Day 1 - I admit I am powerless over my addiction to food; my life is unmanageable.
Here I am again, starting a new weight loss journey. I have been here many times before. I lose weight, I am happy about it. I keep my new weight for a while; then I start eating more, gaining again, and eventually once again I am fat guy. It totally sucks. I hate this roller coaster.
But today is a new start. This time I am totally relying on God to do for me what I can not do for myself. Here I sit at 209 pounds. For my 5'8" body that is not good. Once I was 5'10' but that was in my younger days. Apparently I am settling already. Wonderful!
Feel free to take this journey with me if you like. Any encouragement would be welcome - prayers too. I will take all the help I can get. I am now ready to go to any lengths to lose the fat. My goal is 175. I am in no hurry to get there, as long as I am making progress. Any week that I do not gain will be a good week. Any week that I lose, even if it is just one pound, will be considered a great week.
So here goes. Wish me luck. I will try to journal something here each day, just to keep me honest. That is all for now.

Hey Steve...My story is similar and I've been diligently working on my nutrition and exercise for the past 3 weeks making some progress. I have also struggled with my weight my entire life. I wish you the very best and I'm rootin for you!! Yvette Hayward
ReplyDeleteThanks Yvette. I really do need and appreciate the encouragement. I wish you all the best with your journey also. I need to start walking again, but I just hating walking alone. I get bored. Maybe I will find a walking buddy and that would help. Have a great day.
