From someone who's father was almost obese and doing MUCH better now (and still sailing harder and fishing harder than most people my age) congrats man.

Getting some exercise and eating right you'll feel better both mentally and physically.

Clementines and Tangerines are great snacks too.... if ya get good at it you can strip the peel in one piece.

So ....if you're not eating all that stuff, what're you doing with it ? If you want I can pick it up and take it away for you.

Yeah, right, just what I need, but they are gooood!

Congrats Larry, your going about it the right way. Sounds like you've entered the eating to live rather than living to eat stage.

Two of the best things to cut out of one's diet that makes a huge difference in losing weight and overall health are PROCESSED WHITE SUGAR and WHITE FLOUR.

Use less processed sugar (i.e. natural sugars like fruits, etc. are fine) and use whole wheat as much as possible. It makes a huge difference. And many places now will make you a pizza on whole wheat dough and it tastes very good in my opinion.

It's more a lifestyle diet change than a one-time diet but it really makes you feel healthier.

I recommend making hearty sandwiches on wheat or veggie wraps! Instead of mayo try light italian dressing or vinegar oil. They are quite tasty...

Oh and another thing... beware of poultry.

Exercise!! Yes you can cut out all that junk food and lose weight, but exercise is the key to keeping it off! if you get a good amount of exercise during your week, you can have that pizza one day a week. If you dont want to do the exercise, you'll be stuck eating carrots and that boring stuff forever! get out and run, and have a slice of pizza or two a week.

As long as you're active you can eat some snacks and not turn into a fatty!

Just eat smart through out the week, and you can enjoy that pizza once in awhile!
