Easiest diet I have ever been on....
« on: April 13, 2011, 09:15:39 AM »
2 months now and I have lost 34 pounds. "Counting Calories"   Started with 1800 a day and cut it down a little every week. Now I'm down to about 1300 a day and still losing. The first 10 days were tough but the results speak for themselves. The only bad thing is my wife said I have to get rid of my 2XL shirts and go down to XL  :2vrolijk_21:.She is making me a quilt with all the shirts. My blood pressure is lower and I feel great. The last thing I reduced also was my sodium. That made a big difference with retaining water. Sometimes it's easier to do this with other friends so share it with someone else and get the weight off. Looking forward to my bike getting better mpg and going faster  :huepfenlol2:.

1800 per day with moderate cardio exercise 3 - 4 times a week will also help with the blood sugar issues is easier than counting carbs and weighing the food crap. Good book to use as a guide is the CalorieKing calorie, fat & carbohydrate counter or go to the website calorieking.com even has listings for 200 fast food chains. Just sayin. Congrats on your weight loss.

 Also taking your dog for a walk is a good thing to add to your diet and it makes your dog very happy. You don't need to kill yourself, just take it one step at a time. My sister started it 3 days ago and she is down 5 pounds. It's almost addicting.

If you have a smart phone, there are some pretty good apps that can help you stay on track.  I'm using "My Fitness Pal" which is available free for the DROID and iPhone.  The search feature works great for looking up info for traditional home cooked meals, pre-packaged foods (even has a bar-code scanner) and chain restaurant menus.  It also has a "recipe" feature that will calculate the nutritional value of something based on the ingredients you enter.
