Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life.
I can’t believe it’s been about 15 days since my last post and I am sorry. But here I am with so much going on doing a check in. I wrote last time about being compliant and how it was important to the over all program. That’s been the hardest thing because you don’t really get a cheat anything. It’s cut and dry, you either were compliant and followed the food you were supposed to eat or you didn’t. So it sucks because I nailed it one week and the scale didn’t move. Then I was a little discouraged the following week and had to click “Non Compliant” and boom, I am down 6 pounds. Now being non compliant doesn’t mean I was a pig. It means that yesterday I just didn’t get enough food in me. I wasn’t hungry so I didn’t eat that much. That’s all really. But it was still non-compliant for sake of the program.
So let’s discuss and have a formal check in. Today’s weight was 318.3. Last weeks was 324.4 – So I am down 6.1 pounds since last week and officially under 320. My next goal is 8 pounds and getting under 310.
If you have been reading here for awhile. When I starting this blog it was to lose 100lbs. The starting weight was 411.7 – So I hit the 10 pounds loss marker and got under 300 for a little while but little by little my weight had creeped back to 340’s this past holiday season. And here I am.
I am down 8-10lbs and 3% body fat since I started my new programing and changed my workouts out. I think body composition is changing for the better too. I know my squats are deeper, legs are getting stronger and I am doing more. So I’ll be going harder in this direction. I am back in love with training body parts more than anything and glad to have that back in my routine. I need to extend a few of them in my own time since you can only do so much with the class. But I am sure the trainer will write something up for me if I ask. She’s knows her shit. And has just the perfect amount of understanding for my limitation and BRO to keep pushing me.
I do miss my friends at my other gyms but I am not gone forever… I will come visit. I am just doing my thing right now.
I kinda feel like we’ve all been there done that with me here. I am finding ways to enjoy life. I want to travel a little this year. I really want to go back to Universal. That Mummy ride and I have some unfinished business to take care of. I am the jack ass that will spend another $2,000 to go on a ride I chickened out on and now regret it. I am going to see a few more concerts this summer… Counting Crows and Matchbox Twenty, The Killers and Bleachers, The Hooters, Third Eye Blind…
I went to see Garth Brooks this week and he was just so damn awesome. I can’t believe it was 19 years since he was last in Philly and pure gold.
Here is a little video that I took.
So I am gonna sign off here. Thank you for reading and being a part of my team. It’s been over 3 years and the website still sees about 100 people stopping in a day and that’s not so bad when I don’t really promote it. It’s not for everyone and I never wanted it to be.
I’ll check in next week.
