I have to admit, I am quite discouraged. It’s not because I am not going to continue, but my crazy life has unfortunately made it very difficult this week to get workouts in. One on Monday and Wednesday, unable to go due to my work. This has got to change!! Tonight is group fitness at 7pm, so I am quite committed there. Since I have started this journey, I haven’t seen an upswing in weight, until today. I am going to make it, this plateau is going to pass, and I am going to somehow formulate my life to work in 5 meals a day, a gallon of water, and eating at the RIGHT TIME every day…

Weight — 288.6
Calories Yesterday — 1891 (1 calorie over my goal)
Exercise — Work in the brain, but not in the gym!!!

Ok Michael. Time to fess up to yourself and GET IT RIGHT. You haven’t been eating 5 meals a day, and on the times necessary. You haven’t been drinking your water. Your trainer told you to drink at least ONE GALLON a day. So, I am cleaned up a gallon water jug, just for you! It even says “Dad’s Water” on it. It’s time you get in shape boy, and get a move on!!

Weight – 287.4 (said 278.4 earlier, sorry.. Mistyped)
Yesterday’s calories – 1600 (So you would think I would be losing right? Well, get it right!!!)
Exercise – Cardio 25 mins

I am reminding myself of a big kid, who will do the right thing, so long as the teacher is watching. Turning their back I would do something that would get me into mischief. I don’t mind admitting it, that’s 1/2 the battle. Now, there’s work to be done.

Good morning everyone! Despite Papa Murphy’s pizza on Friday night, and Texas Roadhouse on Saturday night, and not eating that well yesterday I am happy to report that I am still on the losing side of weight loss.. WOW, is all I can say..

Weight: 287.4
Workout: Sat AM Strength Training (Hardest one yet, with the most achy muscles I have had in my entire life!!!)

Today I will be doing a intraval cardio workout for 30 mins, and tomorrow 20 mins of Cardio with 30 minutes strength training on the machines again. The pizza and the restaurants have to go for the most part if I want to make my goals! I go to Brownsville, TX this weekend for church services Sunday, I am going to have to watch my P’s and Q’s.. Pray for me!
