It is 4:00am a i am at work. I am so hungry. This is the time were i normally go see what is in the vending machine. instead for some reason i decided to open up the blog.
I will not be going down to the vending machine now. I need to eat healthy and be strong for my family and myself.
My mother is in the hospital with COPD and Diabetes,My father has Diabetes, My oldest bother Steve has very bad Diabetes, Curt just found out two weeks ago that he has Crohns deseas and today my sister Cindy found out the she has pregnacy indused Diabetes. (she is having Twins)
This cant happen to me. I need to stop the trend. I am already missing a foot. the chances of me ending up with Diabetes is very high. I cant afford for this to happen.
I have been on a weight loss rollor coster ride for the last 5 years. When will it stop?
Well I hope that having somebody to talk about it with will help.
Sorry for being so random
Greg

Gregg ... it is really scarey to look at the health that our parents are in and think ...that could be me....I have my dads knees and the extra 29 lbs that I was carring around prevented me from playing with the kids..and also I was limited to what I could do or not do...I am no athlette now but at least I can get up out of bed without pain...well most of the time.Stick we us ...we can all do this together....
Love you when we got your back, Jack.....
sorry to hear about your family
I must say I always was on a roller coaster diet to but when this blog came out and people listen to you and give you ideas what to have for a snack instead it really does help. WhenIfirst started I did no start big.. for instance I still wanted chips so instead of salt (wich retains water) I got no salt(believe me it works with a small sandwich)Intead of steak and potato I would make us Tacos (all of the salad ingredints is good for you).. So like Aunt Paula said Stick with us kid and you will be all set...
I'm so glad you came here instead of going to the vending machine! This challenge is about all of us changing our lives and breaking our cycles. You are stronger than your cycle - I know you can do this and when you're feeling weak, we are all here to hold you up.
Greg you are on the right path if you stay with us. Your family health history is so much like mine with diabetis.I lost my mom to complications from it. The new year is a new start for me and so far so good. Stick with it and just keep going even if you slip up. This is the year of more exercise for me with the WII. Two weeks straight for me. I have notice a difference already. Keep it up.
