I have lost weight, by changing just a few things .I am 63 years old and was at 201 pounds . Army weight was 155 . So I really don,t exercise much , but my job is very physical .I lay floors for a living . Here is what you need to do .1 do not drink pop diet or other wise . Not only does it put weight on you , it makes you want to eat more. Stay away from anything with High Fructose corn syrup ,check your labels . Do not eat corn . White bread , wheat bread will also make you fat. Use only real butter , olive oil , or Macadamia oil to cook with. If you eat bread buy Ezekiel 4:9 , they make 3 or 4 kinds . MAKING these changes alone will automatically get you 15 LBS off your weight , and you will feel better . Drink water ,I cheat with apple juice every now and again, and yes I do cheat, but not a lot. I have lost 17 lbs 183 with no real effort just a little will power.

Down 21lbs. In 2 month's. Running 6 miles a day only thing stopping me from running more are my shins start killing me . So cardio is good going to start doing cardo 3 times a week and start really lifting. Anyone have any recommendations for a good supplement ?
Protein is a great supplement for lifting if that is what you are asking about it for. Also, Glutamine works.
If you are looking for supplements for losing weight, I'm no help.

Hey everybody, so I had a Forrest Gump moment this morning. I went out for a 7 mile run, got to the intersection to come home but decided to turn left and keep running. Ended up with a 13.56 mile jog in 2:28:46. I'm not bragging (how could I with an 11 minute mile pace) - Legs are sore but I could hold a conversation the whole time and really enjoyed the view of all the local lakes and parks.
I started cycling this week and I *think* it's helped my running.
anyway, how's everybody else been doing? As I look through the last few pages there's lots of "when the weather gets better" comments. Have you guys and girls been getting out there? I myself have not been to gym in the last month and its been glorious being outside!
Down to 210 from 237. Been getting up early and doing a full 1hr. cardio sometime tredmill sometimes run out side or elliptical usually ends up being 7 or 8 miles. Then after work I do 30min. cardio 30min. lifting with 2 rest days mixed in.
I was able to overhead squat 200lbs tonight.
I'm happy
I forgot to share...
Last Friday was the official weigh-in for the "Biggest Loser" competition at work...I am officially the Biggest Loser!
It was a very close race, but I won by a hair, 11.7% to 11.4% total loss since January, it totaled approx 30lbs lost for me!
Now I am around the weight I want to be, so I just need to maintain.
