Welcome 2010!

Yeah, I’m back…   After reading all the #10yearsago posts on twitter the other day, I was thinking what I was doing 10 years ago.  I could not remember what I was doing 10 years ago…  Was I in Florida?  After thinking about it for a minute or a day, I realized that 10 years ago was Y2K.  Who could forget that?  Waiting for every computer to fail, wide spread power outages, total chaos…   I spent that night at a friends house in Western, MA waiting for nothing to happen…

Then I was thinking about what I was like back then…  I had just lost about 70lbs and was full of confidence.  I lost a good deal of weight in a little over a year,  and ten years later it is all back plus some.  It is time to get serious about this.  I am starting all over Wednesday Weigh-in Week 1 this week!   Its time to get fit and meet the goals I have had for years!!!

Getting Back on the Wagon

I haven’t done much here mainly because I “fell off the wagon”.  Like most I start out strong and quickly fade.  The cold of winter kept me in for the most part and my healthy eating took the back burner… I have gained a lot of what I lost back (we will see how much at this Wednesday’s weight in).   I have a gym membership and need to get back in the habit of going after work. Warmer weather is here so I need to get out and hike and start riding my bike to work when the morning temperatures get in to the 30’s.  I have been kinda throwing around the idea of joining weight watchers and going to meetings.  I did it on-line a few years ago and did well…

So this is my reintroduction…  I’m back to try again…

Merry Christmas!

I hope you, your friends, and family have only the best holiday season!

It’s not to late…

You still have time to place an order from Amazon and get it time for Christmas. Tomorrow is the cutoff for 2 day shipping in most places, but they offer one day shipping too… So go ahead sit on that couch and do that last minute shopping, trust me you don’t want to go out to that shopping center it’s crazy out there…

Weekly Weigh-in

I managed to lose 1.5 pounds this week. I,ve been working a lot of hours and my eating has gone to shit. Oddly I was hoping for a gain this week, something small to shock me back in to eating the way I did in the start. I need to go back to salads for lunch and a light home cooked dinners. I guess as long as I am losing I am going something right, right?

Start weight – 298lbs
Current weight – 271lbs
Last weight – 272.5lbs
Lost this week – 1.5lbs
Total lost – 27lbs
