Things change and so can I

Regardless of what people may think, I am taking this diet seriously and also making some important changes in my life. I will no longer be a victim!

I had a life changing moment years ago, it lasted almost a decade before I got lost in the robotic world of day to day life. Now it's time to renew that old commitment to myself. I alone am responsible for myself.

This is day 4 on VLCD and I have lost 12.5 pounds since Monday! I have to make sure I eat enoungh. I am hardly getting hungry anymore. I am so glad that finally kicked in! It took those first three days to taper off. Now it's more that I notice I feel empty on occaision. That's usually because I have forgetten to drink my water.

I can truly say that I have been through much worse than this program could bring to the table. I know what rock bottom is. I also pulled myself back from that point. This has also reminded me that there are other people in this world and even in this great country of ours that barely get to eat the 500 cals that I eat each day.

So starting today, I am setting aside the money that I am not spending going out to eat and over-eating and setting it asisde. The fast food, the junk food and all of that garbage that I put into myself adds up real fast. I started the talley and even with eating natural and organic, my "food bill" has gone down dramatically.
I will make a donation to our local food bank each week. It's something worth meditating on. I am only one, I only have one voice, but I believe that I can make a difference.

Namaste,

Dobbs

Woo Hoo

Morning weigh in 248, thats 10 lbs gone bye bye! 4 pounds from my preloading weight, still awesome!

Here goes everything!

I finally had enough. I am sick and tired of feeling/being fat/overweight or whatever you want to call it.

Today I startted a new diet program. It's the HCG diet. It was popular in the 70's and then got real quiet. Now interest is growing. I took the plunge.
Hopefully, if everything goes well. I will be down to my goal weight of 185 in no time.

It's sad, I remember one point in my life when I mustered the courage to set new ground and take control of my life. I broke that promise. That will not happen again.

This is the story of my promise to myself.
