Since March, I have shed 40#. Pretty much cut out all sugar and most carbs. Lots of fruit and veggies, lots of meat. Out on the bike 7 to 12 miles each morning. Glucose dropped from 188 to 100. Sleep better. No hip and back pain. BP dropped 20 points. Better stamina. Just a heads up, if you are eating fruit, you are eating carbs. Lots of sugar and not good for weight loss.

I am thin no matter what i eat. thank God. One of my best friends growing up was like that. He had an appetite like no other as well! When he was at the house mom always asked him where he had the room for it all? Lol. He’s still skinny and tall to this day. A lot of his family are tall and lanky people though. Guess it can be hereditary to some point? Yes, I do believe that heredity plays a large roll……potentially contributing to a fast metabolism. I’m blessed with a fast metabolism, thankfully…..because I overeat pretty much every meal. When I was younger, I could eat (and often did) eat 3 Whoopers, a large fry, and large drink….. at 6’ tall stayed under 170 pounds I no longer eat like that, but do inhale a lot of calories, while hovering just over 200 pounds. Though, I am fairly active…..which certainly helps. memtb

It really is a great video on how to have a good diet and be successful at sticking to it. It's from a guy who knows what the "F" he is talking about unlike many of the guys posting here. Too bad nobody has the time to give it even a few minuets.

When I eat my 1 meal a day I eat what ever I want and the weight stays off! Good call Sir! Anyone tired of being old? Nope, because it sure beats the alternative lol

That is a lot of progress. good for you.
Lost 26lbs in 10 weeks (was 250 - 6'1"). The first 15 or so was easy. Got a bad leg (titaium) so I'm doing low impact, walking, dumbbells.
I cut way back on carbs (pasta, bread, rice, potatoes). Keep track of everything I eat(calories and carbs).
It's getting harder now to loss.
PS. was asystematic but had 2 blockages had 2 stents 3 weeks ago.

Started losing weight last September because it hurt to bend over and tie my shoes. Last October at my annual physical, the Dr said I am diabetic. I cranked it down hard and lost 35 pounds this last year. I have 10 to 15 more to go. Last A1C was back to 5.7. It should be even lower next month. A bonus, my cholesterol is way better and more balanced. I stopped drinking much milk, no soda or beer, little bread or potatoes. Sandwich is open faced or NO BREAD. More green stuff and meat! I want desserts but shy away from them. I drink lots of water with lemon and little tea. I'm getting used to the diet and may worry the neighbors for decades to come. RZ.

These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Staying at 180, no problem, eat what I want. You are fortunate stxhunter! I can gain 30 lbs. a month, all I would have to do is to eat 3 squares a day, been that way since a very early age. I have conditioned myself to eat "Intelligently" long ago because of that. I gain all the weight I lost do to injuries that restricted my mobility, I have been a weight trainer and runner for decades, when I had to stop I gained it quick, but lost it just as fast. In any case I am jealous of people with great metabolisms!

It is an informative and well thought out video. I’ll certainly employ some of it in my routine. I could do without all the “F” bombs though.
