Me and the Girlfriend was sitting in the living room tonight watching the Biggest Loser.....I made the comment that I would like to go on that show. Then it dawned on me,.....Why can't I do that on my own...I am a big man, and since I have gotten out of the Army, I have gotten bigger and bigger. So to make a long story short, myself and the Woman have made a wager......12 weeks.....she loses 1 pound , I need to lose 1.5 pounds.....if she loses 20 pounds I need to lose 30.......What did I get myself into? Anyone else want to join the competition? Any suggestions on how I can do this?........HELP

Check out the South Beach Diet. Go get the book and read the first portion where it explains how food is used by your body and what is and isn't good.
That in itself is an eye opener.
This diet is not a fad diet but a change of lifestyle diet. I lost 13 pounds in the first two weeks and I was nowhere near obese. I lost 29 overall in about 7 weeks. I've kept most off for two years but I need to get back down a few pounds.
I'm also a fan of Biggest Loser. They have a website

that can help you out. -

Atkins diet much quicker weight drop than south beach, but very restrictive in first 2 weeks.Low carb is the way to go so they say.

I could do that, but I can't leave a trail, so I would have to eat it......

Yea I hit up the web site last night. I have heard of the South Beach Diet, but have not read anything on it, so I will get the book and read it.

I wonder if the Army would let me go back in just to go through BOOT CAMP again to lose the weight?

Sly, great minds think alike. I was just thinking the same thing. A buddy of mine that served with me at Osan AB, Korea in 1986-87 just went back into the service on 10 SEP 08 (Army this time...just like I did) after being out since 1989. He is 43 years old! So I was thinking, sh*t I'm only 3 years older than he is...

Pretend you are too poor to buy food. I don't know how good of an actor you are, I can't act but this last 2 months I really rationed my food, and bought no soda, ice cream, or anything that is bad for me because I was too poor.(I was raiding my penny jar to buy food)
