Day 15 -
I got home from Danville last night and was able to weigh myself.....205! I was very suprised to see that I had dropped that much weight. I had started two weeks ago at about 224, so I was following the diet and exercise fairly well ( I know I can do better), but even so I did not think I would have lost that much without the added cardio that I am able to get at the gym at lunch, or riding to/from work.
This morning I got up late and did not have time to make my eggs/breakfast and my bike had a flat so I took the train in because I had my weekly meeting with Walt. I did do cardio at lunch and we are supposed to play softball tonight if it does not rain. My goal is to be under 200 lbs by next week and never get above 200 lbs again!

Day 12 - June 23, 2008
Day 12
This weekend has been rough, I should actually say that it has not been so much rough as I have not done great in the diet while traveling. I think that the problem was boredom and that I had nothing to do in the Danville, so it resulted in eating. I kept up with the workouts, but I could have definitely done more cardio and hit the workouts harder.
I saw something on tv that had said that humans do not have to eat, which I know that they do but we definitely do not need to have pizza, candy, and the rest of the junk in our diet that we eat on a daily basis. The temptations are hard, but I need to focus on the end result and how I look and feel after I have eaten the junk. A I know that I eat simply out of boredom, because I am not hungry and I have CRAVINGS, not hunger.
Don't quit, lean from you mistakes and keep pushing through it and reach your goal.

June, 19 2009 - Day 9
Today is day 9 and things have been going well. I just completed Plyometrics and yesterday when I did my Chest and Back workout I was able to get a few more reps out of every exercise. The changes are not drastic, but I am still happy with the progess. I am down about 10 lbs, and have been losing steadily. I am not going to try to rush the results and lose the muscle that I am building in the progress.
Today I leave for Danville and I have plalnned out the workouts and meals so that I don't fail while I travel. I hope to be under 210 by the time I get back home. There have been timme where I have wanted to cheat on the diet, or drink over the weekend, but I have stayed strong and plan to go the distance.

Day 1 again, again!
June 11, 2008
I have my diet all set, P90X for my workout, and now it is just up to me. The change is going to take commitment and willpower but I have to do it for my health and for all of the years that I have said I was going to finally get healthy. The diet is going to be the key to my success. I have modified the P90X nutrution plan to fit the foods that I will eat, while still containing the proper number of calories and portions of all of the food groups.
This morning I woke up and had my mushroom, egg white, and low-fat mozzerella omellete. It is a lot to eat and I am hoping that getting in the first big meal of the day will keep me from having the typical cravings I get. Another big change is that I am drinking only water for the next 90 days!! You heard it right, no soda.
My workouts will be at night after work, so I should have no excuse of why I can not fit them in. If I go out of town I will ensure that I either bring the bands, or find a gym that I can go to in the area for the time I am out of town. I am setting myself up for sucess and that way I will definitely have it!
