Well I just found a horrifying picture on my computer today it was taken about 16 months ago. OMG I look like i am about to die of a Heart Attack. And probably on my way to death for sure. I decided enough was enough this current June 20th that I am sick and tired of not living life. Just seeing this picture makes me sad for that person (who is me LOL) I just had to post a pic from today along side it. I have been working really hard and weighing ever single thing that goes past these lips. I realized something about myself. I can not be trusted with Food. It is who I am and I know that I have to be accountable for every bit. It really has helped me keep in line. I also quit all booze which i will never go back to because it just messes up my focus. I might have posted some of this stuff on here.. but this picture really drove me to say it all out loud again. Thanks for listening.

Thank you everyone for the kind words and encouragement. It will certainly help me move forward to stay on course. Yes it has been hard work and I have yet to drink alcohol or eat above my calories during this long road. I know now that this road does not end or there is no goal other than to keep eating right and exercising. For me its the only way. I have failed on more than a bunch of occasions losing a lot of weight because i had a goal. It could have been an event or some other goal like that. My only goal now is to live a better life and feel better in my skin. I am not an expert at this by any means and I say these thing out loud here to help myself stay the course and if it helps my fellow journey folk that makes me happy also.
