my previous post can be found here where I wanted to start a new year off the right way.
THEN I DID’NT DO SHIT!
I can remember a year ago being around 247 pounds and going into the winter it was creeping up and I went into the 250’s and into the 260’s
The reason was nutrition and food intake alone. I was some-what active but it was not eating enough calories and eating the wrong types at the wrong times. I’m a very happy person and very positive but looking back I’ve noticed I’m down in the dumps and not living the life I want to live. I got a tattoo with the word “enough” to try and make me focus.
it was hard. i went the other direction.
I signed up for a Gym membership at Fit-4-Less and I’ve even downloaded the “Lose It” app on my phone to track food intake and my smartwatch tracks other stuff with my body. 6 months ago you can see me tracking my food above. Honestly… I fell off that bandwagon that I started at the beginning of this year. Maybe lasted 7 weeks.
5 months ago I was 279… making a 20 pound gain in the last 6 months. I stopped tracking. WTF!
Since then… I have gone to the gym but not enough. Plus what you put into your “pie hole” is what’s important and will make it count.
In May… I went to play basketball and you just get such a wake up call. I kicked some ass on the court… but I could be so much better. I wanted to play half court and not full court. I could not run.
So now… back to the gym. tracking food. tracking progress. my roomie is doing the same so that is helpful too.
So here i will start again and to save you from the “before” photo it will post my measurements. I weigh myself at every gym visit and will post the result into my phone. I will share them here to be accountable.
