Well, due to the fact that I had by-pass surgery nearly 3 weeks ago to take care of 3 blocked arteries I would say that I WILL be onboard with making 2010 a healthier year for the good Doctor. I forsee fewer Corona's this year along with a healthier diet.
Among other things, the big thing for me will be avoiding lunches at the Taco Bell that haunts me just down the road from my office. That got totally out of hand last year!

In adddtion, my new motto is "lose the roll with portion control"! :lol:

Good luck to everyone for a healthier 2010!!!!!

I've got a doctor's appointment on January 6th to plot out the plan for getting the last fifteen pounds off!
I know what to do, I just need to have the accountability to the doctor, she's pretty strict and I need that!

You guys and gals are an inspiration.
After about two years of keeping it off I have gained some weight back due to not caring much on the weekends and not exercising consistantly.
I'm hovering around 230. It does not sound like much considering I was once 283 but it's made most of my clothes too tight to wear. I'd like to get back to 210.
The other day I had to hit Wally World for a couple of pairs of cheap emergency jeans until I rectify this. A number of different times I've tried to get back on track but keep backsliding after a few days. A couple days ago I got back into it.

For the last few days my motto has been "I can do it, I have done it, I will do it".
Sounds corny but I keep thinking that.
I'll be hitting the treadmill in a few minutes.

Not corny at all.....I do self-affirmations every day....and every day I write messages to myself on my bathroom mirror...sometimes profound, sometimes just simple like "Today is a good day".

THANKS!
Even if I never get the last 15 off I'll be pretty happy....it's weird for me to think that "I'm just a few pounds" overweight instead of the horrible "O" word.

MY "thing" on the FRIDGE is Just Say NO! (The doctor says to GET rid of the MILK...even the 1 or 2%!!!)

I have also put the worst possible photo up there...and then one when I was close to 130! Of course I was 25 then!! :lol: :lol:

Y'all know my motto. KEEP ON KEEPIN ON!!
