chesgreen's Journal, 07 November 2016

I was lost, but now I'm found.

Just a little upswing because reeses cups and snyders honey mustard pretzels bites, need to say more?

I am wearing 36 slacks now with a belt. I am so proud of my journey this year. I started this year wearing 40s that were tight on me. I can now tie my shoes without worrying if my head will pop off.

Reading Good Calories Bad Calories now. I am also listening to The Big Fat Surprise audio book every moment I get. My mind is getting stronger I and making better and better decisions.

On my way.

Way to go Ches! I laffed hard about your head popping off... You and some of the other guys have been an inspiration to my Hubby. He finally was ready and started eating differently and working out lightly and lost 3.8 pounds this past week! Good luck to you and keep the faith!

You're doing great Ches! I love that you're making such progress and that you're really focused. You're reading and learning and that will stay with you for life.

Ahhh - yes, I have listened to both of those books many times. There are a few others you may enjoy, too. "Keto Clarity" is informative,"Grain Brain", "Living Low Carb", "Secrets to a Healthy Metabolism", "Smart Fat", and then there are bodybuilding/nutrition books: "Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle", and "The Body Fat Solution." Probably TMI - but as you can see, I love audiobooks and have learned so much.

Hi Ches! You have been an inspiration for me this weekend when I wanted to cave in a few times - I kept thinking "Ches knows what dedication is - buck up!" I definitely couldn't tie my shoes when I started!

Great job, ches! On a side note, I was standing in the checkout line a couple days ago and there was a bag of the snyder honey mustard bites just STARING at me, DARING me to buy it. I resisted but honestly, I think I had a bit of drool out the side of my mouth....they used to be a favorite. Many bags have passed these lips and stuck on my hips!

Job well done. Keep it up because I believe we all know how difficult a journey it was.
