I only have 149 Lbs. to lose I weight 309. That was as of 01/01/05. I lost a little weight then I don't know how much. But I gained some back & stayed at 290-295 Lbs. Well I have gotten back on track. Which is a long long long story. I will get into sometime. Now I weigh 273.75. Not that I want to be exact.

My diet plan is very simple, & came about by accident. All of a sudden on Aug 13 Th., I said to myself; your killing yourself the way you are living (with food). Since I start diet after diet & quit within a few days, this had to be differnt. I had to change all the things I was doing in excess. I don't know how or why but I decided to make one change at a time. It did not have to be something to lose weight even though that would be the ultimate goal. The change had to be big, & I would give up that item for 2 weeks. At the end of two weeks if I can handle that item like a normal person I can go back to having it. If not I would continue not to have it. At the end of the two weeks I would ad something new to give up. Or to ad to my life style to make it more healthy. The first thing I gave up was diet soda. I was having a Min. of a 12 pack a day. That was on Aug. 15 Th. As of right now I have not felt I can handle having it like a normal person so I have not had any since then. The real exciting thing was at the end of 2 weeks, when I had to make another change to better my life, as soon as I started the second item (which was giving up sugar) the diet soda was no longer an issue. All I had to deal with was not having sugar. I have continued changing my life every two weeks since then. It seems like a long time but it has only been 79 days since then. I can get into more detail latter if you want. Excuse all of my spelling mistakes.

Very interesting since last weigh in, I lost 6.5 lbs so quick. Then gained weight for two days until I lost another .25 today. Just weird how it works when you are doing well on your eating.
 
WOW troutman, you're doing so awesome!! i love your two week plan and i'm glad you decided to make that change in your life. as we all know, it takes alot of willpower and control to do that. i'm so happy for you. i think i might try that as well. keep up the amazing weight loss. ;)
 
Happy day I have made goal # 1, reaching 265 Lbs. Goal # 2 is 255 Lbs. which I weighed when I was down sized from the gas co. 7.5 years ago.
 
You're doing great, troutman (heh, whenever I read that, I picture a superhero with fins for something)! Its an excellent idea to cut out the bad things in your life, because we've been told numerous times that long-term weightloss is all about a lifestyle change and not just a fad diet. Stick to it and you'll reach your goal!

You are doing wonderful. What a great two week plan. If you don't mind I'm going to try it out. I have to think about the first thing I'm going to give up. Keep up the excellent work :)
 
I think I've decided to give up diet soda. I usually allow myself to have one a day in the afternoon but water would be better for me. So wish me luck :)

Wow, you're doing great!

I understand about controlling oneself with certain things. I don't buy cheese nips, coz I KNOW I'll go nuts with them if they're here. I just enjoy them when I *run into* them at other people's houses & parties, etc.

The main thing that can give me problems right now is beer. I LOVE the stuff AND the way it makes me feel. But, once I go over a certain amount, not only do I have the extra empty calories from the beer itself, BUT I get the munchies too - and NOT for healthy stuff! :p

So, when I do drink it, I am experimenting with controlling the amounts, so as not to trigger the munchies... keeping some of the pleasure I get from it, but keeping the calories low at the same time.

Seems like you're doing the same thing in your own way. I'm glad it's working for you!
 
Chip~ you are doing great. I too will be giving something up... pop is first on my list (cause I dont drin kmuch of it anyway) and second is surgar... If I can give up sugar, I can do ANYTHING! So Chip, I dedicate my sugarless 2 weeks to YOU!
The only thing I would like you to change is to stop refering to the "Normal Person"... you know? I mean.... what is normal anyway? LOL
