Overindulging in food is not nearly as bad as smoking. Come on, we're not talking about the heffers that appear on the TV. Most people will say they could stand to lose anywhere from 5 to 25 pounds. If I was 25 pounds over weight and I smoked, I'd still attack the smoking first. It's way more detrimental than being a tad overweight.

The reason they say not to tackle both at the same time is because people will often fail at one, and then feel like a failure, so give up on the 2nd. If you feel you can do both at the same time, all the power to you, but for most people, success is enhanced by climbing one mountian at a time.

And I'm sorry, but caring for a child is not considered exercise. I've tried that one. :d

you might as well be discussing this with a hockey puck, nanner.

Can I drop Kevin off at your house? You'll lose all the weight you need, I promise you that. When Kevin plays hockey, I'm on the blades, when he's on the bike, I'm on the bike... when he's out back shootin hoops, I'm right there with him. Keep in mind that it's summer year round here so I have a lot more out door time then the rest who have to sit through winter. but I can truthfully say that having a child in my case really is a method of staying fit... for me.

I've got a long way to go for that one.

Running after a kid can be good exercise. My problem is that I was on steroids for a bone marrow disease and put on some additional weight from that. Now that I'm off of them, it should be relatively easy. As far as the smoking- that will be the difficult feat, but I've done it before so I feel pretty confident.

I wish you the best Bam, I know you'll do great. Do you have any kind of support system or friends you can count on?

I know about the steroid thing, my son takes them every now and then when his lungs deplete. He's gained a lot for a 9 year old and struggles with the extra weight afterwards.

Thanks! I've had to do the steroids off and on pretty much all of my life, so I'm used to it. Not much of a support system or anything, but I'm pretty good at accomplishing goals.

If you are excercising, you don't need to think low calorie. You need to think low fat/healthy fat.

Do you like salmon or tuna?

If you're like me and don't like to cook (or can't cook), Lean Cuisine etc make some decent meals.

[BIRD33]

I can't go to the register with Lean cuisine and feel like a man afterwards.Sorry.

[Banana]

A grilled piece of chicken or fish on a salad or rice is always a good meal.

Let them think it's for your girlfriend or something- throw a 6 pack of beer in there and they won't think anything of it
