At first I thought I could change for someone else, my ex namely. But later I decided it wasn't worth it because I wasn't into it. So when I looked at myself in the full length mirror naked yesterday and decided that I looked horrible, I knew right then and there this metamorphosis 'O Pec could work because I wanted it.

Monday I even am getting medicine from the Dr. to finally quit smoking as well. Look out world, here comes a new, improved Pec!

(on a side note, thanks Patsfan for giving me hope and Angel for giving me courage)

But for right now have anouther a smoke

Good for you sweets....and never works doing it for someone else. Always for you.....I am proud of you Mr.

Good for you Pec, you can do it my friend. Irad

Seeing myself naked is a great motivator to keep up the exercise and eating healthy.

Cheers brother

Best of lucky Peccy!

I've been struggling with some extra poundage that I want to get rid of and it's finally starting happen. Yesterday I HAD to wear a belt with some jeans that used to be very tight, progress will be slow but keep on truckin!

Also, I highly recommend Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution (book) It explains very scientifically why we should and shouldn't eat certain foods and has helped me tremendously.

I enjoy going to the gym, soon I will be falling in love with myself

Good for you Pec for the quitting smoking. If it's medicine then that's what it'll be. I have been smoke free for 5 days now (it's really OK, but I have my moments) and this time it's COLD TURKEY. good luck to you.

Good luck Peccy! And you are right.. you can and should only change for yourself and no one else! I've lost over 40 pounds in the past year and I didn't do it to look better for anyone else.. I did it for me!!
