I Weigh 285lbs
I had a fantastic start this week. The first week is always great but I was still especially pleased - the key is keeping this momentum moving. I ate so much better this week and worked in a lot of exercise. I made sure to walk everyday at work so even if I did not get to the gym that night I still have exercised each day. I still went to the gym a bunch but I also rode my bike. I went downtown and did errands and figured burning calories was a better idea than burning gas so I grabbed my knapsack and jumped on my bike. Unexpectedly I found a good deal on a large bunch of cut flowers so I put them in my knapsack and went on my way. I can only image what people were thinking as I buzzed by with a huge bunch of flowers peaking out of my bag. It was probably something along the lines of - oh there is that crazy again. Anyway last Sunday I set a goal of 280lbs by Christmas, so I am well on the way and possibly may need to revise that. Time will tell but here comes week two which is always a momentum killer. Could possibly be little to know weight loss as my body adjusts. However I am going to continue this.

Scott, I know you can do this. I'd like to see you closer to the 200lb mark. I want you in my life for many more years!
Some tips for you: drink a big glass of water 20 minutes before each meal. Don't eat while reading, watching tv or standing (be present and enjoy your food).
Keep snacks like raw nuts, cut up vegetables and fruit at your desk. I have a bowl of fruit at my desk with raw walnuts and almonds to snack on.
Drop the DIET soda - very very bad for you.
Your daily walking is a fantastic idea! Make sure you're getting your heart rate up.
Drop me a line if you want more tips - I have many!
