Why did I let myself get so fat in the first place? I am the cautionary tale of how bad eating habits will come back to haunt you later in life. I ate horribly. I ate too much. I ate unhealthy foods. I could go on and on. Now I am in my 40's, and really want to lose weight, but doing so is not easy.
I weighed myself, and as of yesterday, I am still at 259 lbs, which is right in the range of where my weight has been for more than a year.
I personally do not believe in diets, because I feel they do not solve the problem that most overweight people have...bad eating habits. I have been working on this for a long time and have been able to lose about 60 lbs over a 7 year period and keep it off. But I have plateaued. Up until now losing weight did not take much effort, but now I can see it will take much more effort to get this excess fat off.
I feel I am doing the right things. I am eating less and exercising a lot more, but there is much more I can do. I now see that I am going to have to be much more militant about what I eat, if I am going to make my goal to lose 50 lbs within the next year....Stay tuned
