Same ole same ole

Well I am in my same old grooves…

Work out about 4 times a week, then have a rockstar weekend… ugghhh WHY!

Jeremy had passed some info on to me and that is: “You can lose all your gains with one bad day on the weekend!” or his teacher taught him that or someone said it… it is totally true. I WORK MY ASS OFF IN THE GYM, ONLY TO GIVE IT ALL BACK!

Ughhh, well the last few weeks I have been boozing pretty heavily, that needs to stop! Arick dropped the news on me that I need to be out of the house by August 1st… my first thought is to move away from this partying ways… My answer was to search for apartments in Middleton.

Some just one room efficiency apartments, within walking distance to work.

I can walk every day, ride my bike to different places to get food and what not.  I can work out at the facility on campus or at work.

I am thinking of how I would design the pad, it would definitely have my weight bench and other fitness stuff in one corner, TV-Couch-Coffee Table-Recliner in the other corner… then have my bed over my desk in a loft kinda situation… we will see, maybe I aint even eligible for it.

Ile keep yah updated!

my workout partner

Well this weekend has been a little rough, my workout partner left the country!

Gina K has been the one that has been asking “Are yah going? Are yah going ???” That has been pretty cool. When I first started, I was like, hmmm I think I will go hopefully a couple times a week. Now when I leave for the day, everyday, I expect to go and work out!

UGhghhhhh This last weekend really really really pissed me off… Started Friday night, I was doing good and had a chicken wrap, and then I washed down quite a few beers for Brent’s going away party, then me and Jeremy had a cake eating contest… I had 4 pieces! WTF was I thinking???

Saturday morning, went to Mac and Don’s for breakfast burritos, then helped maynard move, had a couple brownies, then went to Kritz’s, he ordered Pizza Hut Tascani pasta, breadsticks, a couple beers, then I went to Teters, for a couple beers and burger and pasta, cheese, crackers and desert. Went to a movie and had some popcorn and soda. Went to Uno’s had appetizers and Pizza! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How could I do that to myself??? it is absolutely rediculous! I have to learn to say no!

First thing Sunday morning I was at snatch, had a really good workout, tonight I went to snatch… had a really good workout, tomorrow I expect to go to snatch… and take Wednesday off.

Thursday my workout partner is back and I have to fess up to what I ate this last weekend, I am not looking forward to that!

On a brighter side, everyone I saw Friday said I was looking better, firmer, toner… I had to tell them I hadn’t really lost any weight, they reminded me that Muscle weighs more than fat and that is probably why.

I told Kelly and Jon that my goal was to lose 30 lbs by their wedding, they were happy!

Terrible Weekend :(

Well I always knew that Drinking would be the death of making my goals. The drinking and the nonstop eating when I am drinking… ughhh

This last Friday was a Blooming Good time, everything was centered around FOOD and DRINKING … and I hosted it AAAGGHHH… I only had one plate of food, but I snacked constantly  Saturday I went to the Brewers game, HOTDOGS HOTDOGS HOTDOGS how many calories are in one of those??? Probably 1000 each. All of the drinks I had didnt help either.

Oh well last week I had been to Snatch Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. So those were the days that I could go.  Saturday there was a lot of walking around and my legs really ached today for that. Tonight I went to Snatch I worked out for an hour and a half… I was really winded during the Eliptical workout.

This week should be good for working out, I should be able to go every day after work… through Thursday. Friday I may not make it. I am Drinking for Brents going away party.

The one thing I am hoping is when I jump on the scale this week, my body has burned off everything that I gained this weekend. I dipped below 280 this week, so I am shooting for 270 by the end of the month… I hope I make it!

Ive noticed in pictures that I have taken this weekend, I definitely look better in my face and muscle tone is looking better. As always gotta work on this belly!!!

Badddd Bdog

Well, This last week I had been doing pretty good. I have been going with 6 meals of 300 calories or less. I had gotten through monday, tuesday, wednesday… I went to the gym everyday… then Thursday came, we went to Bostons for a co-workers last day… Well I had like 5 beers, some appetizers. Then afterward, got a call from the roommate, we headed to BW3’s for some more beers and winggies… ughhhh so that must have been at least 2000 calories in an evening

Then Friday, did good all day, skipped a workout, then went to friends place ordered a pizza… I pigged out on that too!

Saturday helped a friend move, pigged out and drank all day!

I see where I got so fat! I had/have no self control when it comes to eating with friends! I need to simply not answer my phone, Monday -Thursday this week! But UGHHHHhhh I am heading up fishing this weekend, soooo lots of beers lots of bad food… My goal is to hopefully not have a repeat of this last weekend!

I am hoping though to do a little weigh in on this thursday to see where my current weight stands and post some pics.

one month

Well it has been a month and I am happy to report that I have been regularly going to a gym.

I signed up for snap fitness and it is awesome!

I go there almost 3 times a week and once on the weekends, I am up to 40 minutes of cardio and hit the weight machines regularly.

Now my biggest issue,  working on my belly regularly and dieting.

This next week I am going to start the calorie counting and lots and lots of situps.

So here is my progress in pics… not much difference i dont think:

achange

287.4
wow
I vow that will be the last time that I tip the scale at that amount of weight!  

Ughhhhh I was so depressed last night! I think I tipped the scale once at 285, this is the fattest I have ever been in my life. I just ate an entire easter meal for a family!

I kept going up for the snacks, everything I would dip in the dips. Veggies, Cheeses, chips, pretzels, olives! Two – three – four trips to the kitchen.

Then Meal time, you gotta take one of everything, ham, venison, 3 kinds of taters, jellos, cheesy things. When did I get this fat, when did my stomach get this big to hold all this?

But I knew that I have been getting up there though, my knees have been hurting a lot lately, back hurts, walking out on the lake I got winded. Sometimes my heart skips, eyes twitch, joint aches, wrists at work feel carpal tunnely. My clothes don’t seem to fit. When I got out of highschool, I remember my work pants not fitting too well, so I got a larger size. Ive been getting larger sizes it seems since than! Im at a 42 – 44 !

Drinking a lot more lately, eating full size pizzas, 24 chicken wings… you name it!

Lately I have been asking for a life changing event… I think my first one is to lose 10 lbs a month for 6 months. This year I have 4 weddings to attend and I gotta, I have ta, get trimmed down, this is just absolutely rediculous!

So 10/1/2008 mark the date!
