Bloomington and Putnam IL | We are the same height and I'm a "graduate". Started at 195 or 196 when I was 48 and down to 148 after my morning run today. I limited carbs and sugar (still do) and keep pretty active. Couldn't run around the block when I started (bad left knee) but chased down a bunch on teens last weekend at 53 during a 5K (won the overall at 22:12). Never really was hungry during the process. My favorite lunch is a bag of lettuce, no dressing but with lots of cheese and bacon! Good luck. |
