GH
ParticipantFrom my personal experience I gained around 80 lbs while working a cubicle job over some 12 years.
In 2007 we gave up eating ANYTHING where the majority ingredient is sugar.
In 2008 I was laid off and started doing some computer repair type work to bring in a few dollars here and there and subsequently got back into a trade type of work (HML or Hard Manual Labor).
I signed up with a personal trainer about 6 months ago who has us lifting weights and doing some 45 minutes of fairly vigorous aerobics.
He has us eating small meals every three hour or so and every three months doing 3 days on no carbs for a month which is the part I have found hardest.
For all this effort I am down a bit more than a pant size and have lost some 35 lbs. The important thing I think is that what I am doing is sustainable.

I also think we should tax people for being a bit too self-satisfied.[/quote]
I’m all for it taxing too much. Too many calories, tax it. To much money, tax it. 😉

Guest[quote=aldante][quote=Allan from Fallbrook][quote=briansd1]What do you guys think of Bill Clinton going vegan?
I think that it’s smart of him. It will stop heart disease and allow him to live a long time.[/quote]
Brian: I do hope Slick Willie lives a long time. Hillary is going to need his wise counsel when she mounts a primary challenge in 2012.
Kidding aside, he looks healthier. Do you think Monica Lewinsky gave up meat, too?[/quote]
Allan,
I am howling right now…..thanks![/quote]haahaha, Allan…
