it was the twin cam.
lol
during its project build I quit drinking wine.
with wine comes cheese and snacks.
ahem. also cause working I was not thinking food.
lost 20 pounds first month not really trying.
then second month I just ate one light meal every other day. lost 30....
another -10 lbs or so I will just eat once a day (light) and maintain.
adjust from there.

lol well, not really passing out.
but have gotten dizzy and weak a few times.
I holding steady now at 180. sooo, that's 74 pounds gone.
I off all the  b.p. pills and thinners and all that crap.
it really does help.  and the ladies also don't mind.
good luck, stick with it.
(your bike will also like it)
