This is my new life!!!
Well here we go again! Have been 300 lbs or more all of my adult life! That is going to change-off to a good start! Have learned so far-baby steps-1 day at a time. I am disabled due to degernative disc disease. It could be worse than what it is though. At least I can still get around-a little slow-but so goes life.... Sept. 2010 update.. I have been very slow at losing. It might get a little faster as I was diagnosed with pancreatis some time ago. Several months ago ...
Well here we go again! Have been 300 lbs or more all of my adult life! That is going to change-off to a good start! Have learned so far-baby steps-1 day at a time. I am disabled due to degernative disc disease. It could be worse than what it is though. At least I can still get around-a little slow-but so goes life.... Sept. 2010 update.. I have been very slow at losing. It might get a little faster as I was diagnosed with pancreatis some time ago. Several months ago my body taught me that I could no longer eat beef or oils. Now it is teaching me that I can no longer eat sugar & am tolerating less fat. Used to be I could eat mayo-looks like no longer. Also not sure yet-but eggs may becoming a no-no. Time will tell. Can not eat much meat at all-so started protein shakes. They come in handy when food doesn't agree with me & causes pain & I get to the point that I know I need food. Am thinking now that my body may force me into losing weight! The fats & sugar are not good for me anyhow. I have been addicted to sugar-but the fats really have been no problem for me. I love my veggies & fruits & can still eat them.
