Diary of a Dieter

Wow! Here I go!
I'm ready to start a better life.

After a painful divorce, I gained weight at a tremendous speed - 30 pounds in 3 months and 30 more in the next three years. I've tried all sorts of diets, but I can't seem to stick to them. Not that they're bad diets - I'm just lazy and I like fried pies.

It's time. I'm 46 years old and get winded jogging to the stop sign on my street (and I live on the corner).

On Monday, I start the Ideal Protien diet. Ever started a diet? You figure, I'll lose 4 pounds the first week, 2 pounds the second week, etc. You figure how long it's going to take. "By June I'll look great!" I've done it 100 times.

Of course, I've never made it public for all the world to see. So here I go for the 101st time. I have to do it now to avoid public humiliation.

Who knows - maybe someone else will be inspired to get healthy and make a better life too.

You ready? Let's go!
