Three years ago I lost 85 pounds. When I started it was because I wanted to change my life. The first two weeks,I thought I would die of starvation, I was hungry 24/7. I went to sleep thinking about food, I dreamed about food, I even woke up with the first thing on my mind was breakfast. After the first 2 weeks when my stomach had time to shrink down to a normal size the diet wasn't hard at all and I really wasn't hungry. Over the last three years my mother passed away, I quit smoking, my father had by-pass surgery, my daughter married someone I can't stand, and my youngest son got divorced. Needless to say I gained It all back. I probably would have anyway because I just love food but I've had some pretty good reasons for stress since I lost it. I now have to start all over and I don't look forward to those first 2 weeks. If I could just get past them I'd be o.k.

Change works.....lifestyle changes, eating habit changes, finding a new way to eat works.

Exercise can be fun.You have sports which is a fun way to get active.Ifyou have young children you can play with them in the park.It's the little things that count.I also heard that those walking meters that McDonalds had are pretty good to have. Now whenI start taking my own advice I'll be good!
