Words of Encouragement

Hi, so I guess I need to go right back to the beginning. I joined this site nearly 600 days ago, why because I was overweight, was diabetic, high cholesterol , pulse rate was 72 at rest. Ok so I was a mess ) so it got me thinking the cause of all this was me, nobody else. So i needed to know how much I was eating, for a week I wrote down everything I was eating and drinking. Shock, horror!!! Nearly 3,000 calories a day. 3,000 calories = 1lb in weight. The main problem was not only eating junk food but. Also eating between meals. Drastic I know but I reduced my calories to 1300 daily and started cycling. The weight has now melted away, losing 90lbs so far. So here is the shock and surprise have just had a series of blood tests done and a medical. Results, not diabetic, cholesterol 4.1. Pulse rate at rest 49. But hey I am cycling 170 miles per week:))
Finally, I have the most amazing support team on this site, did I say support team? No what I meant to say is the best friends I have ever had. Remember your body is on loan, you do not own it so look after yourself and live life to the full.
