  My plan is about changing my bad habits.  I quit smoking once and for all about 6 months ago (I've quit several times over the last 7 or 8 years... ) and... anyone who's ever quit smoking knows what the next step is afterward... it's mandatory (I'm sure it's in the rules somewhere...) that you gain weight!  I myself managed to pork on 40 lbs!! 
  I'm drinking ALOT more water, my goal is 100 oz or more a day.  I'm eating low fat and healthy, lots of fruit and veggies with everything.  Skinless chicken and fish.  There is a Subway a mile or so away, my fiance and I walk up there and eat a few times a week.  Last but not definitely not least, I'm exercising, exercising, exercising.  I'm trying to work something into my schedule everyday except Thursday... that's bowling league night, which is the only night I allow myself to drink alcohol.
  I'm a carb addict, I admit it, if they come out with C.A. (Carbohydrate's Anonymous) I will have to consider joining!  My family is VERY italian, a day without pasta is... unthinkable.  As much as I know I might lose more weight more quickly on an Atkins type diet, I know I could never stick to it.  But I am trying to cut down on my carbs too.  
  Sweets and junk food were never a problem and I rarely if ever drank pop.  
  I grew up a fat kid, I lost weight early in my adult years, kept it off for nearly 13 years, and just let myself go, plain and simple, I let myself go.  I decided now was the time to get myself back on track... but geez... it's sooooooo much harder this time...  
  My fiance and I are going to Hawaii on a 12 day cruise in April, I know I won't be walking onto that ship a size 6, but I'll be damned if I'm going to walk (waddle...) on a size 18 either!!
