Cross-threading again, but I've really, really cut back on my consumption of stuff in the junk category. I love chocolate and candy, but it just isn't doing me any favours.
I've pretty much switched wholesale over to diet pop - diet Dr. Pepper rules. I can tolerate diet Coke but prefer Diet Pepsi. Diet Ginger Ale is ok too. It's all pretty much downhill from there. I do still really love the taste of regular Coke (especially with some Appleton's in there) but perhaps too much.
Came back from Hawaii with a parcel of Red Vines and made the mistake of reading the back of the package

Two vines is something like 60 calories, I'd eat easily 10 in a sitting, usually with a coke

Allowing myself to have popcorn when I want it, but mostly light versions

I'll have a chocolate bar maybe once or twice a week, Aero dark chocolate being preferred.
Just don't have the metabolism to handle this stuff anymore though, it just settles in for the long haul.

That said, modifying ye olde addictions and a fair bit of exercise has me down and pretty stable around 205 from a high of about 230 a couple of years ago (in that picture that DeanPaul unearthed). Aiming to be sub-200 for C3 so I can mock JediMac for being heavier than someone
twice his age older than him
