Ht. 5'6", Start: 170 lb, Today: 171 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 140 lb - You know how there is guit about what you ate? For the first time, I think I am going through that! Here's why:
-----
Four to five hours ago, I claimed that I was going to start trying to lose weight. Then we went to Joe's.
_
Think of a potatoe (forgive the spelling) that you might get in a 5lb bag at the store. Now think of *TWO* of those. Figuring that there are about 15 potatoes in a bag of 5lb, that is about 3 lbs each, and I had you think of two smashed together. I'll let you do the math from there...
-----
There is no WAY that I can start a weight loss thing like this on Sunday, and I have P.E. every day (week days). I think that I might try to go do about 2 miles running on Monday, or Sunday. What ever day I can get my hands on first, I'll do it.
------
Side note: This is NOT the first time I have tried to lose weight... I gave up last time. Gained 10 lbs from that, so I AM NOT going to give up this time. (Also, that was the same exact thing I said last time, so let's see how those words play out. )

don't give up Andrew you can do it!! with God on your side losing weight is possible!! he can help you!! prey and ask him to help you!! I promise you he will help you!! look up nurtion facts, calories, sodum, sugars, clorstor, instead of something high and fat try something low fat and healthier as possible, being a calorie dective is a good idea, lables, how much have a helahty sald, have low dressing on the side, it ok if you don't use it up. That a tip I learned four years ago. Drink more water, less soda, un sweetned ice tead, with lemons, next time when you got out to eat, go to their website and look up the caloies, and fats.
