That's impressive !!!! Bonus points ,, chorlesterol went from 243-165 .. all my other #'s just as dramatic .. I'm better than when i was 25 .. (smoking 3 packs a day then),, after a self distructive youth last 20yrs. have been damage control .. If I knew you then i could have been a leper ..

During the summer I do a bag salad lunch. Topped SPARINGLYwith a lite salad dressing. During the cooler/solder months I bring in canned soup, the "healthy" type that are lower in fat, cholesterol and sodium.
My personal fave is the grilled chicken and sausage gumbo. :drool:

I also drink water and TRY to eat some fruit & veggies to balance things out. I'm not loosing weight, but I'm not putting any on either.
I will try and tweak the menu so as to promote some weight loss.
