Nick you are on the basic 2000 calorie diet, which is about all anyone needs. If you were to drop that to 1500 and use 2000 as the absolute top you would find the fat drop right off.

At my size and metabolism I need about 2500 calories/day to stay even and am allowed to go to 3000 occasionally. When I was actually trying to lose weight and doing my workouts, I was told no more than 2500 a day and I tried to stay at 2000. I felt dead tired all the time, I was told to increase my carb intake marginally about 100-200 cal/day to see if that helped and it did - alot! I added a handfull of raisins to my morning oatmeal or something similar to help give me some much needed fuel before my morning runs/workouts, I always followed the runs/workouts with some form of protien as well, egg whites usually or a protien shake if I was rushed. I like to eat my food not drink it, so I am not big on protien shakes. And as you all have figured out, water is your best friend.

I was reading that an "inactive" man should target 13 calories per pound of weight to maintain where they are at. An "active" man should target 15 calories per pound. Now, I know that those are just estimates, but it is interesting to see how much someone can actually eat an not gain weight. Of course this assumes they aren't eating a ton of salt or other water retaining substance, and probably dozens of other factors, but it is interesting.

I am 6'1", and according to the BMI thing, I should weigh between 144-189. Holy crap! I've got a ways to go. I weigh 30 pounds more than a guy that I work with who is 10 years younger than me, but he looks in worse shape than I do.

Well, time for some good breakfast and more water...

Back to soft drinks...

I drink about 2L of Pepsi a day in the winter... 3L a day in the summer... besides that, during periods of activity I also quaff Gator- or Powerade.

I should be diabetic in 3... 2... 1...

I'd hate to meet you on the day that Pepsi disappears from the Earth.
