The Sky Taylor Story - How Sky Lost Over 100 Pounds

February - The Year of the Final Diet

After watching the people around me consumed heart-shaped boxes of delectable chocolates, I was momentarily snapped to my Diet Senses. Temptation didn't exist - I was determined to get all the weight off and even chocolate - rich, dark, creamy chocolate held no temptation for me. I was staring the Diet Devil in the face - head on, and I was winning, although I didn't realize at the time that my body was more determined than my current level of health.

But I did realize that I had to start feeding myself some food before I fell over dead, so I allowed myself to eat lunch. Not a big lunch - a small salad, a sandwich, or a bowl of soup.

How I made it through February without falling on the ground and sprouting up flowers, I'll never know.

My exercise routine was going full force now. I had increased my distance but now I felt comfortable walking rather than running.

Sometimes my dear old dad would come to my house and join me. We'd walk a two-mile lane, sometimes two times a day. I remember how proud he was of me, supporting me as best as he could. Only he had no idea of the limited diet I was consuming - or should I say 'not consuming'.

I continued to weigh every day. Some experts say to weigh only once per week - but that's for the birds. In fact, on some days I weighed several times throughout the day. What I discovered by studying the numbers assisted me in knowing how much weight I would lose in the forthcoming weeks and months ahead.

By the end of February, my scales appeared to be locked. I was so upset that I jumped up and down on them, which wasn't smart because I broke the darn things. Why were the numbers stuck on 195 pounds? I'd been there for about a month now. No fair!
