Casual treadmilling keeps me at a steady plateau of 130 pounds, but I could really stand to lose ten of them. I blame my love of All the Bad Things at the Supermarket Ever (specifically diet soda and a weekly dessert).
I have a very strong sweet tooth and tend not to feel satiated until I've closed off my meals with something sweet. Fruits usually work, but sometimes I get this really raging need for good old processed bullcrap for future diabetics.
Oh, and I have this yearly ritual of buying exactly one pressurized can of whipped cream per year, and making it last by taking little nips from it every once in a while. Or friends come on over, and we pretend we're still teens with insolently active metabolisms and guzzle long shots of the stuff down.

I've been watching what I've been eating. I eat Oatmeal every day (No sugar, no fruits, got all the fiber I need), I get two cups of Coffee with Sugar, and I drink water damn near all day, and when I don't drink water, I drink either Milk with Lunch or Dinner, or Earl Grey Tea with very little sugar.
But I have also been doing firewood lately, which causes me to sweat a bunch, and it has been showing: Two months ago, I got on a scale, and I read 259 Lbs. Four weeks later (Let's say), I was 239 Lbs, and then a week ago, I read as 233 Lbs.
Of course, I don't sit at the Escapist as often as I used to (I still do, just at an hour at a time), plus I have two jobs and school. I can stand to lose another 30 lbs (I'm 5' 10") or so (My dad says I could be at 184, which would be scary, because I've always been fat since Grade School, Weight loss is a radical and scary process for me).
So, that's me. Just stay active and eat right and decent proportions, is my advice.

Absolutely nothing.
...To be honest, I'd be much better off with a little more weight. Pretty damn skinny.
