    Super down to earth guy and not some crazy organic health nut job that dosen't prescribe drugs. If you're sick he'll give you the right stuff. His main goal is to keep you from being sick by eating right and getting the proper vitamins.

    Wow, I didn't know people still relied on nutrients from the food they ingest to obtain the proper vitamins their bodies needed!

    I haven't really lost any weight, but that hasn't been my goal... I'm 5' 10" @ 155-160 lbs... I'm not sure losing weight would be healthy... For all of this year, I've been eating out a lot less and bringing my lunch to work... although this was mostly driven by a desire to save money...

    However, I have been base-training to get back into XC mtn bike racing this year... Since starting in early Feb, I've lost about an inch off my waistline... and have much better endurance on bike rides...

    I still have a bit of a gut I'd like to lose, but at my age (nearing 39) I know that will take time and consistent work.

    I was 225ish at one point and just through changes in my diet I was able to get down to 175ish in about a year and a half. No matter what I did, I couldn't get any lighter. Then I went to work for the Post Office as a carrier. Now I walk about 10 miles a day minimum plus go to the gym three nights a week and am down to 160ish. The last time I was this light was when I was in high school 20 years ago. Additional pluses from the job are that I am all muscle-no fat anywhere and I have much better stamina.

    I lost a bunch of weight about 3 months ago when i got really sick... went from almost 145 to a touch under 120. It was disgusting.

    Still fighting to get back from that. I can't seem to keep any weight on my body anymore, and it's almost to the point that i just crash everyday at about 8pm when my body has just run out of anything to burn. Tapeworm?

    At almost 6'3", a few years back I was about 185. I cut soda and high-fructose corn syrup out of my diet (mostly, hard to avoid in ketchup and other places), and lost about 17 pounds over the course of a year. Didn't change anything dramatically, probably have gotten more exercise as a result of Ashley being around, she's an active sort and likes going on bike rides and stuff.

    I was a very lanky 155 in College eating nothing but Taco Bell and Pizza Hut. Weird.

    Cutting pop and limiting high fructose corn syrup did nothing for my weight. It's been over two years now, and no change.

    I'm about 6'1", and at my heaviest I was around 210-215. I got into a bad habit of eating fast food for lunch, and breakfast if I woke up late (which was often). I had already cut out sodas, but was never a big soda drinker so it didn't really help much. After moving to Pa., I worked out of the house, was broke, and didn't know anyone, so I ate at home every day. I was down to 163 in eight months. Then I moved back to Indiana, and started hanging out with my old friends, who are all drinkers. I've been back for four years and I stay around 180, though I need to eat a bit better (and I've been pretty actively doing so lately). I'd like to lose my gut and be a bit more toned.

    I hear ha. At 16 I was 6'1" and weighed 140 pounds. My mom was a manager at Burger King, and one of my friends was a Taco Bell manager, so I got free crap food all the time, and drank Dr. Pepper like it was going out of style.
