Lay aside every weight

Thanks! It has been surprising easy. I have eaten just about everything I use to just in moderated portions. I think one of the biggest things has been giving up regular soda (coke cola/ pop/ soft drinks)

I would easily go threw 6- 9 cans(12oz) of cola a day! But it has been worth it so far.

A couple of years ago when I found nutritiondata.com and started literally counting the calories in my servings, I was surprised at how many calories were in my meals. So, like you, I simply cut down on serving size, and it made big difference in the weight control department.

Have you tried Diet Pepsi? They've pretty much perfected the diet cola recipe, in my opinion. I drink a diet Rock Star energy drink every work day. I don't drink soft drinks that aren't diet anymore. Too much sugar!

Awesome, Ritchie. You're counting in the right direction. I gained six and lost five again, so I'm at 170. Someone told me today I look like I'm lost somewhere inside my jeans. Hey, I'll take what compliments I can turn things into. HB, BTW.

Yes. I have lost at least two belt sizes myself.
