W. was attacked by his sister on our vacation about his weight and so has decided to go on a diet. We went out yesterday and got him fruit and vegetables. He has chosen to eat less, one sandwich instead of two. He goes out to water the yard and has a one gallon jug he carries with water to each plant. He wants to lose 3 pounds a month, which should be doable as doctors advise no more than 1 pound a week. He may have to pick the exercise more as he loses some because he loves to eat. He tends to snack, so we got him tomatoes, melons, grapes, and cherries to eat instead of pretzels and candy bars. I also got squash as he loves to eat it.
I need to lose a couple of pounds as well but have not figured out what I can eat that won't hurt my stomach yet. I can eat some things one time but at other times the same item causes pain. I am still finding my way.
