Another long time between posts

Well, since last time I posted, my new elliptical that I bought used on Craigslist died, so I joined a gym. Planet Fitness to be exact. $1 to join and $10 per month! If you have one close, I highly recommend them! I'll post soon with scale pics, but for now I'm still 307. At least I havent gained.Time to get serious again.

Holy crap it's been awhile

And yet I'm still working out and eating pretty good. I only really took off the week my dad died, and it was just because I was so busy planning his stuff and hanging out with family.
The contest was over on 6-17 and I weighed in at 307.0. Not too bad for not working out a week prior. I suspect if I didnt have 2 deaths in my family during the contest I would have reached my goal to be under 300.
Even with the contest over, I'm not stopping. I still have a long way to go to get to my final goal. Hopefully I'll be better about posting and putting up pics of my weigh ins. Until the next post, peace out yo

Finally back in the swing of things...

Back from my Granny's funeral in Tn and back at work with a full work week. I know I've been MIA, but rest assured I'm here and have been working out. My days  have changed though, Monday - Friday now with Wednesday being my straight cardio day. I have found that being out of town on Wednesdays, its easier to do cardio. Every hotel has some sort of cardio machine, but not a whole lot of weight machines. Weigh in days are going to change too. Either Tuesdays or Fridays, not sure yet.

4-19-10 Weigh In

Well just as I suspected, up by 1.8 pounds. Not much to say other than I have to work harder.

First workout this week....

and I wonder why it is so much harder than the rest. I only had one day off this week and still, it was difficult. Oh well, it's in the books and ready to start another week.
I'm not looking forward to tomorrows weigh in. It's been a stressful week. My Granny died and just the few days leading up to it were a little difficult. She had brain cancer for the last 2 years and while we were all ready for her to go, it still was difficult. On top of that I was on call this past weekend and that means I usually dont make the best choices with food. I didnt go all out and eat like total crap, but I could have eaten better. This week doesnt look any better either. We are leaving Friday to go to Tn for my Granny's funeral. I'll still work out and eat the best I can, but you know how it is on the road.
Anyway, good or bad the scale pic will be up tomorrow.

4-12-10 Weigh In.....

Another good week! That makes a total of 12.8 pounds total lost since the end of February.

Last workout of the week thoughts.....

Even with my good weigh in on Monday, I have been very unmotivated this week. Maybe because my boss was off this week? Maybe because I got 2 new contracts this week? I have no idea. I do know that it trickled down to my workouts. Dont get me wrong, I did them anyway and did it hard to boot. It was just difficult to get started.
I guess that will be the case from time to time. One thing I did feel though t the end of every session this week was a huge sense of accomplishment!
Crazy the range of feelings and emotions this whole journey has brought out in my.
Now to my buddy JJ. Happy birthday and congrats on finishing up your MBA this week!

See ya'll Monday or maybe sooner
