8 hours standing with 100kg
My knees and feet hurts. I've been working all day long standing.
GOD it hurts!
I need to loose weight or I'll loose my knees and my ability to walk properly. Just woke up and couldn't barely walk properly.
Today is Saint Joseph's day and I made a promise that I will stay one year without fried potatoes. Also, I'm willing to try to cut off flour. I've been in absence of sugar for a month.
I'll be avoiding foods that hasn't nutricional value, just carbs and fat. I'm getting nothing good from those zero nutritional value things.
