mdehnersBlaugh! I've gone from Married Fat, through Bear and now am nearing "Govenator". All in 7 yrs, though the greatest gain as been this yr. Time to get back, at least into my 38" jeans;>!Middle-aged guys should give up thoughts of getting into thier 32"ers!
Weight loss isn't that difficult for me. 'Course, part of it is that I recognise that lard gained over a number of yrs isn't going to dissapear within the 1st couple of weeks, so I don't get disapointed and drop out like many folks. I'm also very Competitive...with myself. The last time I dieted, I actually went too far. I kept thinking, "that wasn't so hard, let's go for another couple of pounds". I made it down to 127#. Not pretty on a Peasant-framed 5' 10" body;>!
I do my own "spin" on the Paleodiet. I eat all I want of foods that can be eaten Raw. If you can't eat it in a Raw state, you don't eat it PERIOD. That means Meat,Veggies and Fruit. I eat a 1:1:1 of Meat with two Veggies. If I want a desert I eat some fruit. Lots of Water and Walking every AM after log-in and AM e-mails.
It's not spectacular, but in about a yr I lose what I want, without stress and have generally kept it off for an average of 5+ yrs...

Pat
