chicken is great also. but no breading on any of it. Red meats are for muscle building, so if you are trying to lose, then keep away from the red meat until you lose, then go back to the reds to build muscle.

Fish, and only fresh water fish, the salt water fish has too much sodium. Little sodium and alot of protein. Greens have alot of protein and the average person needs to drink at least half their body weight in ounces of water. I drink at least 140 oz. a day even though I am not 280lbs :) But the water flushes the fat and helps you keep hydrated with the workouts.

I, like several others that have already posted, started to change my lifestyle and eating habits several months ago. Horry County Fire/Rescue, SC has an individual that has developed a program for the entire department. His name is Michael Medieros and he has also worked with personnel on an individual basis if they needed more work. I was one of those people. I have been overweight my entire life....well at least since about 4th grade. Growing up my nickname was "Heavy' for obvious reasons. When I first started dating my wife, I weighed a ridiculous 315 lbs and I am 5' -10". The only known medical issue is that I had high cholesterol that was controlled with a "statin medication". I am proud to say that as of right now, I weigh 230 lbs and I am feeling incredible. My goal is to get into the 190's and I know that I can. I have not had my annual physical yet but I anticipate coming off the med's. My wife and I watch the TV show "TBL" every week and I have gotten alot out of it. Healthy eating habits and exercise are simple to change. I am not out killing myself with workouts at the gym 7 days aweek and I am certainly not starving myself. Good Luck to all of you and be safe at there. If you interested in contacting the Horry County Wellness Coordinator, he can be reached at 843-915-5190 M-F 8:00-17:00

Lots of Fresh Green Veggies everyone.... and fruit. Try to leave out Apples and carrots due to the high carbs they have. It may be healthy carbs but those foods are for maintaining, not losing. anything to get the heart rate racing and the sweat pouring is a good workout :)

I didn't add my height with my weight before. I am 5'11" and would like to be 185, 26 pounds to go :)

Im up for the challenge. I have been trying to lose weight for awhile now. My starting weight is 154 and I would like to get down to about 135. Hopefully I can do it.

OK....I must say that this is the most fantastic idea. I live in Cody Wyoming and I just finished the "Cody's Biggest Loser Program". It was a great way for me to be held accountable for my weight and I met new people and I also got my hubby into it and he lost and now we both feel great! There is another one starting and I will be joining that one also because there are few more pounds I want to take off. My starting weight was 262lbs and I got down to 211lbs in 12 weeks!! It takes alot of commitment and heart but if you have it, you can do it. I would be glad to help anyone out as far as advice if anyone needs any. I have dieted pretty strictly and I got a trainer to help me with my exercise plan and WOW, I feel wonderful. I went from jogging on the treadmill for 45 seconds and being outta breath to joggin 20 minutes and feeling good. Just hit me up for info in you need. I think health is something we all take too lightly until we truely understand how your body feels with improvement. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!

Check out www.crossfit.com

I've dome a lot of physical training and I think this approach is the best I've seen, both philosophically and in terms of the hard science behind it.

Stay Safe,
