One Week and feeling GOOD!!!!!!!! :)

[discodon1980]

Hello Everyone!!!!

It's me Don (discodon1980). I thought I would post telling everyone how week one went. I started at 388lbs and now Im at 378lbs!!! I lost 10 lbs in the first week!!! I'll admitt thought it has been hard and I have been in a bad mood lately!!! A week withut bread and pies!!! OH MY!!!!! But I did survive and I'm still breathing!!! LOL Unfortunatley my girlfriend Tiffany (blugirl) has had to put up with me!!! Ive had a negative attitude and I just want to apologize to her for being soo grumpy!!! Without her none of this would have been possible or will be possible!!!!

My new effort this week is to increase my water intake and totally get rid of my diet soda addiction!!!! Its going to be tough but reading on here that some people gave diet soda up instantly, so it should be no problem for me.
Also I'm going to start increasing exercise like crazy!!! I want to get in the "ZONE" again. When I lost 150 lbs about 7 yrs ago I would hop on the treadmill, zone out and then be on there for two hours straight!!! I know this isnt going to happen over night but I'm putting all my effort into this!!!

I started today and walked on the treadmill for 35 mins at 3.3 mph and it felt Great!!! Me and Tiffany have been going for nightly walks as well. I have a starting picture ill post in the next day or so so you guys can see how much work I got ahead of me!!!

Again thanks for the encouraging words you have sent to me and Tiffany in the last week. With out I wouldnt have made it this far!!!

THANKS!!!!!!

Congrats on losing the 10 pounds!!!! You're doing absolutely wonderful so far and you have such great motivation that I know you will be at your goal weight in no time. After all, we all are losers, aren't we? =)

As for the soda in take. Take one day at a time. I did that in order to stop my soda addiction. I normally drank one soda a day and then it diminished to every other day and now I have been completely rid of it for a whole month now and I don't feel as bloated as I did when I did drink it. If you need any help, I'm always here and there are other friendly ADBB members who are more than willing to motivate you and encourage you to go on!

I start tomorrow. So wish me luck! I wish you the best of luck, as well.
