I eat as little as I can, (1800 calories) but the diabetes makes it very difficult to trim anything else from my strict diet. If I take even another 100 calories out of my diet for more than a couple days I end up sick in bed for weeks. Before I got sick, I was still 180 pounds and on a 3200 calorie a day diet. -- Service to my country? Been there, Done that, and I've got my DD214 to prove it. Member of DAV #85. Michael A.
