Well, Jimmie, I'm starting my diet today. I may fall off the wagon, but I'd like to lose at least 10 before the hunt. I've been reading your posts and seeing refrences to longer hikes this year, so I figured I'd better get off the Twinkies and onto the Lean Cuisine. I do understand why seals and walruses are so fat, though, cause being fat definitely helps you put up with the cold.
