Day 55 - 2 months - If that's what it takes

Except for 1 day, the end of month 2, week 8 but day 55. Finally over the last couple of weeks I have realised the ability to change is in my hands and what this means for me and my life is becoming very clear to me. This is not a diet, it NEVER has been. This is about a change in my life and the consequences are fundamental, important and worthwhile. I feel refreshed and renewed that I can and will achieve my goal.

These thoughts are spreading to all parts of my life, not just to my own physique. I am looking to make positive and life changing decisions that will benefit my wife, family and me.

This week's weight loss has been a modest 3.3lb, but this still very good. Firstly, this takes my total weight loss ver 50 pounds so far and puts my net weight to under 15 stone for the first time on over 15 years! Indeed a major milestone and a great boost to my confidence.

An apt piece of music from my favourite Beatle. A time of realisation has dawned on me and this sums it up well.


Song: If that what it takes
Artist : George Harrison
Album: Cloud nine
Year: 1987

And now it begins to shine
And you found the eyes to see
Each little drop at dawn of ev'ry day

Your smile, it comes back to me
And whatever you may say
Don't let it stop, never fade away

As we got to get out in this world together, oh
Doesn't really matter if we start to make some changes, oh

If that's what it takes (that's what it takes)
Then I've got to be strong (that's what it takes)
Don't want to be wrong
If that's what it takes
