Four weeks ago I did what I had been putting off for months. I began a weight loss plan. To be more specific, I joined eDiets.
Those who have seen me might be saying, "What for? You're not fat!" Well, it's true that when I started the program I was only about 25 pounds overweight, which doesn't seem like that much. But for me, those 25 pounds were really hurting my mobility. My knees and ankles were deteriorating, and I was still gaining. I knew if I didn't do something about it, eventually I would no longer be able to walk.
Today, I celebrate having lost my first ten pounds. I had no idea how easy it was going to be, and can't believe I put it off for so long! I'm still eating delicious food, and I'm not starving all day long. And, all of this was done with very little exercise - I swim when I can, and I take short walks, which is the most I can do with my joints in the condition they are. Of course, I'm not advocating that exercise isn't necessary for healthy weight loss. If you can exercise, all the better, and hopefully my joints will heal and I will be able to do more. But for those who can't exercise, it doesn't mean there's no hope. I'm doing it, with the help of eDiets, and so can you!
