Yeah, though I took it further, cutting out all the junk at once. No burgers, fries, chips, donuts, ice cream, soda, etc. Basically all my favorites gone, heh.

At the same time I started going to the gym 5-6 days/wk (~30mins/day). The result was losing 40 pounds in 3 months and feeling a lot better. Going to that extreme isn't necessary, though it did have some helpful side effects: - It reset my taste buds. Afterward sugary things tasted ridiculously sweet. - No longer craved sugar. - Portion sizes got a lot smaller. I distinctly remember feeling light on my feet and having a lot more energy. This was a decade ago. I kept off most of the weight, but ended up regaining 10 of the 40 as I reintroduced too much junk food.
