Quick Diet Update

Since getting the news from the doc to try a low-fat, low-sodium diet early in June, I have now lost 15lbs.  I started June at 265lbs, and am starting July at 250lbs.  My goal is to hit 210lbs by the end of the year. I think I can do it.  Cutting out all of the fat though, is quite a bit harder than I thought.  Just finding lifestyle compatible food without hidden saturated fat grams is incredibly hard.  I have however found a few good resources.  One is FitDay which I spoke about last week.  Its a great fitness/dietary journal web app.  See my other blog entry for more details.  Second is the number of decent fitness blogs out there that are run by folks like myself.   www.fit36.com is a decent one, and he has quite a few links to some others.  Finally, Mens Health magazine has got a great database of great things to eat, and simple recipes to follow.  I will post another weight update at the end of July.
