04/03/2012: ""The End of My Weight Loss Journey, 2012""

It's been 3 years since I started "My Weight Loss Journey." My last attempt was joining Weight Watchers Online. My daughter had been on it for 2 months and lost 12 pounds,so I thought I'd give it a try. I started January 1, 2012. I did very good the first few months and then I had a big craving for home-made pot stickers. I'm pretty sure I ate 20 or so in a couple days. Then my daughter started working and mentioned that she might as well not try to stay on her diet since she would be eating the restaurant food a few days a week. After that it just didn't seem that important enough to stay with weight watchers because nothing will work if you don't make that commitment and get some self control. Here's the deal. Eat half as much as you normally do and get off your ass a few hours a day, at least. You have to move every part of your body in order to get all the aches and pains straightened out. I don't know how many times I've said it but no one wants to believe that's all you have to do. They look at me like I'm nuts to even mention it. Why won't it sink in? Even in my head.
I'm going to start right now. My lipoma has been gone for 6 days and my kidney surgeon said "See you in 2 years," so at least I'm not worried about the possibility of having cancer for awhile.
I can't believe how great my arm feels without that huge thing sitting on my muscle. I'll bet it was a few pounds. I'll have to check on that.
Today is my grandaughters 21st birthday. I hope she handles her liquor well. My oldest son always takes the kids for their first legal drinks at the bar and then delivers them back home. What a guy!
