Coming up with a new plan

Well I think I have finally have had my day in weight court. I've been hovering over the same 200-205 pounds for the past year and it is time, high time, to get off this merry-go-round. I've come to realize that what I did five years ago to lose 40 pounds just is not going to cut it anymore. So I have decided that I need help. And I'm going to take that help in the form of Alli. I've thought about this quite a bit. Now I remember the big rave about Alli when it first came out and then the boos and hiss after hearing that if you eat too much fat then it will come out and quickly. There's no passing gas hoping that nothing comes out with it. Hell there's no wearing light colored pants unless you are really secure in your food intake. My husband has graciously agreed to join me on this quest because let's be honest here, we can't get right if only one of us is on the plan. Besides, I was there when he was at his heaviest and I supported him through his change. So what do I need to do? I need to document like crazy. Like I need to take pictures of my body and measurements of my body. I need to actually write down everything that I put into my mouth. I'm already documenting how much activity I do on a daily basis. The real question is this-- what will it take to have me stay consistent. Will I have to bribe myself to get myself right? Will I have to buy one of those refrigerators with alarms on them? Do I need to buy new plates that are smaller than the ones I have to ensure I don't pile it on? Well whatever it takes, I just know that playtime is over if I want to get right. I can't get right by myself. I'm enlisting an army.

Good luck on the weight loss. Drinking lots of water helps to curb the appetite. Not too mention the weight loss that can be gained through treadmill.

Thanks for the support, I'll be trying it again. Hopefully I won't sabotage the progress.

I'm sure you will be fine. You appear to be dead set on it.
