Stormmee - 16 Jul 2006 05:04 GMT guess I should have had a weight goal, up 1.4, I did eat my good fats 5 of 7 days which is an improvement for me, but the heat and bloating from that along with not eating enough did me in and I am sure I could have done better on the water... oh well, I didn't do anything wrong so I am fine with that, a bit frustrating but that is life and I didn't give up so here's to a good week for everyone, *raises glass of water* Lee

That is great that you are there for your friend, just remember to be there for yourself also. Losing a friend is harsh, and sometimes when you try to comfort somebody you forget to take care of your own grief.
Core is a good idea in the heat.. fruits and veggies are sooo your friends.. Will~

Lee, sorry for rambling

I could really use an inspiring post right now if you don't mind sharing??

Stormmee - 23 Jul 2006 19:38 GMT Hi,
I started at 251.6 currently weigh 171 as of yesterday. Lowest weight is 151.2, my goal is 146.
Today is the beginning of week 196 on ww. I have lost this weight by following the ww program in the variety of incarnations since I started. I never fail I always just learn.
What has helped me is knowing that time is going to pass no matter if I am trying to be healthier or not. food is one of the few things in life you can control so why not do it to benefit yourself rather than hurt yourself...
You are asking I can hear it, why did you start...
I was having a discussion with DH's stepmother about self termination, in general and specifically when health issues became acute and/or painful, I had to tell her I didn't believe this was a thing I could do but I could honor someone else's decision with no judgment... about six weeks later I woke up from a dead sleep and it hit me that eating improperly was self termination one forkful at a time, so in order to not be a hypocrite I would have to eat healthier... so the goal wasn't losing weight at all but not being a hypocrite...
My number one rule:
"NEVER do anything to lose weight that you cannot commit to for the rest of your life" That doesn't mean that sometimes I don't drink enough water or that I eat junkie foods, what it means is that I never say When I get to goal I won't have to "insert item here" I do indeed hate drinking water, and work to get it in... I am always going to hate water, and I am always going to drink it because no matter how nasty it tastes gong down I know in my heart is in my best health interest to drink it, and so I do it...
I wish I could write better or be more inspiring but this is just the way it happened, I hope it helps you, Lee

I loved it!!!.......thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughts with us!.......I think you have a great attitude and your posting really inspires me.........You've struck a few chords that have made me take another look at my situation and know that I am on the right road.
Moving towards a healthy lifestyle is what my journey is all about. Obviously losing weight will be a side effect of my efforts to live a healthy lifestyle!
You must feel really great eh?.........80.6 lbs!!!! totally, totally awesome!!!!
What's more important is that you've changed your life for the last 196 weeks!!! That's almost 4 years!!!! absolutely fantastic!!!!
Thanks again!

I was fat and had a knee injury that hurt constantly, now what exercise I get is walking, lots in Wal-Mart... it is a huge change from saying to dh, "you go in" or, "I'll go but get me a chair...", I don't want to pay WW the money every week for the rest of my life but I will if I have to, Lee
