4 Months in - I've lost 40lbs with virtually no exercise!

I have already put one of these success stories already but im putting it again because of my milestone of losing 40 lbs.

Background:
I have been on this since September. After my daughter turned 1, i realized that the life i had before wasnt the one i wanted to continue. Now dont get me wrong, i wasnt a fat slob and eating ridiculous Paula deens receipes... but i didnt want to be fat anymore. I know the hardships that come with it and i knew i needed a change. Then the real reality hit and i went for a sleep study. They said i had mild sleep apnea. While i dont trust it because the sleep study was one of the worst experiences of my life(i just wasnt comfortable sleeping so i knew i would have it) i didnt want to chance it and i definitely wanted to make the change. My daughter and wife need me for the rest of their lives.. i wanted to be there. So... Starting weight was 232.4

Diet:
Working in the city is a pain in the *kitten*. its an hour commute and it sucks but its the job so i deal with it. At work the diet was just following the basics... go with limits im given ... the first week sucked but after that, i was used to it. I love this. No restrictions but to the limits of ingrediants. I discovered foods i never did before like Chicken burgers (Freaking yummy) and weight control Oatmeal(tastes like freaking pancakes)... i wish i could work out but from work it becomes that i cant see my daughter so i just did this straight diet and no exercise.

Results:
So far i have lost 40lbs and its showing. I have been having compliments left and right. Of course its weird to hear that im a new person because i can only imagine how big i was before.This has been an experience and a half... also im happy to say that im even sleeping much much better than before. Im getting much better sleep and feeling much better health wise.

Future:
While im still 20 lbs away from my goal, i will continue to push forward and not stopping. People have told me that i should stop because i look great now. Hell no... im not stopping til i reach my goal. I can do this. From now until March 17 i will continue with the diet and then up my calories because then i will have a personal trainer kick my *kitten*.

Moral to the story to all new comers that need convincing:
Im a career dieter. I mean i have tried them all. But this one is the best one. You have to be disciplined and do research to a better you. This all includes work but without pain there is no gain. You can do this. If i can do this anyone can.. you just have to want it. All you need is the will to reach it and you can. Its an old cliche but its the truth. You cant let food control your life, you have to control it.
