I eat Weight control oatmeal in the morning. Usually some fish, chicken, or lean turkey for lunch grilled with vegies, and then a MetRX meal supplement mixed with milk for dinner. For snacks I stick with some kind of fruit. Works well!

I'm in the process of losing a lot of weight. I've lost about 40 lbs and then Christmas and the Vegas trip came and I gained about 10 back. I mostly eat a very regimented diet, drink lots of water, dont' drink sodas (even diet), and I walk about 2 miles a day. Once I lose some more weight I'm going to start jogging some of those two miles, right now it would reak havoc on my knees.

My reasons for doing so are this:

- I'm single but don't enjoy the benefits of being a bachelor because I lack the confidence in my physical appearance to "make contact".

- I look at pictures of myself and say "Man do I really look that fat?!"

- I find it easier to conceal carry when I'm not so wide in the middle.

- I just like the way I look better when I'm thinner, and I haven't been like that since I was in the Army.
