Hello April : The Hard Way!

After high school my weight went from 150 pounds up to around 230 pounds. I learned that I was obese and I started walking to lose weight. By walking I managed to get back down to 150 pounds. I did nothing to maintain my weight-loss and when the stress of life hit, I gained back all the weight. By January of 2009 I was once again 200 pounds. For the past 5 years I have been struggling with my weight until I recently weighed in at 300 pounds. In my journey over the past 5 years to lose weight I have read hundreds of weight-loss articles, read tons of diet books, joined gyms,  and even successfully maintained a regular walking routine only to find that my body has not really changed.

What I realize now is that the only way for me to change my body is for me to do things the long hard way! I have to eliminate all unnecessary calories from my diet. I have to stop eating sweets/snacks, fatty fast foods and sweet drinks. I have to go on a diet or die!

So here is my Do or Die Diet Plan:

Breakfast: Energy Bar + Fresh Fruit

Lunch: Energy Bar + Fresh Fruit

Dinner: Smart One, Amy's Burrito, Can of Soup, Beans and Rice, Turkey Sandwich

No Snacks

No Sweets

No Sweet Drinks

I will follow this plan from April until January 1, 2015 and I will be able to reform my body and rescue myself from my bad eating habits. I will weigh myself on January 2, 2015. My last known weight was 300 pounds.
