H2O

Yesterday when I said I did not get enough water in. Boy, did I mean it. My body is craving it today. No I did not eat anything salty but I am working on ounce 72 today.... yeah I said 72. Another good day and feeling pretty strong. Still have not done a damn thing about exercise. I can not for the life of me figure out why I do not want to get motivated enough to do so. One real motivation for losing weight slapped me in the face again today. Diabetes! No I do not have it nor do I ever want to get it . A very dear friend of mine, who had diabetes since he was a kid, died today after a long battle with complications from the disease. I will miss you Steve and my only regret is that I wish I could have been a better friend to you. You were truly one of the good guys.........

The good, the bad, and the loss of the ugly

The good is that it was almost 70 today and was great day to be out in the yard working, playing and just getting some fresh air. My wife and I had a great day getting lots of early spring cleaning done outside and capped off the day with grilling turkey burgers on the grill... Her own special mixture of turkey and seasoning and it was GREAT...... real great family time also.

The bad is that I did not write anything down that I ate until 9:00 pm tonight!!!!! That is a first in 37 days. I just was not near a computer today. Now i see why the paper method may have some benefits. Sitting down and recreating was difficult but I do not believe that I missed anything and am still within my points range except I did not get enough water in.

The loss of the ugly is that I measured again today and I have lost the following.

3 inches off of my chest!!!!!!!
2.75 inches off of my waist!!!!
.75 off of my arm!!!!!

That is a huge NSV for me

10%

10% of our time is up already? This is day 36. I can not believe that time is flying like it is. In 36 days I have learned a lot. I have learned how I eat, why I eat and how, over time, I will take this weight off. I am reminded every day my motiviation is counting on me, my family. I have lost 12.4 pounds. I will never see the 360s again and soon I will never see the 350s again. I have lost inches. I feel more comfortable in my clothes. I have to get exercise to be my way of life. That is the goal going into 20 %

1.4 MORE

1.4 more pounds are gone. May not sound like a lot. We have all been spoiled by the Biggest Loser Show. I, unfortunately, do not have the ability to work out 8 hours a day. Hell I can not seem to work out 10 minutes a day. I am going to change that this week... 1.4 pounds more that I will never see again....... Tomorrow is a mile stone Day 36..... 10% of the way through my journey.................

Weigh in Eve and I am not being creative

Ok so I have been writing a lot of stuff just to say i wrote on the blog today. I am going to do it again tonight. Tomorrow is a big weigh in. Trying for 2 losses in a row. Actually, I have lossed every week I just do not count the .2 lbs week........ This weekend we will get pictures and new measurments and a more fun blog to read.....

Work or Eat?

The amount of planning that it takes when I know I am going to have a long day at work is amazing. I hope that as I get use to my new life style that I am able to find a way to make better choices. The nice thing about WW is you can eat anything as long as you control portion and make good choices. Again, my problem is getting home at 8 or 9 at night and having 25 points left. So here again I hope I am not sabotaging myself by not getting all my food in........ weigh in in 2 days

Have to eat.

I know I have said this over and over but it amazes me how much you have to eat. What I mean is that here I am again at 9:30 with lots of points left. I came home starving and had 29 points left!!!!! Way to many. Means I did not eat enough this morning or at lunch. I have to find a solution to this problem.
