I’m not a writer so work through my rambles if you care to read 
Man, I thought I would never get serious about this weightloss and fitness journey. As much as I said I wanted it. I sure didn’t act like it. Making excuses, being lazy and just triflant if you ask me. But Last week it hit me hard. It was the fact that I realize how much I was letting my mind and thoughts get out of hand. I mean, I would eat like a pig and at the same time spend all kinds of money on diet products and diet plans, not bit more keeping true to them more than an, what a couple of hours? I think since the time I started on bodyspace I have actuall ate clean 4 days straight at the most maybe 3 times. So yeah I guess mentally I was fooling myself.
But Last Wednesday, I looked at the calendar. I looked that I had passed all the dates that I had set for my goals except one. The end of the year. I thought if I don’t start right this minute to really do this and go get it that I will go into the new year just as unhealthy and unfit as 2007. Plus, really knowing that I can do it since I had done it before. Plus spending money on a Personal Trainer and a Nutrition plan, I figure well I’d be a real fool to eat stupid now. I started out the first 2 weeks of training in that mindset and it quickly started to settle in. I saw a vision of my hard earned money being flushed right down the toilet, being torn in little pieces when I would workout and eat uncounted uncontrolled unhealthy calories the same day.
So I did it. I woke up Thursday Morning and stuck to the nutrition plan. I worked out with the trainer as well as at home or sometimes at the gym depending on how I felt and what atmosphere I wanted. This week I’m going to start Basketball at 6:00 a.m I love ball and I’m going to take advantage of the calories burned doing so.
I haven’t checked my bodyfat but I’m down 8lbs as of yesterday. All the carbs I was eating makes me believe alot of this was water because of water rention associated with high carb intake. I do know this. Water or not it was excess and I’m glad I am ‘REALLY’ on the right track. I know I wrote before that water loss was not big. But when you want to look defined jelly bellies and swollen puffy skin is is not condusive . I truly see I am determined, fighting my cravings, and disciplining myself. It’s so not easy which is why it probably took so long for me to get going again but now that I am I feel so so good. I mean I’m sore right now but I feel good knowing that my muscles are rebuilding to look better.
I’m a little anxious about the fatloss, but I keep looking at the calendar where I wrote weekly goals and as long as I stay within those numbers, I WILL SEE THE RESULTS. So December 22 people. That’s the day I take my last pic for this journey. That’s the day I will be satisfied that I transformed my body and unveiled my beauty. I have to take a pic today as my week one Pic. And a weekly pic there after. Let me for warn you. This pic is going to not be great since I gained weight since the last photos I posted. But who cares! I’m about to be on point FOR REAL.
I want to thank the following people for their encouragement. For checking in on me and motivating me. It made a big impact on me….really.
