Do you need to lose weight?

Tweet

I have done it all, slim fast, south beach, atkins, stillman and I just can't keep the weight off [I'm 5'5" and weight in at 175 pounds]. I've decided to go back to slim fast and really stick to it until I lose 25 pounds and then switch to south beach to maintain the weight. I'm interested to know if this sounds like a crackpot plan to you and if you have any success with other ideas.
