Flack's Daily Smack

Congrats Flack. You're wise to be trimming down. You're literally adding years on to your life by knocking that much weight off. Good luck on the next round.

 

Competitions like this really are the best way to break bad habits, especially when it involves weight loss or quitting smoking.

You are right. The hardest part was actually taking a step back and evaluating what I was eating and what exercise I was getting (none). In the beginning walking once a day was HARD -- now, I feel lazy if I don't do so! At work I dreaded the stairs and used the elevators whenever possible. Now I look forward to them! It is true what they say, the first step is the hardest. Moreso for tightrope walkers, but it applies to dieters too.
