I need to drop 50 pounds . . . progress thread

[James]

I am here to announce the utter failure of my weight loss plan.

I wanted to try something novel, I skipped the low carb diet and went straight to the Christian Scientist approach to weight loss: Prayer and REflection.

I figure if God wants me to be in great shape, lean and muscular, He can Will me that way.

After all, they preach that no medicine or treatment is necessary. But after five weeks of continuing my old hedonistic lifestyle bolstered by dilligent prayer and reflection . . .

I have actually gotten into worst shape! Their method failed. I am glad I tried its magic on something realtively trivial like weight loss versus something important like cancer.

I'll be taking meds and using treatment and lifestyle changes from now on.

But this was a 5 week set back!

Damn you Christian Scientists, Damn you.
