Weight loss has been universally regarded, particularly by obese people like me, to be a long and winding quest that never seems to end. I always long for that day when Id finally be able to exude elegance through my slim and fit physique wrapped by sleek, body-hugging dresses. I know Ive done all I could to get me that enviable, svelte figure, but to no avail. I had to contend with the demands of my daily chores which are naturally given more priority, and Im left with no more time to exercise. On the brink of frustration, I resorted to online help. Regular surfing and persistent research resulted in new learning which I immediately put into practice. My efforts paid off as I was able to cook up new exercise routines which proved to be ideal for my lifestyle, and which yielded an unbelievable 20-kg weight drop in 4 months!
