I really like Doug too, I enjoy chatting with him when we watch feeds. I'm very confident he will continue to feel good as long as he is consistant with his wieght loss, the relief that is on his whole body cant be over stated.
I have been over weight-I was when I was a kid, I'm not so skinny now LOL
since I got sidelined from the gym I have put on some fat, soon as I can get to the gym I will lose it because I like the benefits and the pleasure of food is NEVER better than how good it feels not to have the excess weight, I have done good considering how long I have been unable to excecise-enough about me, I just wanted to establish my credentials before i give advice. Doug here is a bit of advice(I know everybody gives it to you-but please bear with me ok?)
Doug, here is the simpelest way to stay on track with your goal of losing weight and getting healthy, i'm not going to tell you whats good/bad I know you know whats what???
PLEASE READ BELOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

So here it is:
Every time you go to eat or are eating there are 2 possible things it(the food) can be, its a assett or liability. Thats it!! So when you decide to eat ask your self is good or bad? and how much you eat is it enough or too much?
Food is out best medicine or worst poisen. too much or the wrong thing will kill anyone, the right stuff keeps us alive.
So just look at EVERYTHING you eat/drink EVERYTIME is it good/bad or the right amount or too much. When you do this its impossible to poisen your self any more, those days are long gone.
Is is a assett or liability??? answere that before you take another bite, and dont take the bite if its a liability, if its a assett take the bite. Its just that simple!
If you think about it, it is the truth, no foods are inert(meaning they dont have any calories or nutritional value).
And yes I will REP you back, when You REP me for this. :smile:
I really like you and care about you too! I'm being very serious about this, please let me know if I can help/motivate you any time, a good support structure of friends is very important, we all want the best for you. Go ahead and ask yourself: is is a assett or liability for me??? you will find your way to the good fast.
sincerly
eric
ps this will work for anybody, I figured this out about 16 years ago, about the time I retired from pool.
Now that takes some lettuce and water...
