alas.....the weekend has arrived,wow this work thing is a real pain in the BUTT:) honestly i don't think i would of been able to be so successful with FTS if i hadn't of been unemployed,while those were rough times, each and everyday that i go forward, i honestly believe that my life was forever changed by picking up FTS and embracing it the way i was able to do:) and if not for being unemployed i don't think that it would have happened...does that make sense??? i just cant fathom how fat and out of shape i was just over a year ago,and even though i am not that far removed from those times,it is impossible to imagine EVER being in that position again!!!!!!!!
    taking a moment to BEG all of you readers out there that may be struggling,or not embracing FTS wholeheartedly,to continue forward and live the FTS lifestyle for the rest of your lives:) it is truly a Godsent for me:)
    also: Doug Thank You man:)
                   it has proved true every word you said,while FTS can be a challenge,living the lifestyle has soooo many benefits,and you were also correct on the exercise part,while i very much enjoyed the exercise,life throws a wrench into things,and well i haven't had any time to committ to exercise in over a month:( and as sad as it is for me personally,i haven't suffered a single pound of weight gain:) all because i am eating low carb,it is super easy to not get fat AGAIN:) like you've said its not a diet:( its a lifestyle:) and so long as i live it,i will never have to stress getting FAT ever again:)
     so .....here's to being thin forever:) PeAcE OuT:)

Hi Gary! :)

It's so nice to hear that despite the trials of life and work, this lifestyle will keep you thin even without exercise!
Words like yours provide all the more reason why anyone needing to lose some weight (and keep it off) should embrace it.

God bless ya.
And I hope that your job demands ease up now and then so you can do what you enjoy a bit more!
What you do today is what matters!

Gary you are amazing!!  I hope everyone sees what you wrote.  I pray that BigJim could grasp hold to this lifestyle and hang on to it....for dear life!  (literally)  I was skeptical at first, and really just gave it a try for curiosity's sake because Donna (Owensmath) spoke so highly of the plan.  I'm a big girl, but when the scale went down TEN pounds the first week.....I was sold!!  ha ha  Now, it's just like second nature.  The FTS staples go into my grocery cart along with the regular food I buy for my family.  They won't eat this way.  However, it's SO worth it to me even having to cook separate for myself.   I am SICK of being fat and all the crap that goes along with it.....   Gary YOU are an inspiration to ALL of us!!!  Way to go DUDE!!!!!!  ;D

Hi Gary! :)

I hope you have MUCH more than a gazillion dollars.
Because, one should NEVER bet more than s/he can afford to lose.

Being around horses, I can tell you a that horse race is a horse race... It's ANY horse's race.
Those animals can surprise anyone!

Good luck, buddy! :)
What you do today is what matters!

At every one of our Memorial Day BBQs, we say a special prayer for beloved fallen and a prayer of thanksgiving for those still in service to our wonderful country BEFORE we stuff our faces.

And like you said, let not one of us forget... "buns & chips go straight to the hips"! ;)
Stock up on large lettuce leaves and low carb tortillas!
What you do today is what matters!
