Default Back to Work Support

I am back to work in full uniform and I am tired of answering all the stupid questions that people ask. But most of all since I work nights I tend to find myself wanting to eat. Now I see where I gained all my weight(well part of it). I have been trying to fight the urge, I went and bought some apple sauce and rice cakes just to cure the crave when I get it. Most of the time its when I have nothing to do.

I really want to loose the weight and not mess up with my health doing something stupid but at times it gets harder and harder. I have spoken with my wife and she is behind me all the way along with my cousin, I think what I really need is to go back to the gym and hit the weights like I used to when I was wrestling. I know the moment I get back into that it will help me upstairs.
I mean at work I walk up and down the stairs just to get my wind going and to try to work in some form of cardo.

Well I just wanted to ramble about I am still adjusting to the new life I have entered and at times I still wonder why I did it to myself, or I wonder why did I let myself get like this to have to have the surgery. But thank god I have a strong will and mind and I think things through and talk about them and it helps.

Anywho thanks for listening, now its back to work enforcing New Yorks law and order lol.

Thumbs up Back to work

I just joined this forum tonight. I also work in lawenforcement in Ohio. I often laugh because when I weighed 298lbs. the inmates called me fat---, I now weigh 185lbs. It has been three years this July. I no longer answer questions from my co-workers, or the inmates. You can go back to work and do your job, but you have to make up your mind that you will keep the weight off. It is not easy but you can do it. I take apples, pears, and other fruits with me. DO NOT GIVE UP........

I chew tons of sugarfree gum....it keeps me from stuffing my mouth. Also try to remember to drink water or something sugarfree to actually determine whether you are truly hungry or not. Water loading is a good thing. I try to remember to do it...but sometimes it is hard if I don't have my Propel handy.

Another thing I do is buy sugarfree hard candy to suck on when I really am having a craving for sugar. Dunno...just throwing things out there that help me.
