I started my "diet" when lent started. I gave up coffee, fast food (I'd eat out about 3 times a week) and soft drinks. Right before lent started I was fluctuating between 238 and 241. Right now I'm down to 224 and haven't started any kind of exercise yet. Just those 15 pounds lighter and I feel ALOT better than just a few weeks ago. I plan on continuing this diet and also throwing in some jogging and lightweight workouts. Before I put on the extra weight I would do about 100 push-ups before my shower every morning, when I started my diet I couldn't do 5!!! Now I'm up to doing 2 sets of 25 and every week I add a set. My goal is to get down to 200 then I'll set a new goal once I get there to maintain my weight. I can't wait to get down to that just to feel like my old self again.
