My high water mark was 240 lbs (~4 years ago) I was 178 lbs 3 months ago. I began a diet of fruit & vegetable smoothies with a daily 4oz piece of salmon and currently am at 165 lbs with a goal of 160. I feel better, my skin and hair are excellent and I have noticed an improvement in my mental acuity. I am 56 years old and while eating better may not add years to my life,the quality of my remaining years will increase!
