LOL at the "Old Phart" training regimen. That's about what I do myself. Plus running around after my elementary school age kids (and not succeeding).

I'm 43 years old and need to lose some weight. I'm running 4 to 5 times per week, 3 miles each time. I started in August and have lost about 30 pounds so far. I'm about half way to my goal but seem to have hit a plateau. I started at 255, am now (and have been for a few weeks) 226 and would like to get down to around 200.

Any suggestions to get the weight coming off again? I think I need to totally stop drinking alcohol, that is the only thing that has changed the last few weeks. When I drink not only do I add a bunch of empty cals to my diet but I don't watch what I eat as well either.
I started on the special K diet and walking fast about 2 miles 4 times a week. I was 290 lbs, November 1st i weighed 272lbs, at christmas i weighed 252lbs and today i weigh 243lbs my goal weight is 210 sure hope i can make it. for those who havent heard of it basically i eat a bowl of cerial for breakfast and lunch and attempt to eat a sensible dinner, put down the soda's and only drink water and coffee with artificial sweeteners of course. iv also found that since special K pretty much has little flavor it can be substituted with pretty much any cerial with the same caloric intake such as cherio's or even the low sugar oatmeals as well. now after about 3 days i felt a little weak woozy i would say and checked my blood sugar which normally ran about 120 or so and found that it had dropped and pretty much hovers at 80 which couldnt be no more perfect. the weak and woozyness feelings past on day 4 as my body got use to the adjustment. I also noticed that it took less food to fill me up at dinner time. my wife started thinking there was something wrong with her cooking since i was'nt going for seconds. since i started this diet i feel much better. Its been very hard for me to stick too since where i work at the fire dept everybody in the community brings us left over food and goodies from their parties and such, but i have done well my willpower hasnt faded much. the other upside is breakfast and lunch all weel cost under $10, saving me lots of money to buy more things for my guns!!!

[b]That sounds pretty good. Keep up the good work. I would advise being careful about the artifical sweetners though. They may be worse than sugar. Especially Aspertame. Check out the following sites, there are many more on the web.

I'm pretty active. even when I am home all day in front of the computer I will still do some weight training. stay conditioned for martial arts. snowboard as much as possible. and if there's no snow I rollerblade or swim or pretty much everything. I like to push myself.
