You can tell sometimes when I had an off week because I am not racing to blog or tell everyone anything.  And in hindsight it shouldn’t be this way or that bad.

I went up 3 pounds this week for some odd reason.  Which is weird cause I worked my ass off. So I was back at 302.3 yesterday morning.  So I was upset but I didn’t really have time to think about it  cause I had to get dressed and meet my mom and sister in Mays Landing NJ for a family matter.

So let me just recap what I can remember at this point.  I ate chicken taco meat for a few meals.  I am trying very hard to not eat after 7pm but it’s fucking hard with my lifestyle.  I need late night energy especially on the weekends. But I am going to do my best to eat dinner later this upcoming week.  I eat too early.  That I know.

I went to OTF 3 times this week as well as bootcamp 2x and did all my muscle groups with Doc in three days so I could come down to the shore.  I really watched my calories and thought I kicked ass.  The scale just didn’t show it.

But let me tell you about a few non-scale victories.  I went down the slide to my pool.  I have never gone down the slide to my pool.  I had to do it a few times over two days because I didn’t believe it myself.

I had a great time on the beach with my nieces.

I bought XL Hanes tagless underwear.  Colored.  9 pack at sams.  They fit awesome.  My junk is very happy.

I rode my bike for over 10 miles today in Wildwood and could have kept going if I didn’t have a show tonight as was afraid of my legs sucking.

I got into size 42 jeans the other day.  I was a 46 in June when I bought my last pair.  They have to be a loose fit or my legs and junk aren’t happy.  But they fit.

So am I going to cry over the 3 lbs?  No  But I have to get under it so I can go up in the helicopter next week.  Speaking of that.  Last night I was walking, trying to decide what to have for dinner on the boardwalk and I saw the prettiest rainbow.  And there were two things that I took a picture of it with. The picture on the right shows where the helicopter takes off from.  Pretty cool huh?  The other photo I’ll put below.

I posted a transformation Tuesday. And I wasn’t really ready for the 80 plus comments and 580 likes.  Holy crap. I know I have a lot of friends but it was overwhelming.  I was just adding photos to my Journey folder on Facebook.  I think sometimes photographs might be better than the sale.  A picture can’t lie.  It’s brutal most of the time. I have a great people all around me.  I think the photo shocked a lot of people.

So listen.  I am at the shore.  I am heading to play in AC in a few minutes.  On Monday, I’ll be up at 4:45am and heading to bootcamp.  I’ll go home and fuel up and then head to Docs.  We’ll come up with a game plan.  I’ll kick this shits ass this month.  I am not afraid.  I am not backing down.  I will continue.  This journey is for a lifetime.
