How may of you only need to loose 1 - 2 or maybe 5 pounds? If you answered YES: Get out of here!
This place is not for you.
Now, for the rest of us who have serious pounds...guess what? We don't need a bloody scale to tell us we're overweight because we already know that! It's not a secret, its not like we need a machine to tell us!
We have already gotten the message...and its repeated every time we look in the mirror or try to slip into last years jeans.
Want to know if your loosing weight? Its not rocket science...you know your loosing weigh when you need to shop for a smaller size.
How will I know if the program isn't working...well I guess you not going shopping this weekend!
I'm not trying to be insensitive so please accept my apology if I have offended any of you...sorry.
For most of us its taken years to get where we are today...and to keep it off its probably going to take year to do that as well.
Quick solutions? Not here so if you want a magic bullet get out of here I don't have any.
In my other post I talk about a Weight Loss Chapel for those of us who think that only a miracle can get the weight off. I know that's pretty cheezy. But I do believe in miracles and I do beleive that we all have the power to make them come true.
cheers

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
But yeah, I do believe in miracles too. I also believe that we can work to make miracles! I'm working on mine right now! And I know that its going to take a year or maybe even 2 to get me down to where I want to be! And I'm okay with that. I am SOOOO done with crash diets and quick fixes. I'm working this time with an eye to keeping it off forever. So I have to accept the fact that its not going to be easy and it may take a while. I'm cool with that. :)
Thanks for the post, Richard!
