Ive now lost slightly over 30 lbs since I was my heaviest earlier this spring, most of my weight coming off since I quit working at the Mars Chocolates plant they have recently built in Topeka. My wife convinced me to change my diet and eat healthier. My waist has gone down 5 sizes, from about 40 down to 35. I am 3 lbs away from my goal, of being under 200 lbs as a healthy weight for the first time since my late teenage years! Changing my diet was very hard. I didnt realize just how addicted to sugary, sweet foods I was. For 2 weeks, I craved sweets so badly that it put me in a bad mood! I was mad at everything, my wife, step-kids, myself, everything. Every time I would drive somewhere, I would stop and get some sort of junk food. Also, since losing the weight, my ailments have completely gone. No more sore feet or ankles! Since eating healthy, my bike riding times have continued to spike to new highs. I always had a certain average MPH I could reach, then plateau. I just assumed that that was the best my body could do. Since Ive lost weight and changed my diet, Ive blasted past those previous highs. In fact, my old best times are now just my average times. One thing Ive never realized, is just how much difference a diet makes in a workout program. Its actually as important as the workout itself!
