Adukart, guess I should give some background about my outlook.

I'm morally oppossed to "diets" and "diet foods". I only begrudgingly call my change in eating habits a diet.

Like many, I suppose. Once upon a time I could eat all I wanted, and did. I ran track, played soccer, and had a physically demanding job. But by time I was 30, my lifestyle and my metabolism definitely changed. Desk job, old age, and still eating everything I wanted began to put the pounds on.

In my early 20's I was 145 pounds. In my late 30's I was 205 pounds, until 3 months ago when I made this diet change.

All this somehow relates to a stubborn attitude that I'd rather go without than buy "sugar-free". Thus my solution to just accept limiting the number of PBJ sandwhiches each week!

But I have not been foolish enough to start running again. That is unhealthy for an overweight person, in my opinion. Walking, yes. Running, no. As my weight drops, I intensify the excercise slowly, and may eventually start running again.
