Recently several people have asked me what I did to loose all that weight (75#) and am often out in the sierra hiking +100 miles.

Intermittent fasting
I am at 160 lbs down from a previous normal of around 175. Wholly attributable to a 19/5 eating pattern. I did it to make weight for a Jiu jitsu tournament and am keeping it off. About time.
