To lose regain : 95% is the diet, 5% is the exercise. 

If I work out too hard too much - I get blood sugar fluctuation and get really hungry.  Moderatevexercise worked best for me. Walking yoga..etc.. But then I already had a good muscle mass so even moderate exercise allowed me to keep them. 

I personally did not use shakes - the are liquid - slider food and would leave me hungry...instead I used dense proteins , fat and low carbs veggies... Nuts as snacks. 

Good luck.

Don't feel too bad. I'm on the OH boards regularly and I still make poor choices every day.

oOne thing missing from your plan that is key for many people is using a tracker like MyFitnessPal to monitor nutrition and steps every day. Once you start tracking, it becomes 2nd nature very quickly.

Great attitude Lucy!

I got back on track 2 weeks ago. Had been ignoring the scale, not good. Saw a number I havent seen since 2010!
