New Motivation

I've joined a new weight loss contest at my work. We've made the stakes tangible with a $10 per week fee that gets waived if you are the weekly winner.

This is a good thing because I weighed in at 279.9. I'm up 35 pounds since April - and almost up to where I was seven years ago when I decided to get fit.

Wish me luck....

Best Diet Ever!

Finally! I found a diet that's not really a diet but more of a way of living. It's called Carb Back-Loading and I'm melting away pounds of fat and adding layers of muscle. I'm happy :)

We got a treadmill!

Having a treadmill has made walking/running so convenient. I get my workouts in while my youngest naps.

It is working

Thank you weight loss shakes (Slim Fast) for making a product that keeps me from binges.

Day Four:

I have to admit that I am embarrassed by these pics. Yet they serve as a motivator because I know that I can shed that belly and have a body that I can be proud of. All it will take is a little bit of hard work in the gym and at home and absolutely strict diet. No more cupcakes for me, or beer, or cereal, or fish sticks...

You get it right?

Intensity

No pic today.

Diet is looking spot on, however my wife is testing my resolve with these awesome cupcakes she gets from a local baker...

Excellent HIT session today. I'm exhausted and nauseous. Swollen too, let's not forget swollen. :p

Hungry!

No pic today, no "workout" either. However, I did push mow the lawn for an hour and changed the oil in the car, along with several other things.

***

Oatmeal for breakfast (no sugar) with coffee and creamer.

Tuna casserole for lunch, but I was hungry again an hour later so I had a balogna sandwich (on whole wheat).

Baked chicken breast and white rice for dinner.

Not sure what snack will be, but it will be healthy.
