Wecome To My Blog

I have a had lifetime weight problem. Being overweight is something that had affected me tremendously from the quiet devastation of going into a dressing room and not having clothes fit anymore to being ashamed of taking my shirt off at the pool or at the beach to having difficulty breathing and being tired easily. There are times when I have gotten into shape and lost tremendous amounts of weight because there was a significant event happening that inspired me to make a change. In 1999, I started a program where I lost 77 pounds because I did not want to start the new millenium in 200o overweight. In early 2007, I lost 83 pounds because I just turned 39 and wanted to be "forty and fabulous" when I turned 40 in 2008. The picture you see at the top of this page was when I was 180 pounds in February of 2008 when I reached by early goal weight. I was little too thin but I had the ab definition that I always wanted which was amazing since I started that program at an obese 260 pounds.

Now I started my new program at 219 pounds which is a 39 pound gain in weight just since last year. Really horrible. My goal is to hit between 180 and 185 pounds by Valentines Day in the new millenium of 2010. I want to the weight-loss to be a Valentines Day present for my wife, for me and for our marriage. I hope anyone reading this who has had a weight problemw will join me in an effort to go into the new millenium "fit and fabulous".

13th Day Into My Program

I started this program on December 1, 2009 with a start weight of 219 pounds. This is far from the 180 pounds I weighed when I got married in just June of last year which is when I took the photo on this page. I have been consistent with working out which so far is about 4 days of week and about 1.5 hrs to 2 hr workouts with a minimum of 30 minutes of cardio. The diet part is what is killing me. My step-daughter had her 6th birthday yesterday and I did eat cake and ice cream and I ate Roundtable pizza. It all looked so darned good.  I am seeing a million fast food ads and I want to try everything. I swear that every time I start a diet it seems the number of fast food commercials on tv tripples. I had two slices of left over pizza today. I know that proper diet is the most important part of a fitness program. You can work out all you want but if you don't have your diet straight, you are doomed. I have to keep this mind and live it. I have to remember that having six pack abs is more satisfying that a slice of pizza could ever be.
