Here at That's Fit, we're constantly telling you what we think about things, but sometimes it's nice to know what you think. So from time to time, we'll ask you a question. Don't be afraid to speak up -- we love feedback.

While the necessary ingredients to weight loss may be simple -- consume fewer calories and exercise more -- the actual act of weight loss is anything but easy. Many of us have tried to lose weight and then have given up for one reason or another. It makes me wonder ... when it comes to weight loss, what's your deal breaker?

When I set my mind on losing weight, I do it. I read at http://www.projectweightloss.com about the F-Plan. This plan became famous in 1978, because, at that time, it was the first high-fiber weight loss diet to appear on the market. It was published by Audrey Eyton, a British author. The diet is a high-fiber, but also a low-fat one.

Argh! Today, I bought a can of soup to have at work for lunch, then my boss called a big meeting and ordered pizza for everyone. I was going to stick to having my can of soup until I realized I don't have a can opener. Now what? Seems awkward to go out and buy lunch when the boss has already paid for everyone, but pizza is so fattening ... :(

That's really a good poll.I appreciate your efforts.In my opinion, lack of support and motivation is also a major obstacle for weight loss programs
