I'm staying steady at 191, without really making any dieting efforts other than usual. I wish I had more ambition, but my clothes are fitting well,so...

I have some extra [flab] tissue I'd love to just have cut off, but I'll save my allowance for something more important.At one time during my career, my weight got out of hand and I weighed in at 202 pounds, which was up ftom my usual 178. When I had my yearly physical, I received a notice from the PSP that I need to correct my weight gain. Troopers must maintain weight according to the national CDC chart. At 5ft. 11in., I could carry the extra weight, but I did show a little flab. I immediately corrected the weight issue, but couldn’t get rid of the flab then or now. They suggested that my weight should be 165-175. It only took me about 2 months.
I started doing all kinds of exercises to eliminate the flab, but nothing has worked. My PCP told me my only recourse at this point is to have Abdominoplasty Surgery. I decided not to go that route.
