Hey guys, thanks a lot! It took about 5-6 months to go from my top weight to my bottom. I saw results in the first week or two, and I was very surprised by that.
As far as my diet, I gave up dairy from exactly when I started running. I have had a long held hypothesis that Americans, as a whole, intake far too much of it. Even in things like white bread, chicken, french fries, just weird places. I don't eat too much meat to begin with besides a great deal of fish. Not for health reasons, I just love fish! I take a multivitamin daily and I eat a cliff bar regularly [which may or may not contain traces of dairy]. I know not eating dairy is for everyone, but let me just say that I would have more trouble gaining weight now than I do losing it. Aside from that I never get stomach problems, which were chronic. I never feel much in the way of fatigue, I can think much more clearly. And I hardly crave any foods, period.
I still have vices, I eat oreos a great deal. They are, surprisingly, dairy-free. I drink diet pepsi in decent amounts.
As for running, I just run around my local park 45 minutes, every other day about.
So that's it in a nutshell. I didn't follow any diet plan or anything. Thanks, guys. Good luck!
