I also take a mutli-vitaiman and 1000 mg of vitaiman C daily. If any one has any suesstions on losing the extra weight I'd love to hear. I have just signed up and am going to try the ab workout to see if that will help. **will update profile shortly** -------------- fat guy who can\'t spell in need of some help!

I have tried that in the past and did lose a little weight. I will try to increase my cardio starting today. Currently I work out in the morning. Is there anything wrong with working out right before going to bed? IN regards to eating more protien and veggie's. Would it hurt any thing if I ate just that? I know that eating to many carbs can be bad, so if all of my carbs came from just veggies and the little in the meats would that hurt my body in any way? Thanks agian for all input. -------------- fat guy who can\'t spell in need of some help!
