Thanks for the welcomes. It was an eye opener to see exactly how much more food you can get to eat with veggies and fruits. I know some people aren't real fond of them, but they help with the fiber and sweet desires.
Have any of you guys used the Hungry Girl cookbooks? Basically she tries to keep all meals close to 300 calories. One of the times before that i lost 20lbs I did kinda basically that.. keeping my meals around 3-400 calories, stacks at about 100.. and I went to the gym every night after work. i don't recommend working out that many nights in a row. You fatigue. Drastically. The working out part is the part i'm having problems with right now. I used to have a gym membership, I don't anymore, and my brother used to go with me every night but now he won't work out with me. Slacker. And I don't have anyone else to workout with.
