How about the right side, George? Not to make you have one bun of
 steel, but maybe you could kick-start your metabolism with that
 side. Something like swatting flies all day, will be enough to get
 the juices flowing. From there, your body should put more food stores
 to use, and less will go to long term storage.

I could check with a few people, but you know as well as I do, the
same old drivel about calories, and balanced diet, reasonable
activities... You mentioned that you run a small raised garden. Are
you in charge of weeding it, or cultivation of the top few inches?
This could be an excellent start. Even if you are in charge of
dispensing tools, you are giving the muscles something to do.
