When the idea of the Biggest Loser came up I got very excited about it. I had put on a few extra pounds and thought what a great motivational tool to get me living a healthier lifestyle. I know that seems odd coming from a PE teacher but keep in mind I was finally recovered from a knee injury (which kept me from moving), took a month long trip to Europe (cruising and staying with family), I love food, and sadly was looking at heel surgery. In the last year and a half put 25 pounds on me.
So I made a plan, set a goal, and was all ready to embark on a journey to shed some pounds with my colleagues....then January 12th came. First day back at school and I tore my right knee meniscus. Knee surgery was coming. Now there was no way to compete for the title.
Being a glass half full guy I decided it wouldn't derail me. Knowing I could not do the physical exercise portion of my plan I stuck with my food intake plan. As of today I have lost 16 pounds from my all time high of 260 in December. This actually hasn't been to difficult and I have no cravings.
So colleagues, after talking with a couple of you I decided to start writing down some of the things I have learned over the years in hope that it helps some of you reach your goals for a healthier lifestyle.
Please feel free to check back as I will post things as I think of them.
Feel free to share this link with your friends and family, if you wish.
