Lose Weight With Me For 2006

August 20th, 2008 by Go Weblog

“Fat Pig” , “Beached Whale!” I’m tired of it all. I’m too much of a coward to kill myself so I guess I must change and the first way I need to change is to say goodbye to my best friend of 40 years: Junk food. Yes, at 350 pounds I have reached my Epiphany! I need; no I WANT to lose weight! Before it kills me. I can just see my funeral with all of my best friends drawing straws to see who will NOT be my poll bearers! “Not me, got a bad back!” etc. It’s time. Now if anyone wants to join me(and I can’t believe anyone would WANT to join me) I will be writing a weekly article here to walk(ugh) through my triumphs and tragedies with you.

We WILL lose weight! I am tired of being a “Fat person”. The first assignment, since we don’t officially begin until next Monday(1/1/06) Is to write down all of the foods that are good for you that you like. Next you will write down all of the snack foods that have stopped you from losing weight before. Then you will write down all of the exercizes that you can still do, and all of the activities that you would like to do if you were able to. That should provide motivation enough for us to begin our journey together. Someone once wrote that no one knows more about dieting and exercize than fat people!

I agree with that so I won’t be instructing anyone about anything except what you probably already have read and heard. Besides I am no doctor(I don’t even play one on TV). I will just be here to share with all of you the struggle to survive without feeling like it is not worth it. You see it is about replacing what you have (food and some lack of self) with confidence and food. (Sounds weird but you notice you still have food) In my Bio I noted that God is one of my interests. Well from time to time i may use a reference from the Bible because I really can’t live without referencing His Word.

The devil gave Eve a choice a long time ago. He promised her a choice between good and evil. And to know the difference. But what it doesn’t say is that they already KNEW GOOD! They KNEW GOD! I am telling you that you know the difference, you know what to do, and now it is time to choose good. Choose to live and choose life. You don’t have to “give up’ or ‘deprive yourself” of anything that is good. The devil made some things “LOOK GOOD” I’m saying you know what to do and it is time. Now is the time to change your life for the better. You need to do it, and if you are reading this, you need to do it now.

Alan (Bud) Speaker is a complex, compassionate caring man who, at almost 50 years old (3/13/56) is by most people’s description either “heavy, fat, obese jocular, and in this holiday season, Santaesque.” He has been interested in reading and writing and words all of his life but has only started seriously writing since the turn of the century. (sounds longer than 5 years). His interests are God, self improvement, family, sports and creative writing, although not always in that order. Bud has written poetry, short stories, television dramas and short plays although only the poems have been published. Bud’s goal for this year is to lose weight and write about it. Also he wants to finish writing the one book he was meant to write about: Streetball in his hometown of Philadelphia.

Tired of Weight Loss Scams

March 26th, 2008 by Go Weblog

Every day we are bomabarded by images of beautiful celebrities who seem to achieved impossibly perfect figures. How do they do it? With expensive personal trainers, gormet food home delivery and deluxe spa treatments. Well what about those of us who don’t have the time and money to spend on indulging in the lastest $1000 per month spa foods delivery or spend two hours a day at budokon class? In other words, wouldn’t it be nice to lose a ton of weight with minimal effort? No tough exercise program, just you relaxing at home watching the pounds fall off. I, for one, have been searching for a program like that FOREVER! I’ve spent hundreds, (at this point probably thousands of dollars), testing out all those new fad diets and weight loss pills only to be disapointed again and again.

Whether its the South Beath, Atkins, Zone, Hoodia suppliments, cortisol, green tea supplements, grapefruit supplements, we’ve seen all the fantastic claims that people have made about losing tons of weight, and they show you how you can do the same thing. I can tell you right now that 99% of these people are total frauds. You may have even fallen prey to one of these scam artists, selling you their lastest “lose weight fast” programs. Me too. I’ve bought so many of these programs that I can’t even recall how many. I don’t know why, but I tend to find the “good” in people, and I was “sold” by these marketing schemes time and time again, even after being scammed by another. Finally, after so many disappointments, I got FED UP! I was tired of yo yo dieting. I wanted to lose weight and keep it off.

So I did some serious investigation as to what programs were frauds and which ones weren’t. Essentially, we all know that in order to lose weight you need to expend more calories than you intake. Well, sounds easy enough, but whether its becuase of emotional overeating or lack of physical activity, most of us can’t manage. So then I started looking into a couple of programs that made sense biologically. I looked for programs that had a staff on hand to answer any questions that I had and to support me in my weight loss goals. After much trial and error, I finally found a few programs that I now believe in. If you’re tired of supplements and drugs and you don’t want to screw up your metabolism then I suggest you give these programs a try.

I’ve now lost a little over ten pounds in the last month and pretty much reached my weight loss goal. I finally now feel “celebrity skinny” and I guess I just wanted to let people know that there are programs out there that work and not to give up trying to reach your weight loss goals. You can look as good as you want to. Below are the three that I recommend. I know that they were both having a Valentine’s Day special the last time I looked, so check them out today!

Good Luck!

Here are 3 programs I recommend:

Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle

Fat Loss ‘4′ Idiots

The Negative Calorie Diet
