Goal Realized, the pig is dead!

233 and  I'm feeling great.   I officially killed off Porky and the lifestyle of the obese and unhealthy. Wait a minute according to what I read I'm still a big ass.  But suffice it to say I reached my goal.  How does a 60 year old fat ass change his abusive lifestyle.    Here is what worked for me:

The first element is I made it personal.   I thought I was setting a poor example for my sons and because it is important for them to have a positive lifestyle I felt I had too.  

I'm a control freak, realizing this I did it my way.  Well not really, I do listen to Dr Oz and Dr Linda and Dr Ryan all whom are authorities on the subject.   But I like to think it was my way.    So........... 10 weeks ago I began.    

Establish a goal that is realistic and measurable.    10% of my body weight.   (261) goal was (234.9)
Establish accountability.   Who better then friends and family to promise your best effort.   I wanted to humiliate myself to them through this blog and honestly tell  hem my progress and setbacks.  
Don't give it all away.   I love food and I wanted to do this and still have my cake and eat it too.   So with that in mine, I lessened portions and ate much less of the junk.   I did refer to the three Drs mentioned above and did eat a lot more fruits and vege's.    I almost eliminated all carbonated beverages.  

In the end I reached my goal in 9 weeks and two days and am now at 233.   Do I dare go more???????

I love all who may have read or will read this and will let you know that my posts will be less but I will post more when there is more to say.  

Oink, no no no!.     I can change the sign off to    

Slim!!!
