I've seen Dr. Ian on television, I believe this challenge is great way to help motivate people and I'd like to share my story:
I consider the healthiest way to lose weight is through diet and exercise. After all, we consumed the food that made us heavy right? Then it should be our responsibility to correct our bad behavior and teach our bodies a healthier way of living. I started my journey in April 2006 at 297 lbs and I currently weigh 190. For the first six months I walked everyday and tracked every item I put into my mouth. After a while I started choosing healthier options on my own, my body started to crave healthier food, a healthier lifestyle and lots of daily activity. I have about 30 lbs left to lose before this part of my journey is over. I love my new wardrobe and I don't even mind my picture taken nowadays =) However, the best reward is the fact that I am now living every single day to the fullest, I know I can achieve anything I set my mind to and my size will no longer get in my way!!!
