Just a few questions

[slipondajimmy]

Hey everyone and thanks in advance for your responses. I just had a few general questions regarding dieting and weight loss. Im 29, 5'7 , and about 205 LBS. I would like to lose about 25 LBS or so. I have been told to eat 6 times a day but that is where the problem starts. I drive for a living so I need to come up with food I can put in a igloo cooler. Im hoping someone has a few suggestions. Next question is what type of workout should I be concetrating on for wieght loss. My job has me going to convienence stores all day so the temptation is always there to pick up some junk food between stops but in the month and a half I have been there the only thing I have bought is a few bottles of water here and there. I also tend to park as far away from the entrance to the stores as possible so I walk a little more. IM hoping someone on this board can assit me in these matters because I dont have the first clue where to start. Thanks a bunch
