p.s. The OP suggests eating fruit to lose weight. FYI If someone is really trying to lose weight, fruits are mostly natural sugars, simple carbs that the body will convert to and store as fat if there's no current calorie defecit. Yes, fresh fruit typically comes as a source of fiber and is better than candy, cookies or potato chips but are still simple carbs.

This isn't correct. Fruit has a much lower glycemic index than most simple carbs. In fact, most endurance athletes simply can't get enough glycogen stores from fruit alone so they substitute with brown rice, sweet potatoes, and other healthier complex carbs. At least this is what I've read from people with sports nutrition degrees. Of course there are those on here who will disagree. Even "experts" can't agree. So who do you believe? YOUR BODY.....period.

I bottomed out at about 178 a few weeks ago and am about 181 now (the same as in my profile photo from June 2). Altogether that is about a 30 pound total loss since November and is as slim as I want to be. Have had to buy some new clothes but am just wearing the rest a little baggy until I need to replace them.
No longer working overnights and therefore really can't skip meals like I had been. So I have cut way back on portion size and am limiting anything with corn syrup. No longer the "clean up crew" when my kids don't finish their meals either. Hope to get back in the groove of regular cardio in a couple of weeks when I finish the family vacation cycle I am on right now.

It's really not that outrageous. Nothing I'm saying requires a farking phd in nutrition, just a good amount of reading real factual sources on the topic. I would gladly bow to those who know more if they showed up.
At least you didn't interject any CrossShit type advice in here!
