Hello, ALL!!!!
First, thanks for all the support everyone gives. What a nice place with nice people!!!
Yesterday, my lovely wife and I went to a movie for the first time since I started this WOE (started July 14, 2005). I have been a little hesitant because the smell of movie popcorn can be overwhelming. But, I prepared with my pork rinds and water and enjoyed a nice movie (Flightplan - I really liked this one!!). While I noticed the popcorn and it was verrry tempting, I refrained and ate my rinds!
Just wanted to share for others who are dealing with temptations. I have broken more diets than most of you can think of. I have been fat (no, I'm not heavy, thick, fluffy or anything else, I'm just fat....) all of my life and finally found something I think I can live with. I live in the deep south and have to get a little militant occasionally (what???? you don't eat fried chicken or hash browns or grits or biscuits???????), but I have lost 37.5 pounds in ten weeks and don't plan to look back. I am eating the best I have in my life and don't miss the junk. I pray God will help me get to the end of this. I am drawing inspiration from many of you and hope I can give back a little to others.
My goal is to lose 125 pounds, one at a time, and join the century club!. I am close to my first goal (started at 298.5, currently 261, looking for 250). My wife is very supportive, but we are eating different diets. It can work, it just takes some planning. If you are having problems with your family and this WOE, I understand. Just remind them regularly that what you are doing is and will impact them because a healthier you is a happier (and hopefully longer living) you!!
Remember, it's never to late to start. I'll be 50 shortly and feel better than I have in 10 years. Just be like a snowball: Start small and pick up steam as you roll downhill. Thanks for listening and God Bless!!!
