No doubt! I didn't say it was "healthy". I said it was possible.
When in doubt.....listen to Matt........... not Rush and Jared

I'm like PA's Cliff Clavin, (That's what Frank calls me ,LOL) I know just enough about enough different things to really make me dangerous. I'm a storehouse of useless trivia and HELL on a Trivial Pursuit game.

Making up your mind to lose the weight is the most important part! Eat good food,meaning healthy food.Lean meats,lots of vegetables and fruits,lots of water.Eliminate soft drinks like soda and fruit juices.Drink water or tea.Watch the dressings and sauces,lots of sneaky calories in those condiments.
Any exercise plan needs a good balance of aerobic/cardio and anerobic/resistance exercise.Start off easy do some push ups and sit ups,the amount you do and the number of sets really depends upon your condition.Walking is a good way to start off until you can jog and then run.Work your way in to these things.
Get a physical if you havn't in a while so you get the go ahead to embark on a diet and exercise program.
Here is a list of web sites that I find very helpful.Rosstraining,Crossfit,Bodyweight Culture,John Berardi nutrition,Clarence Bass Ripped.Read the articles on these sites,go to their forums,there is a ton of excellent information.
I wish you good luck!

Yep, losing weight and keeping it off is a LIFESTYLE CHANGE, not a diet. Diets don't work ever. YOu need to completely change your eating habits, mindset on food and nutrition and EXERCISE.
Diet without exercise is a waste of time, and diet and exercise without changing your lifestyle is a waste of a lot of hard work.

I'm doing a hunter fitness challenge on my blog, maybe we should do a thread for all the people trying to loose weight, kind of a support group. Post pictures, update everyone on our success and what we are struggling with.
