Welcome to the board, Jason!

Nice picture of you and your son.

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!"

Welcome, Jason! That is a really adorable and cute young'n you've got there! Yes, you do owe it to him--to be able to run and play with him and give piggy back rides. Then you will need to be able to teach him how to hit a ball and run the bases. You are in danger doing any of that stuff at over 300 pounds.

Best of luck changing your life for the better.

Welcome to the board, Jason!
Your son is such a cutie, and he's lucky to have a dad who is going to take care of himself.

Best of luck.

Hey Jason - congrats on getting the courage up to join and introduce yourself. (I just did the same routine last week - lurk, draft an initial post, delete it, lurk, then finally post...). Good group of folks here. We're all in this together. Do it for your little man...!
