Height Vs Weight

I've been on a milion diets and I've lost weight on all of them. The problem is keeping the weight off permanently. Here's what I decided to do this year and it's working really well for me. I'm eating whatever I want but I do weigh and or measure all of my portions. I eat a salad with a low fat dressing before lunch and dinner. Half of my plate is vegetables. A quarter of my plate is protein and the other quarter is brown rice, sweet potatoes or whole wheat pasta. Breakfast is typically oatmeal and fruit but I heard on Oprah yesterday that people who eat bacon and eggs for breakfast have a metabolism that is 84% higher than those who don't eat that kind of breakfast so I'm switching. I have two snacks. One is fruit and the other is a 100 calorie pack of my choice. But here's the key. You have to move more. I bought a pedometer and worked my way up to walking 15,000 steps per day. I've lost 8 lbs so far this month and I don't feel deprived. What I'm trying to do is to make lasting lifestyle changes because this time I want to take it off for good. Best of luck to you.
