Sick and Tired

Hello everyone ~

I am making a life style change. While difficult I know the more people who know about it the more likely I am to continue with it. There are a few reasons why I need this change the #1 is while at the cardiologist I found my levels to be a little high and my sugar was way too high. I've always been a larger person and never looked like I would weigh 303 lbs but got a rude awakening at the last Dr. visit. I had never given much thought to my weight because I have always been strong. I have always done strength training each week and am still able to move a lot of weight. On the otherhand I am ashamed of myself for weighting as much as I do. I can justify it all I want by the idea I only weight 25 more lbs than I did in high school, but I guess I'm just sick and tired. I have to remind myself I have children and a grand child a lovely wife and cannot take the easy softer way any more.

I credit my brother for introducing me to this site, but look for more people to get to know.

on a side note ........... well I've been on MFP for 3 full days and love it. Traking and being held accountable by what I eat and how begin to keep active is a great tool.
