I want to lose weight fast

I’m sure you’re wondering how come I’m suddenly thinking about losing weight fast. Well, the other day I found myself in a position to climb two flights of stairs, and it did me in. By the time I reached the top, I was perspiring profusely, wheezing, my skin was hot, and I felt terrible. I excused myself and went into the bathroom, splashed some cold water in my face, and looked up into the mirror, and then it hit me: I needed to lose weight. Fast.

In some ways, I feel like I’ve turned into my father. He was an enormously obese guy, with a wonderful sense of humor and a strong, pragmatic outlook on life. But boy, he was fat. And lately I’m becoming large also. Don’t misunderstand, I love my pops, but I really really really want to keep myself from reaching 250 pounds. Because once you reach a weight like that, there’s not really any way of turning back.

So I’ve been researching how to lose weight very fast. My wife wants to join me, telling me that she is also interested in losing weight, which I think will make it a lot easier to stick to whatever diet plan we end up with. There’s an almost unmanageable quantity of different opinions on weight loss out there.

I’ll keep you guys apprised of how well the plan to lose weight is going for us. I know weight loss will be difficult, but it’s what has to happen as far as I can see, so I’m really going to be working hard to figure out how to lose weight fast.
