I needed to lose some weight. I went from 220 pounds to 200 pounds in
 a month.
      I went on a one steak or fish salad a day diet plus a one a day
 vitamin pill.
      Salad dressing OK. No wheat. You'll save money on food.

      The steak and fish for the needed protein and the salad for roughage.
 No salad and
      you won't poo for days. Some dried fruit now and then if you get
 really hungry but
      only if you get really hungry. If you are not hungry from time to
 time you are not
      losing weight.

      Rode my bicycle at least 5 miles every day. Other sustained exercise
 like running
      will work. Horse Power needed to ride the bike consumes fat or food
 fuel.

      I have a scale that is supposed to have a resolution of .1 pound but
 I don't
 think it
      is that good. More like .2 or .3 pound resolution. Every day I was
 somewhat lighter
      in weight. About a half pound a day. It is important to weigh your
 self after you
      empty your bladder and bowls and while you are naked. The scale gives
 you positive
      feedback so you know the diet is working.

      I also noticed I lost weight while I was sleeping. Curious?  I
 applied the laws of
      thermodynamics and decided body temperature was causing me to lose
 heat to the
 cooler
      atmosphere. It takes fuel to generate heat or HP. Fuel weighs. Those
 of us in the
      engine biz know that all too well. The body burns fat to make heat.

      The accurate scale is the key.

    Get the book "Good Calories, Bad Calories" by Gary Taubes. Published in
    June 2007, this book saved my life. In six months I lost 35 pounds,
    without exercising, never feeling hungry..
    Everything your government has been saying about diet is bogus, and this
    book tells you why and who puts out the bogus info.
    Taubes spent 7 years reviewing other studies, pointing out the bogus
    interpretations and faulty study constructs.
    He interviewed over 500 scientists, medical association directors, and
    politicians to put together a picture of how bogus ideas are promoted
    into public policy.

    A great read, documented with 140 pages of footnotes.

     From a thermodynamics point of view swimming takes less time as the
 heat transfer
    rate from skin to water is higher than skin to air.

  Use Chinese diet method, very effective..............use one chopstick!!

 So you lost almost four gallons of av gas. ;-)  That's a great way to
 extend your range.  It's also a lot cheaper than trying to lose 22
 pounds from your air frame.

Cabbage works great as a stable for dieting. It adds hardly nothing and can
keep the hunger pains at bay plus very nutrious. Stay away from bread
(grains) otherwise you will never lose the tummy and keep carbs to a
minimum. If you drink sodas and and sweet tea, stop, you will lose ten
pounds just from not drinking that stuff and drink plenty of water, unsweet
tea is ok. The same with coffee, no cream, no sugar. Do not overdue the
excercise especially in the summer or when it's hot and get overheated,
watch your electrolytes, Powerade/Gatorade can help not just water and if
you start to feel sluggish stop and cool down with a wet towel, shower or
bath, heat stroke is no joke. Losing weight does not have to be a suicide
mission. Your doing great Paul congrats.
