Hi

I have been around this site for a few years now, however I have not utilized all the benefits to finally conquer this weightloss battle.

I have been going through this fight my entire life. I think finding this particular board is just what I need. Besides this weightloss battle I am trying to strenghten my walk with the Lord.

I really need help with both areas. The weight issues have trinkeled down to my son. Like myself he was born early and was under weight for a few years but when the weight started coming boy did it come. He is only 11 and last time he got weighed he was 180+ pounds. I am just over the 300 mark, waaayyy too much for both of us. I have already started with a number of health issuses and with his size his future will be filled with the same but at a much younger age.

Soooo any advice or a point in the right direction for spiritual growth and weightloss will be greatly appreciated.


Thanks for listening(reading)

what has worked for me is not the typical diet routine, maybe you can try it too, for breakfast and lunch i eat extremly lean protein, and am very strict on my calories and fat grams, then at dinner i have the yummy comfort food, homemade spagetti w/meat and parmesan cheese, i eat raw fruit watermelon cantelpoe, pieces of turkey lunch meat breakfast/lunch, then at dinner you can have meatloaf & mashed potatoes, but a reg size plate, never seconds and never eating after that for the day, youll get used to it eventually

Hi CCINDY

I just wanted to say thanks so much for taking the time to respond. Your suggestion is well worth trying. I am curretly fowolling any real program. Suggestio is a starting point was appreciated.

I too, have been in this battle for a long time. I have been recently trying to strenghten my walk with the lord also - maybe we can go through this together.

I am currently at 214.5 and have just started (yesterday) to watch what I eat. I know I can do this! It just takes one step at a time.

Not only do I want to be healthy and feel better (my hips are killing me!) I also want to set a good example for my son.

If you want, please feel free to PM me! I would love to talk!

Take Care - and best wishes!
