Had to look back to see what I posted on this thread.
Been up and down a little since then. Hit 220 again this winter so got serious and got under 200 in early April. Have stayed under 200 since, but think another 5 to 10 pounds would be good. Down side is I'll have to start wearing a belt or suspenders full time unless I get all new jeans.
For you younger guys, things do change as you age. Until I was close to 30 years old I ate a lot of everything and always stayed under 170 (at 6' 1 1/2"). Then one day I hopped on the scales and saw a 180. That came off quickly, but ever since it has been a battle. Genes probably have a lot to do with it. At 5' 11" my Dad spent most of his life over 250 and also at 5' 11" my brother was at 250 for many years.
Time for a little snack. I'd prefer oreo's and ice cream, but some raw broccoli and carrots with a little ranch dip, and a few wheat thins and cheese will be good too.
