Really just eat less and move more. There's no magic bullet...I know things get harder as you get older, but it's really that simple.
One of the girls that I work with says that she's lost 6lbs and dropped a dress size in a month using VP's. Before anyone asks, she says that she's not doing anything else, but I find that kind of hard to believe myself.
IDK, it's all just reducing your calorie intake.
