As of today I have lost 35 lbs

August 1 st I was 420 lbs , I am 40 and I have been lucky no health problems but I knew as I got older I was pushing my luck. Also having a wife thats 16 yrs younger then me , I didnt want to make her a young widow. I decided to have my metabolic rate checked, how many calories did I burn at rest. Was it a genetic or just eating too fucking much. I went and got it tested. At rest I burn 3750 calories that was a real eye opener for me. I decided no fads just 2000 calories a day and I was going to eat only til I was satisfied never to I was full.I was going to record every thing that goes into my mouth. First recording everthing has made me very aware of portions and also 2000 calories is alot of food if you make the right choices. Its been almost two months now and I have lost 35 lbs. I figure after the next 35 then I will start exercising . Right now exercising is very difficult. This has been a real learning experience for me.
