About two weeks ago, under the strict supervision of my girl, I followed her input and change around my nutrition completely.
No dairy.
No wheat.
No fried foods.
Lean meat.
No refined sugars.
Result, I am back to 220lbs, losing about a pound a day. I also cut back on the portions, which is also crucial. I am not even exercising a whole lot, if I swam every day, or ran or went to the gym, the weight would be coming off even faster. Not to mention, I do feel much more energized, I can concentrate much better and just feel better overall. However, due to the drastic changes in lifestyle, I sleep much more. I guess it's the body coping with the changes, my girl said that it should take another week or so until my body fully gets used to the new regime.
I'm loving it - sub-200 here I come!

Good for you bro! I lost over 100lbs last year (20 came back when I started drinking beer again, but what can you do? I love beer!)
Anyway, "No wheat and No dairy" is a BAD idea.
You need a well ballanced diet... cut the fried stuff and high sugar, but wheats and dary is are nessasary if you want to keep any muscle mass.
Here's my success story and pics -->>>. Hope this helps.
Getting started is the hardest part, and you're already on the right track. Best luck man!
