I'm dieting now. Did OP eat this way when he was dieting? I try and eat 5-6 times a day to boost the metabolism.

The thing was, i used to eat alot of carbs and sugars. That summer when i started working out i cut out basically ALL simple sugars, no soda candy or anything and seiruosly reduced my complex carbs. When i was actually excersing i ate 3 meals a day, but made sure i had less than 10 grams of sugar a day and less than 1000 mg of sodium ( i had high blood pressure which was a huge reason for me to get in better shape). The one mile was basically working me out till exhausion, i started at about a 12 mile pace but towards the end of the summer i was doing about a 7:30 min mile. I think the fact that i was litteraly a blob of fat(220 or so and could only bench about 160) and was essentially, completley sedentary before that, and had no regard for what i was eating before( fast food, probably more than 3000 calories a day, tons of rice) accounted for my rapid weight loss.
