Back in the saddle again. Starting 10/27/09
 

Well, thanks to wise medical team I am starting Protein Power tomorrow. I have the original program (the one on TV with video tape and audio cassettes from 1999 or so...) and all the books.
Looking forward to the journey.

I think it's great that you've found medical support for this. Now just don't make it harder on yourself by going overboard today, the day before you begin. :)

Good luck! Isn't your goal weight a bit low???

Thank you for the well wishes. I have re-read the 1st two books and listened to the tape series and watched the video (from the 1999 seen-on-TV set of PP). I get it. Get enough protein; stay under 40 next carbs; eat healthy fats.
Day one a success.
I figure to chart it in my journal and update weekly or so in here.
I would like to lose say 30 pounds by year end. Possible.
Being handicapped, I do what exercise I can...and aim to increase my exercise weekly.
My weight scale being a bit "off"? Hmmm. I guess it must have something to do with old math. You know, abbacus, sliderule, factorals...all the fun stuff that does advanced math. All I want is for it to go down...in a reasonable length of time.

I took the liberty of reading a couple of hundred pages of info/shared wisdom over the past week in here. Found some good stuff.

So...day one complete nicely. Smile still firmly in place.
I wish you well.

Week one down: 8.2 pounds.
I am working earnestly into getting my poor version and Eades good version into the same hemisphere. :-)
Onward and downward.

Awesome loss!!!

Grats MisterE!

Tonight I finally popped over here to the PP area to see if anything was new and I saw your update MisterE. Fantastic! Keep at it! You're inspiring me to do a little rereading of my own now. I definitely think it helps to get the right frame of mind. BTW, have you read PPLP? Feel free to stop by my J if you reply and don't hear from me for awhile. I rarely get "out" of there and into the other sections of the site. But I'm so glad I did. I wish you well with this approach! I know it made a HUGE difference in my life!!

Yeah Mr. E!!!!

Welcome back. I always enjoyed your positive attitude and posts.
