Update: Change of program

Hi everyone,

I'm starting to feel like a real serial dieter at this point.

My diabetes is doing fine but a few weeks back I was starting to feel really tired each day and in general just not feeling well. I think overconfidence was making me cut corners.

The real struggle for me is eating at home and not eating out because we hate to cook! lol We have been doing a lot better with not eating out so this has helped.

Also, we are reading a new book for an interesting way of life:


Fit for Life I think is working and this is only after 5 days.

First, I started to get more energy during the mornings and all day. This has allowed me to not be tired at work and get a lot of stuff done around the house.

Second, my stomach troubles (gas and diarrhea) have gone away.

Thirdly, I'm sleeping better. I'm sleeping almost as good as when we were juicing 100% for that week.

I can not confirm any weight loss at this point sadly because our scale does not go that high. :(

Fit for Life is all about eating based on our daily natural body cycles. So far after 5 days it's working for me!

Have a great day!
Ian

The Night Before

It is about 11:30pm the night before my wife and I start our new diet...new life...and I'm scared.

We spent a very large amount of money to try a new program developed by one of those weight loss clinics. At this point I will not be telling you what clinic we are working with to lose weight. All I can say is it seems like a safe program that doesn't starve you to death!

I have tried for so long to be skinny and fit that it's hard to imagine what I will look like skinny. I have been fat most of my life since I was a teenager. I was the fat kid in school and now I'm that fat guy at work.

I'm hoping that with the support of my wife who is also struggling with weight and this new program we can become the skinny and happy people we deserve to be. I love my wife so much and all that matters to me is to have children with her and have a long happy life with them.

I know a "Guy" is not scared and doesn't show emotion but when you come to what feels like the last resort or the last chance for happiness image is the least of my worries.

From now on I promise to try to be more upbeat and manly!

So, we hard our last supper...last party...last binge...last hurrah  so to speak this past weekend. We ate our favorite foods and even took an amazing last minute trip to the Rockie Mountains! This was a near perfect weekend with just my wife and I. We even did some hiking that I know I will pay for tomorrow.  The trip through the mountains was amazing because we had perfect weather and it's still the off season the tourists were few.

Even if this weight loss program fails the weekend was amazing and worth every penny!
