Beverle, Yes, I have. And I'm going to get back to it. But it didn't make any difference really. Well, let me put it this way. I weigh 202 today (up 2 pounds for the week, eating nothing but meat and eggs). That's 18lbs higher than the upper limit for my height in the Air Force. And it's 35lbs higher than what I weighed the last time I looked decent. I'd be willing to settle for 30. My body might be happy at this weight, but I certainly am not. I am SO tired of being fat that I'd pay for 30lbs of liposuction and skin tucks if I could afford them. Thanks. I don't dislike myself; I'm comfortable personally. I'm just getting to hate my body. John Pavao ---------- John: Have you tried weight lifting? More muscles will burn more.. whatever. If people are complimenting you what more are you looking for? Don't get stuck on the pounds (scale). God, I am so full of advice. I have just seen so many people who look fine or even good, but they got an amount in their head and won't let go. My sister is a "stick" and still says "if only I could lose 10 more pounds". I swear she would blow away if she got thinner. Maybe your body is really happy at the weight it is. Shake it up with resistance training and please like yourself. I do. Beverle
