From a recorded high of 216lbs I have dropped to 189. I was a fat boy, I am only 5'8". Losing weight is really hard to do, but here is what happened to me. I was clearing some land for my mom and dad in the summer heat, and either the heat or the physical exertion got to my stomach. My appetite just disappeared, and where once the thought of a 3/4 pound Hardies Thick Burger made my mouth water, now it makes me sick just to think about it. My whole diet changed. Now when I'm hungry, I am hungry for things like green garden salads, and light sandwiches. I no longer like the taste of fried foods either. Also, I used to eat huge portions, and now I am satisfied with small portions, and have all kinds of energy.<br /><br />As a side note, this all began before I quit drinking. And over the summer I have been working on clearing this land for my folks, and I have taken some side jobs in construction that have been hot and physically demanding, and the more I work and sweat, the less I want to eat. Odd huh?
