Over the last 2 years, my son has lost 191lbs! It was exactly 1/2 of his body weight. He just turned 42, he hasn't been this light of weight since before he graduated from high school! When he started, this was his goal. His Dr. told him she was proud of him, but he had to stop loosing weight once he reached his goal. Now that he has proven to himself he could do it, both his Dr. and him have decided that 200lbs was a good weight for him (he is 6'1" tall), he intends to keep the extra weight off.

He has a host of body problems and he just decided he needed to loose the weight. He has type 2 diabetes and they put him on a new medication. At the same time he started walking on a treadmill 2 hours a day, started working out with weights, started eating 1/2 portions at every meal (from what he was eating) and he drinks huge amounts of water every day. He has gone from 4x to 1x clothes.

As a side note I probably weighed 200lbs at his age, but I could stand to loose 50-60lbs now. Its just that getting started thing...

That is awesome!! I too could stand to lose a few myself. I so agree with getting started is the worst. JIm

)Yesterday I was at Costco buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my loyal pet which weighs 191 lbs. I was in the check-out line when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog. What did she think I had an elephant? So because I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again. I added that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms. I told her that it was essentially a Perfect Diet and that the way that it works is, to load your jacket pockets with Purina Nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try it again. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with my story.) Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her, no, I stopped to Pee on a Fire Hydrant and a car hit me. I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard. Consequently, Costco won't let me shop there anymore. You better watch what you ask retired people.

Well, I'm in the emergency room now. This afternoon was not good at all. I decided to go horseback riding, to ease the boredom... something I haven't done in a while. It turned out to be a big mistake!
I got on the horse and started out fine. Nice and slow, but then we went a little faster. Before I knew it, we were going as fast as the horse could go. I couldn't take the pace and fell off. I caught my foot in the stirrup with the horse dragging me. It wouldn't stop. Hit my head, banged up my back and elbow, pretty good, and tore my shirt.
Thank goodness the kind manager at Dollar General came out and unplugged the machine. But, he had the nerve to take the rest of my change so I wouldn't ride the Elephant or Motorcycle. I was also banned from the Merry-go-round. The nerve!
