Staying,
I adjusted my eating lifestyle over the last several weeks to a protien and high quality carb approach.
I learned it while listening in on a conversation at the gym.
I can eat a bunch, but I try not to eat any processed carbs/sugars... e.g. bread, pasta, sweets. I pretty much drink water, coffee, and tea only.
I periodically...every 3 to 10.... days eat what ever I want. But, the go to diet is healthy proteins...chicken, beef, fish....and quality carbs...like spinach, cabbage, squash etc. I use cheese, mayonnaise, apple cider vin., olive oil, seasonings etc. All the time too.
When I was a drunk I was stuck at about 250. It was in a pathetic high bp diabetes and death inducing state.
When I quit being a drunk, I slowly, as in still going, improved my diet and ramped up the physical activity.
I am sitting at 215 today. My lowest weight was 197, but that was a lot of water weight.
I believe diet is 80%. Diet changes everything.
Thanks.
