[QUOTE="BrownFlush, post: 3058130, member: 65823"] I have seen several comments about gaining weight in retirement , getting the gut , etc. Staying in shape was no problem while working for sure , but going from 100 mph to 0 overnight has its disadvantages . I have been out 8 years now and have always laughed at diets and the latest fads about how to loose weight , etc. I have always exercised , biked , walked , swam , but always stayed at the same weight , gaining a pound or two over the years. My wife has always "watched " her weight . She weighs 8 pounds more than she did when we got married 38 years ago , she is at 130 lbs. Her secret.. vegetarian . I have always ate whatever I wanted , when I wanted , till my belly was full . I decided to try her hippie diet 2 months ago . I weighed 227 when I started this and morning I am at 207. 20 lbs in 2 months. I never did anything but change what I eat. She says the loss will probably slow way down now to about a pound or so a month. My body is just now getting "flushed out". I have to say , I feel good and have ate till I am full each time. I just haven't had any meat or dairy . Pretty wild . [/QUOTE]
