Getting back in shape. Went from 215 to 180 in the last 3 months. Used to be in perfect shape with a lot of physical activity. Along with that activity came an appetite and when the activity slowed down the pounds went on. A warning to all those people who say "I'm active I can eat anything I want" that it is very hard to tell your body it doesn't need all that food anymore if your activity level changes. Getting older only makes it worse. Don't get me wrong I was eating a healthy diet and getting a decent amount of exercise but nowhere near the levels I used to so I gained weight.
