Sixty Year Old Fat People?

My battle of the bulge is in full on retreat!

I am so hungry right now. I guess I’ll just have to get use to it. As I see it, I have two choices. I can either loose weight or die within the next ten years. Per one doctor, I’m already on borrowed time. According to another doctor anything after 55 will be lucky. He did say it is up to God though.

The first few months I was in the Philippines, I lost another 20 pounds. I was doing great until I got sick and stayed sick for a couple of months. But that was two months ago now and I’m still regaining the weight I lost. I have now gained it all back.

The first two months I was here, I was too broke to eat too much. :) Maybe I should wish for that again but I didn’t find that very much fun, so I think I’ll try to self control instead. I’m hungry now, so I must be doing okay with it, for now.

I realized my drinking milk instead of eating diet isn’t going to work here. My nonfat milk is full of calories. I’ve been drinking way too much of that to loose weight. For now, I’ll eat a bit more popcorn and just do without. I have no choice. It gets old to be hungry all the time.

I’ve been trying to eat fewer pork chops and more chicken. The pork chops I’ve been eating are so small, hard to believe they could make me fat. :) Especially since they are BBQ’d. I sure wish I had my Kroger’s super lean “ham” that I use to buy. Not going to find that here. It was cheap and cooked on my George Foreman grill made it really good for me. Even with cheese. :)

Only one thing to do, try again and be hungry. Did I mention I hate being hungry?
