Most of us know what to do; we just have trouble doing it. How do you lose weight? Exercise more and eat less. I know that, and yet I bought and read a couple of books on the subject while I took action, and I lost thirty pounds. Did the authors of those books tell me big ideas that were groundbreaking? No, they simply gave me an action plan and some supporting details to what I already knew had to be done. Welcome to my world.
