I've been losing weight for quite some time now, and I have almost reached my goal. When I do, I am going to apply to some of the local police departments. It's something I have wanted to do for a long time but haven't been able to. I'm really looking forward to this!

    I wish you continued success. I was on the Atkins Diet for about 4 months. I lost 40 pounds. After I stopped the Atkins Diet, I gained 50 pounds.

    Now it's weight watchers for hopefully something that will have lasting effect.

    I wish someone could explain to me why I have the will power to quit smoking while my wife still smokes and to quit drinking while I still go to bars to shoot league pool but I can't quit JUNK FOOD!!!!!!!!!

    Pelican, you need a transfusion of groundhog or cow blood, so you'll like green stuff that fills you up but not out.

    There's a reason why spoiled food turns green . . . think about it.

    Well, back in March, I quit drinking regular soda and switched to diet. Just in doing that I lost 13 pounds. Then I quit eating dessert foods and quit eating fast food also. I began exercising regularly ( not even anything too tough, at first ) and so far I've lost 70 pounds. It's not even that I regulate the quantity of food I eat, just the quality. I count calories, too. It may not work for everyone, but it seems to work for me.

    doom you make it sound a heck of a lot easier than it is, at least for me. Congrats, you'll get there.
