If it really worked like a charm, you wouldn't have gain the weight back.  The truth of the whole 'dieting' thing is... You have to change your lifestyle.  If you don't, you'll spend your lifetime losing and regaining.  Usually, until you give up.  You've just got to get into a better eating pattern, and start doing some type of regular exercise you enjoy enough to stick with.  I'm a big fan of walking.  You don't get winded, or sore, or need to buy special equipment, and just about anyone can do it.Once you master that, you'll NEVER have to worry about your weight again... for the rest of your life!  That's the ONLY thing that really works like a charm!
