From someone who's father was almost obese and doing MUCH better now (and still sailing harder and fishing harder than most people my age) congrats man.

Getting some exercise and eating right you'll feel better both mentally and physically.

Clementines and Tangerines are great snacks too.... if ya get good at it you can strip the peel in one piece.

So ....if you're not eating all that stuff, what're you doing with it ? If you want I can pick it up and take it away for you. Yeah, right, just what I need, but they are gooood!

Congrats Larry, your going about it the right way. Sounds like you've entered the eating to live rather than living to eat stage.

Two of the best things to cut out of one's diet that makes a huge difference in losing weight and overall health are PROCESSED WHITE SUGAR and WHITE FLOUR.

Use less processed sugar (i.e. natural sugars like fruits, etc. are fine) and use whole wheat as much as possible. It makes a huge difference. And many places now will make you a pizza on whole wheat dough and it tastes very good in my opinion.

It's more a lifestyle diet change than a one-time diet but it really makes you feel healthier.

I recommend making hearty sandwiches on wheat or veggie wraps! Instead of mayo try light italian dressing or vinegar oil. They are quite tasty...

Oh and another thing... beware of poultry.

fish when you can is the way I do it man

Exercise!! Yes you can cut out all that junk food and lose weight, but exercise is the key to keeping it off! if you get a good amount of exercise during your week, you can have that pizza one day a week. If you dont want to do the exercise, you'll be stuck eating carrots and that boring stuff forever! get out and run, and have a slice of pizza or two a week.

As long as you're active you can eat some snacks and not turn into a fatty!

Just eat smart through out the week, and you can enjoy that pizza once in awhile!

Smile congrats

red grapefruit as a morning fruit choice will boost your metabolism

i'm going to try hoodia made from an african cactus to curb my appetite. the bushmen have been using it for a thousand years
to sustain themselves (prevent hunger) during long hunting trips.

one trick is to decrease your plate size....and eating to late in the evening is a no no because there's less time before you go to sleep to burn off the calories... the hollywood skinnies never eat past 4pm.

i put a little honey in my coffee now... and rarely use sugar....and for the coffee creamer you can buy the fat free....

if you simply starve yourself...your body begins to burn off your muscle tissue (first) and conserve your fat reserves in a self preservation mode.

But if you consume many small healthy snacks (6 small meals a day is preferable to three) to keep the stomach satisfied and continuously working you ->elevate your metabolism to the point that your burning fat even in your resting periods. power walking is much better than jogging because theres less
trauma to the joints and theres no build up of co2 in your blood
which causes fatigue.

buy the all natural peanut butter....because peanut butter has alot
of fat in it actually....so flavor the celery with it rather than trying to see if you can break the guiness book of records for the most peanut butter ever on a celery stick . celery has sodium. sodium attracts water into each of your cells....where as potassium from apples reduces (regulates)the amount of water within each cell .

the additional
drinking of water helps you piss out some of the fat so it doesn't all get stored.
i raise my morning cup of coffee ...to your health BF

long live BIGFISH
