You really can do this, Joel.....

Start out your day with some grapefruit juice, since your cholesterol is probably high.....a cup should do it, then drink your tea or coffee....keep water on your desk at all times...drink lots to flush out your system.

Eat every two to three hours .....chicken, fish and a little bit of lean meat per week....fibrous cereals like Red River or CreamofWest or oatmeal....

Stay away from the bad fats. Cook only with olive oil; better yet, broil or bake boneless skinless chicken breast....there are some marvelous fat free marinades that will give you some variety of taste...eat fresh fruits and veggies or lightly steamed....

And, take walks. Start with small walks and work up to bigger ones. Do crunches four times a week to start and planks..you can do them in your office....

Measure success in terms of a lifetime not a month and I promise you'll see results.
