Re: Getting back in shape -
Backcountry Forum
I lost a lot of weight - 28 pounds- by keeping busy and dumping all simple sugars (breads,pastas, bagels, etc.) eating turkey and chicken breast(no skins), tuna, all sorts of salads with just a sprinkling of favorite cheeses and oils (just a sprinkling! need some taste), fresh vegetables, and fruits. I would start out my day with a banana, work to an apple, maybe a small tin of tuna or sardines, then the small salad (which was loaded with onion, tomato, black and green olives, celery, whatever...),to an orange, maybe another apple, to veggies and chicken or turkey breast ( sometimes just sliced like cold-cuts)....NO ice cream!!! No dairy except the sprinkling of cheese on the salad and low fat or no fat milk once a day. Nothing to eat after 7...went to bed at 10-11pm. My blood tests are very good. This was started in November 2004. As of today, I have kept 20 of those pounds off. This last week I climbed my first 4000 footer since the last oil crisis and have eaten like a pig because "I deserve it"...which caused me to gain all that weight in the first place.
