OK good point - yeah that 2lbs per year was sounding high to me too.

but see - the numbers listed are still impressive and not so good. I never did the math on myself but in the past 20 years, and mostly in the past 5 years I've been able to turn things around while people around me just keep going down hill drinking soda; munching on chips; eating endless cheese and pasta for lunch; then more soda as a pick me up in the afternoon. the OP sounds fine but he might want to have some protein with each meal, especially if he's training. I didn't say all protein all the time, so don't mis-quote me.
