Getting serious again

This is ridiculous. I’ve been hovering at 170 pounds for way too long. I want to get to 140, and I’m tired of not making steady progress in that direction. I know what I need to do, but I haven’t done it. I think my best bet now is a plan, starting with my food.

It’s late and I need to sleep (another weight loss essential!) but my goal for tomorrow will be to create a meal plan for the next seven days and go buy what I need for it. And to keep me honest, I’ll post the meal plan here. (Somebody smack me if I don’t!)

I love your domain name. As I was approaching my 50th birthday a few months ago, I decided that I needed to start “my second half” in good shape. I had been active in my teens and 20s, but after I got married (late 20s) and we had a son, I wasn’t as active. Careers, years and beers conspired to add a pound or two each year, and even though I just got to 200 when I retired from the Air Force, I was now looking at 230 and buying larger slacks for work (second career).

Project management and work experience told me what to do, so I put together a mental plan, followed through, and dropped 30 pounds between February and October. It’s not really a diet–it’s a decision, an intentional lifestyle change. And I still enjoy a good chocolate brownie from Starbucks or a nice bottle of beer.

I wanted to make it open source, and since your site already has the best domain name, I just created a page on my site (link included).

If this sketch of my plan helps, great!

Probably the best way that i have found to lose weight naturally is having a fibre rich diet along with drinking a glass of prune juice every day. I also take ‘bowel cleanse’ which is fantastic.

Not only has my health improved for it, I also sleep like ababy every night!
