Al Sharpton has lost 176 pounds in the past four-and-a-half yearsand he didnt have surgery as part of his weight loss plan.

I actually lost more weight than I am! the civil rights leader told People magazine recently.

The 60-year-old pastor lost 30 pounds back in 2001 as part of a hunger strike. He put thatand even moreback on during his bid for the presidency. It wound up being his daughter Ashley who convinced him to take off some serious weight.

Around 2006, my youngest daughter Ashley poked me in the stomach and said, Dad, why are you so fat? That kind of hurt my feelings. I grew up in civil rights and politics, so Im pretty thick-skinned, but when your daughter says it, I started being conscious, Al Sharpton explained.

He started his weight loss regimen by avoiding red meats and starches. As he progressed, he became even stricter about what he ate.

Its always the same salad: lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, two or three [hard-boiled] eggs cut in and balsamic vinaigrette dressing, Sharpton says of his only real meal of the day. My doctor said to me, Youve got to have some carbs and you need protein, so he put me on whole wheat toast.

Now Al Sharpton incorporates three slices of whole wheat toast into his breakfast and sometimes one at night as well. On weekends he adds a piece of fish in his attempt to adhere to his doctors wish for more protein in his diet.

I think the first week, maybe week and a half, I would get hungry every now and then. But the key to it is determination, he says. He even admits to not missing much of anything he gave up eating.

I was a fried chicken junkie, he said. I used to eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but after about three or four weeks, I didnt have a longing for that either.

Al Sharpton realized that when he added exercise to his diet, even more weight fell off. These days he walks on the treadmill, but only for 20 to 30 minutes per day, five days a week.

ST. LOUIS (AP) With a grand jury decision and a local election looming, the Rev. Al Sharpton returned to St. Louis on Friday to renew calls for the federal prosecution of a white police officer who shot and killed a black 18-year-old in the nearby suburb of Ferguson.

The civil rights activist said leaks about the supposedly secret St. Louis County grand jury deliberations undermine the local inquiry into whether to indict Ferguson Officer Darren Wilson in Michael Brown's killing. The panel is expected to complete its review by mid-November, independent of U.S. Justice Department investigations into both Brown's death and the broader practices of the Ferguson department.

Legal analysts have said leaked information about Wilson's testimony to investigators could be an attempt to prepare the public for the possibility that the grand jury might recommend he not face charges.

"The grand jury is tainted. The confidence of the family has been shattered," Sharpton said after meeting briefly with Brown's parents and local activists at a breakfast rally before returning to New York. "We should turn this over to the federal government."

The federal investigation remains open, but investigators face a tall burden in trying to mount a civil rights prosecution against Wilson. The Justice Department would need to prove that he willfully deprived Brown of his civil rights, a challenging standard, especially because police officers are given wide latitude in their use of force. History shows civil rights prosecutions of police officers are far easier to bring in instances where an officer attacks a handcuffed person, or beats someone already in custody, than in a case involving a fluid, ongoing physical struggle.

Brown was unarmed when Wilson encountered him walking in the street with a friend. A scuffle started while Wilson was still in his police SUV and spilled into the street. Brown was shot multiple times. Witness accounts of what happened varied.

Sharpton's remarks were followed by a training of volunteer "justice disciples" who will monitor the police response to anticipated protests over the upcoming grand jury decision. He's scheduled to again join Brown's parents Monday at a get-out-the-vote rally in St. Louis, with a particular emphasis on a St. Louis County executive race that has largely become a referendum on Ferguson.
