Have fun with the kids - they are a blast to have around. Sounds like he is a real trooper.
No weight "problem," I was technically overweight (5' 11", 175.) Also, I wanted to get off the BP and Cholesterol meds. So far, so good! Now at 165 bp down w/o meds. Off the statins.
If I can stay off at least the statins, I'll remain on the diet.
