    My advice to myself: look in the mirror and tell yourself that that "cheat" is what got you here in the first place! You can make it without it!!!

            Great job! Next time you are at the grocery store, go by the cat litter and pick up one of those 30 lb buckets of cat litter, THEN put a 20 lb bag of cat food on top of it! You won't believe how much extra weight you were carrying around and it will be no wonder why your knees don't hurt so much anymore

                Great work! It's amazing as the weight comes of how light your body feels and the "ole" spring to the step comes back.

                    I have to tell you how much I appreciate this post.
                    I have been walking 5 miles a day to try to take off this weight. There are days that after one mile my feet and back and knees hurt so bad I feel a million years old. I keep going hoping to feel as good as you are now.

                    My Physical Therapist actually taped my foot yesterday to try to help support my arch from caving in under the pressure of this extra weight. I bought some arch supports to see if they help. You know what they say....for every pound we are over weight we put 4 pounds of pressure on our knees.
                    ----------------

                    You make the choice to be who you were yesterday, with each new dawn we are given the opportunity to recreate ourselves.
