Call Me The Fat Man

That's Right, Call Me The Fat Man. It Just Makes Me More Motivated To Shed More Pounds. I Like My Brother Have Been Combating Excess Weight. It Didn't Happen Over Night So I Know I Cannot Lose It Over Night. Today Was My Day Of Awakening. I Had A Helper With Me All Afternoon And Boy Am I Ever Glad. At First I Thought It Was Age Creeping Up On Me. I Haven't Been Able To Get In And Out Of The Back Of My Work Truck Like I Am Accustomed To. I Found Myself Out Of Breath Doing What I Considered Routine Stuff I Have Been Doing For Years. Today I Realized It's My Weight And It's Not Going To Get Any Better Util I Shed A Good Portion Of It.
When It Get's To The Point It Interferes With My Livelihood Such As My Work In The Truck, Or My Bowling, Heaven Forbid It Will No Longer Be Ignored. It Got My Attention Today And I Am More Determined Than Ever To Do Something About It.
My Brother And Niece Have Inspired Me To Finally Take Control. The Past Years I Allowed Food To Control My Life. No More! The Buck Stops Here!
After A Completed Summers Work I Weigh Less Than 200 Pounds. I Have Been Use To Weighing This For Some Years Now. However 200 Pounds Is Still More Than What I Should Weigh. I Look At It This Way. It's Going To Get Harder To Shed The Weight As I Get Older. My Chances Of Losing Weight Is Better Right Now While I Am Still Active In My Summer Thing. Traditionally I Lose 10-15 Pounds Each Summer. I End Up Putting It Right Back On By The Time Thanksgiving Comes Around.
My Plan Of Action This Year Is To Lose More Than I Usually Do In The Summer Months. If I Can Get My Weight Within 10 Pounds Of What I Should Weigh I Will Feel Better About Myself. I Must Change My Life Completely To Keep Off The Pounds In The Winter Months. That Means All The Bowling Festivities Around The Holiday Must Cease. It Also Means No More Late Night Snacking. In Order To See Results On The Scale I Must Make Some Drastic Changes In My Life. Once I Get Down To The Weight I Am Suppose To Be I Promise Never To Put It Back On. I Enjoy All The Things I Do In Life. My Weight Has Been Effecting All Of It.
I Have A Full Length Mirror In The Bathroom And I Decided To Look At Myself Each Day Just For The Inspiration. If That Doesn't Motivate Me I Don't Know What Else Will.
I Want Someone To Look At Me And Say Wow You Lost Some Weight! Maybe That Will Happen In August When My Winter Bowling Starts Up Again. If Not August Maybe Before I Am Finished With My Truck For The Season. I Know One Thing Is For Certain. I Will Never Get This Big Ever Again. I Can't For My Health's Sake. I Can't Because I Need To Continue My Summer Thing. I Can't Because It Does Affect My Bowling. All Of This Is What's Important To Me.
Yesterday Somebody Made A Wisecrack And Said You Lost Some Weight. I Looked At Him And Told Him I Weigh More Now Than I Ever Did. He Told Me He Was Just Kidding. That Told Me My Weight Is Really Noticeable Now Than Ever Before. It Does Matter How Others View Me. It Makes A Big Difference In How You Are Treated.
Tomorrow Is A New Day For Me. It's Also A New Beginning For A Thinner Me.
