well hmmmm

ok so that semmester was a bust for weight loss.... I started out ok but never lost any weight I guess i need to re think some things. I will not quit...Im going to try again during the summer and I think im going to have some help this time....ok ok so in the words of Yoda "there is no try, there is only do or do not" or somthing close to that.

Its friday I got sick on Tuesday and I think I might be over it today(maybe). well anyway im hoping ti get things going again on Monday.. I did loose 3lbs this week .

Day one sucks

Ok so i got up at the crack of dawn, no i got up before the crack it was 5am to be honest. I went to the fridge and got a diet coke and a sausage biscuit and started my day. I can not forget about the monster that i must have in the mourning (don't judge i don't do coffee so much). Off to the gm at school i went, motivation was fairly high considering the time. It was just after six when i started my 30 minutes of cardio on the elliptical trainer. after i needed to stretch and let me tell ya old people don't stretch so good. after classes i went back to the gym for a chest and tri workout followed by another 30 minutes of cardio. Day one starting weight is 234.5lbs.

Time for a plan

It Saturday mourning and I need to make a plan of attack. I know the simple part of loosing weight I know I need to burn more calories than I take in a day....You ever notice that the expert on weight loss are all skinny people. I mean do i really want to pay Sven the Nordic god to help me loose weight..you know he has never had a fat roll in his life or maybe i should hire one of those girls with the yoga buts even when they aren't wearing yoga pants..we all have seen those girls who way like 100 lbs and bounce around like there full of helium. OK I'm done complaining about others...Back to the plan of action first thing i need to do is grocery shop, I must put food in the house that good for me and easy to throw together. We here at my house have really busy schedules and we tend to eat junk for saving time sake. I will need to get items i can easily divide into smaller meals and if possible cook a few days in advance. I never seem to have a problem going to the gym, I go and them eat junk so I'm going to have to work on that problem.. nothing like doing a 2 hours in the gym followed up by a large pizza. Starting Monday I will be in the gym at UMHB at 615 am every mourning Mon-Fri and will be there in the afternoon 3-4 days a week as schedule will allow me. I am going to lower my calorie intake to around 1500 with at least 5 small meals a day I will also up my water intake to a gallon a day( to flush my system). well i guess i write more tomorrow I have a lot of studying to do.

Face to face with the fat guy inside

Ok i dunno about anyone else but i never really think of myself as fat or obese. When i look down i see a chubby guy who still looks good for his age. I was wrong...very wrong and good thing i have a good wife cause she is as deluded as I was about my weight. Now I have always been a big guy never one that might be confused with skinny. Last year in Iraq I managed to get myself down to 198 lbs and i felt amazing at that weight. Right now i am 234 lbs and everything hurts when i move......I decided to loose weight again..yes that's right again ......I am a college student and a father and have chosen the end of this semester May 4Th as my goal date. I will go from my current 234 LBS to under 200 by then. I will update my blog every cpl of days with my progress and set backs...
