I just followed a ping you sent my way and saw your weight graph on the side there. That's pretty much what I want to do, go from about 235 to 190 at least. Have any secrets? Or just plain exercise and careful eating? Damn – congrats! I just followed a ping you sent my way and saw your weight graph on the side there.

That in turn gives me the ability to intelligently choose what to eat, to avoid high-calorie foods, and to control hunger. I recommend giving them a try.

As even the good folks at Weight Watchers would have to say (tho i can't speak for them, i know the party line pretty well ;-) "Results Not Typical." In fact, the rate of weight loss you sustained all the way to goal provides ample testimony to the fact that you are a very determined guy. The program works, if you work it - which too many people do not, alas. Congratulations are definitely in order. Now, please keep us posted as to how the transition to maintenance is going for you (some people may think as your graph goes flatline, "end of story," right? If only it were as simple as that in practice! :-) Hey, Harald: Yo da man!
