Sick of Being Fat

Aqua aerobics is a great way to start an exercise program. Its gentle on your joints, really supportive and you will be more able to complete a *workout*, than say, swimming laps.

Hydro is another great thing that I see at the gym regularly. You can just walk up and down in the hydro pool or just hold onto the side and do a jogging motion.

See your doctor and get a prescription of phentermine. I am trying to take off 100 pounds and this stuff really takes the hunger away. Your doctor may recommend something else. There is no reason to suffer feeling hungry.

Write down everything you eat. It adds up really fast.

Get some protein powder. They sell it at Wal-Mart. you can also buy it at bodybuilding.com. I use the whey protein. It's about 100 calories per scoop.

I have lost 25 pounds. I can hardly tell. Maybe I will notice when I've lost 50.

Getting started is the hardest part. After a couple of months you get used to it.
