I've been leaning on food for a long time as my drug of choice. Finally decided to stop. Walking everywhere in town, plus lots at school now, campus is big. It's 30 - 45 minutes of walking a day, and leaves me pretty out of breath.
I cut down to 1200-1500 calories a day on Monday and have been at it, and I'm feeling pretty good. More energetic, and not too hungry. I think most of my hunger is really probably 'reflexive', me wanting to eat due to habit/boredom/whatever.
Anxst - 6'0" 362 lbs. 32 male as of Monday. I'll weigh myself again Monday and see how I'm doing. Hopefully the height, age and sex will still be the same.
