This right here is probably the reason 70% of overweight people are overweight. Too lazy to prepare my own lunch in the morning was killer, especially when you have a small time for lunch break during the day and limited choices. You are forced to eat horribly.

drinking 2-4 cokes a day

I'm on a 1200 calorie diet. I was drinking 2-4 cokes per day if not more. That's 280-560 calories or almost half of my budget per day on something that just makes you hungry immediately. I didn't realize this until it was too late. Just cut it completely, the artificial sweetener in diet/zero drinks may have no sugar, but they have the same short term effects as sugar as in making you hungry/crave food.

I still make real bad food choices all the time but one bad habit I've conquered is I don't drink sugar.

I used to polish off a 2 liter of coke about every other day. Easily 500 to 800 calories a day just from soda.

323/180.6/175

Mediocre day at the trough. gain is mainly from sodium. Not enough calories to gain almost a pound.

Yea I've gotten to the point I have maybe 1 diet drink a week. So I've maintained the good habits of cutting out coke/fast food but added bad of drinking more than once every other week and back to eating out 2 times a week at least.

Also contributing factors to weight gain

- long term relationship was comfortable so didn't work out

Went from being active in high school, to military, then after got a decent job that required me to sit on my arse. Not a good thing since I had to wake up for 6 to be at work for 8 and then worked till 5 with another 45-1:30 drive home. Fast food was quickest, cheapest option out.
