    That is a great amount of weight to lose.
    Are you eating real food for all meals now?
    Def agree with your PT on the cardio, strength training you need more than cardio :)

    I have been on all food for a few months now, weight is still coming off, My PT said that if I feel I have to be active everyday just to walk one of the days and not run, so I am probably gonna do that tomorrow. I splurged a little today, I had a yard of Octoberfest beer, some frozen yogurt, and a turkey burger at a restaurant. I also had some chinese for dinner, no fried stuff though. My PT is coming over tomorrow to put together a strength training program I can do when I am not working with him. He's gonna look at what stuff I have at home and let me know what to do and how many times.

    He's been great, He has his own gym and trains one on one. He said that during the cold and winter months he will open up on Sunday so that I don't have to go to my gym to work out during the bad months. He's like don't think I will charge you for it either, I actually enjoy working out with you, you're more of a friend than a client. My wife and I worked out with his wife 4 years ago before we got married.
