Default 28 pounds in 5 weeks

I still have another 40 pounds to lose but the end is in sight!!
It definitely feels wonderful to be back in the 100's and getting further and further away from the 200s.

I was having some potassium issues and only worked out once a week. Now I've got all the tools and keeping it under control so I can start working out 5 times a week and really hit my goal.

I haven't felt this good in so long!

Trust me...if I can do it, anybody can do this. Keep going and don't get discouraged, even if you mess up. I messed up once and I've still managed to get back on track and do great.

Congrats! You've done awesome and you'll do even better now that you start exercising 5x a week.

"The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.

Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
