Sounds like Kojak's got a good thing goin' ..... no need to fix what ain't broken.

Hey Kojak,

Exercise and eating healthy?  -- that'll never ever work  :/O

You'd have much better luck finding some California fad diet or some special "program" from some has-been football player or actress  :D

Kojack:
The trick is to eat healthy by watching the calories but not eating skimpy. Load up things with extras that bulk up the food without adding a bunch of calories. Fill your plate, so when you look at it, it looks filling and you're satified when your done eating. Most of that diet stuff (lean cusine or whatever) is like an appetizer.

Like eat a burger, but make the meat paddy pretty small. Eat it on lite buns and load up on the extra's like lettuce ,tomato, onion and pickles. Pile them on. Squirt on some mustard. You wind up with a huge burger that doesn't have a lot of calories.  E

Grab a couple pitas and stuff it with some turkey and a BUNCH of vegi's till it's overflowing and top it with a vinegar and spices. Throw 3 or 4 big dill pickles on there (they have almost no calories) for a side eat those lite pringles or whatever.

Stir fry is the best though, you can make a heaping pile of that stuff and it tastes great.
I've heard there are studies where people lose weight the quickest by keeping a journal and writing down everything they eat. Not even figuring out the calories, just a log. Not sure why, I guess because you have a reminder that you have to watch it.

BTW dog20, yeah we do usually jog a bit as well. Usually only around 1/8th of a mile at a time, sometimes 2 or 3 times a walk right now.
