    Rings indicate a tree needs to lose weight?

        What method did you use to get to need new holes when most of the world is going in the other direction?

          it’s just calories in vs calories out. A better diet paired with more exercise.

          Get an idea of how many calories you burn in a day (you can search for a BMR calculator to give you a ballpark), and eat less than that. I started going on runs, and eating a slightly healthier diet.

            I have tried about every diet and that one didn’t work at all for me. After all the common ones I did Atkins for a few months to great success, but couldn’t keep it up. Then the internet renamed Atkins induction to keto and I tried that for about six months a few times and always failed and put on all I lost.

            Then from low carb I found zerocarb and that was the first easy diet. Now zerocarb is called carnivore and I’m still on it, slowly becoming thinner

              If you eat less calories than you burn, you will lose weight. That’s just science - that works universally. I don’t really think these fad diets are a good way to view health. There’s a lot more to a healthy diet than just losing weight - your body needs carbohydrates, in fact carbs should be your primary source of calories and foregoing all carbs isn’t a healthy way to lose weight.

            I’m talking about smaller belts. I was asking for how they lost weight. I only know of one diet that works

      My dad wore suspenders to work for years. I’m beginning to understand why. I get tired of having to constantly readjust my pants. And that’s with a belt.

      I have been thinking of switching. Suspenders make way more sense. With a belt, my pants still fall down unless I have the belt so tight it cuts off circulation. It’s just cinching the pants around my waist and movement (such as going from standing to sitting and vice versa) can cause them to slip. But suspenders literally hold them up from your shoulders. Ain’t no way they’ll slip.

    After two days I finally get that you’re not talking about non existent rings around the belt holes but are talking about the darker buckle lines on the belt that are inbetween the belt holes.
