Jon, kudos to you if you do pull through, in particular about the smoking.

I've read articles stating it takes ~4 years for the lungs to get as good as they will get and ~8 years for the brain to get back to a normal chemical balance.

So you got some time on your hands?

and yeah, i hear ya bout the clothes.. i'm not as thin as i used to be thanks to my wife's delicious cooking!

the trick to staying thin is to get up at noon.
no joke, because you get up at noon you only really eat two meals, and maybe a snack.
plus it helps with stress, which can also make it harder to lose weight.

of course you also cant have a job...


and this coming year im turning 18....
so im buyin a motorcycle. thats my resolution.

its a good point. getting a late start to the day cuts down on your intake, but, it makes it tough to make it to the 8 oclock class, meeting, job, whatever.

eat small portions throughout the day as opposed to big meals. your stomach will shrink as you do this, and then you'll feel full faster when you do have an entire meal.

i was 250# in 1997. I had nice, supple breasts. Got down to 180 or so, ran a few marathons, now I hover around 190-200 most of the time (a decent weight for my height...6'1"). Its all in your head...

thats also true, but its very hard to eat healthy in small doses, most "small dose" foods are things like ritz bitz (which i love), chips, etc.

a friend of my dads lost nearly 40 lbs just decreasing his portion size when he eats meals. like having 2 tamales instead of 3 tamales, etc.

for a second there you had me questioning your gender *L* I'm not a diet person by any means but my wife struggled with an eating disorder for years. Aside from excersize the easiest way to loose a few pounds is simply healthy, balanced, average sized meals. My aunt was eating virtually nothing for a while trying to loose 10 pounds. She got laid up from some surgery so my sister in law came over and started cooking her healthy average meals. She dropped 12 pounds simply by diet change AND increased the amount of food she ate.

You could also try the fist diet. If it's bigger than your fist don't eat all of it.
