Before?

Not Quite, But I Sure Felt Like It!
It Must Be A Tradition With Me Year In And Year Out. I Put It On Then Take It Off. It's My Weight I Am Referring To.
I Weighed Myself In April And It Was An Easy Number To Remember. On 4-21 I Weighed 214. Ofcourse My Summer Gig Had Just Got Started. I Found Another Notch On My Belt That I Never Dreamed I Would Be Using. Am I Happy? Yea I'm Glad I Lost 20 Pounds Because I Can Move About Alot Easier Now That I Am Not Carrying An Additional Amount Of Weight. I Think What Bothers Me Most Is I Really Can't See On My Body Where I Have Lost The Weight.
For Those Who Knows Me The Best Are Aware Of My Buldging Belly. I Was Kind Of Hoping To Lose Some Of That! No Such Luck!
Life At 194 Is Much Better Than 214. According To My Heighth Chart I Should Weigh About 170 Pounds. If That Is Correct Then I Have Another 24 Pounds To Lose.
To Be Honest About It Quitting Smoking Led To My Weight Gain. Those Who Know Me Best Can Vouch For That. I Had Been Skinny Most Of My Life. I Weighed Between 130-135 Pounds Since I Was In High School. I Entered The Navy Weighing 132 Pounds.
I'm Not Into These Weight Loss Programs. I Think It's A Good Thing For Those Who Seek A Social Gathering Looking To Reach The Same Goal.
I Will Continue Doing What I Have Been Doing And Hopefully I Will Lose Some More Weight. I Think However The First 20 Was The Easiest. It's Quite Obvious The 20 Pounds I Need To Lose Is In My Midsection.
Maybe I Can Lose A Little There If I Do A Few AB Excersizes. I Just Hope I Don't Put All That Weight Back On This Coming Winter. It's So Hard On Me In The Month Of April When My Season Starts And Mushrooms Begin To Pop Up. I Try Walking Throughout The Winter Months To Help Keep The Weight Off. Even If I Don't Achieve My Goal, Atleast I Am Consious Of It. If I Didn't Care, My Weight Would Increase Which Would Make It More Difficult To Take Off. My Biggest Reason Why I Need To Keep Fit Is Because Of What I Do In The Warmer Months. This Is My Livihood And This Is Where I Get My Inner Peace. It's Important To Me To Continue What I Have Been Doing The Past 22 Years.
So This Is My Personal Challenge That Nobody Can Do But Me. From Here On Out It Will Be More Difficult To Lose The Weight Where I Need To Lose It The Most.
It Would Please Me If I Was Able To Be The Weight I Am Suppose To Be. However I Won't Allow It To Become An Obbsession Where I Don't Enjoy All The Good Things In Life.
I Guess Art Linkletter Said It Best. You Can Eat All The Foods You Want But In Smaller Portions. Now Don't Quote Me To Be Exact Yet The Meaning Is The Same. So If It's Ice Cream You Like? Instead Of That Medium Size, Ask For The Small. You Can Have Your Cake And Eat It Too!
