How is the training journal working for you? Is it motivational for you?

Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing your life with us.

I jumped on the scale today and it read 248 pounds which means I lost 6 pounds this week. Whats more amazing is that I have lost 20 lbs in 3 weeks since I have made a minor change in my diet. Since I have started my diet I have now lost 45 pounds overall. Its funny that a month ago I was frustrated as all hell because I was struggling trying to lose weight, but now my confidence is at an all time high. I actually have to go to the store today and buy a new belt because the ones I have are all to… Continue

I Lost 4 Pounds!

So I jumped on the scale today and it read 264 which means that I lost 4 pounds this week. I am excited to say the least considering I have not lost this much weight since the first few weeks I started my weight loss plan. The only change I had made this week was the type of carbs that I had included in my meals. Usually I would eat things like toast for breakfast, wheat bread with sandwhiches, and wheat pasta or brown rice with my dinner. This week I had oatmeal for breakfast with my eggs, gril… Continue

Only 1 pound but I'll take it!

I jumped on the scale yesterday and found out I lost 1 pound. Normally that wouldn't be so great, but considering the circumstances I'll take it. This last week included New Years Eve and I'll admit I had some pizza and a few beers watching the ball drop. Most people gain weight during the holidays so I feel good that I was able to lose a couple pounds. Alright I'm done tooting my own horn, its back to business now. I want January to be a big month so for the first time I'm going to put a concre… Continue

I Gained 2 Pounds!

Well theres a first time for everything and my weight loss goals are not immune to this. Today I jumped on the scale and it read 270 pounds which means I gain 2 pounds. I'm not too disappointed because realistically I weighed in a few days after Thanksgiving so it doesn't suprise me. I mean obviously when you come to this type of a situation you have two options. You can quit because your frustrated or you can keep going. So tonight I'll be in the gym plugging away . One step backward, two steps… Continue

Sometimes I Need to Slow Down

After working out three days in a row with weights my body feels like a train wreck so I decided to take the night off from the gym. I should feel a little bad about it but I'm reasoning with myself that if I take the night off I will come back tommorow stronger and fresh. I did a leg workout on tuesday and I must have did it right because they are still sore today. So tonight my plan is simple. I'm going to eat a really heal… Continue

Oh, I wish I could run a healthy restaurant or food store selling healthy prepared goodies... but it takes a lot of money and a lot of effort to compete with big ones! ................ :(
