What's up fellas!
We meet again. Things are still running pretty smooth with the work out. At this point, I am ONLY doing cardio, and I think I will continue to just do that for another week or maybe longer. Depending on the weight loss results that I get within the next 2 weigh ins. School has picked up and so has football so it continues to get interesting. I seem to have overcome the mental block of working out on Saturday and or Sunday- as it has been part of my routine now.
My current weight is now 260!!!!! a weight loss of 3 pounds this past week, hitting a mini goal of "just losing a pound" for this week and putting my total weight loss to date at 21lbs!
I am pretty excited because diet wise, I have not eliminated things, i have eaten LESS of them and at what times I eat them. I try not to have anything past 7pm if it's possible, and if it is, it's very light... Last night, I drank too. Although, I'm not drinking the 18 packs and 1/4 a bottle of Jack like I used to either. I just want to thank Brad, and the rest of you guys for creating and contributing to this blog because it seems to be a source of motivation for me to come here and post my progress. I know I will eventually hit a wall, and I feel like I have a good plan for when that will happen.

Week 3 Weigh-In
Hey fellas!
Things are still rolling along with this lifestyle change. I'm starting to get to the point where it's not as much of a PAIN IN THE ASS to workout. I "feel" lighter than I have been in the past. I'm sure that's more psychological than anything. Without further due, my current weight is:
263!!!! Down 3pounds from last week. Total weight loss of 18 pounds.
It's starting to plateau a little bit, however, I didn't eat as well as I could have last week. I went to a Mexican food restaurant last night. I plan on picking up my "pace" on the cardio and I am looking into adding some things to my workout to prevent from not losing weight during the next weigh-in. The goal, gentlemen is to loose SOME KIND of weight next week for the 1/28 weigh in. Wish me luck, and best of luck to you guys this week as well!

2nd Week Weigh In
Hey fellas!
Well, school started on Monday and we are in the midst of an ice storm. Those are the kind of things I had to overcome to work out and eat "right". In the past, I would have said screw it and either drank a case of beer, or just eat the shit out of stuff (sometimes both). This time no. I Ran everyday this week except for Tuesday. And my time is dropping for when I run the mile (9:48 don't laugh). Now down to business. My weigh in for this week:
Last week I weighed in at 273... Today, I weighed in at 266!!!
That's a loss of 7lbs! My total weight loss to date is 15 pounds.

1st Week Weigh-In
Alright guys,
I'm gonna attempt to way in every week, on SUNDAY. Blast me for gaining, praise me for losing if you so choose.
I started out weighing 281 on January 2nd, 2007. on Sunday, January 7th, my weight is.... (DRUM ROLL)....
273!! That is -8lbs in 6 days!
This is the most I have ever lost in one week before. I am assuming this is "water weight?" I have taken this workout stuff pretty seriously over the last week so hopefully that has alot to do with it lol. Either way, it's got me pretty fired up.
School starts back up on MOnday, and on Tuesday, I start coaching at my new school (off-season). This will test me on weather I can stick with this deal man. Particularly, in the areas of eating right and a FULL cardio workout. Best of luck to you guys this week!

The Starting Point
I think we need a thread/blog/sumthin about what our starting weight is, and what our goals are. so I'll start
on 1/2/07 I weighed 263.
short term goal of 250 by 2/10
medium term goal of 235 by 6/1
longer term goal of 220 by 1/1/08
permanent goal of not being a fat guy for the rest of my life and having diabetes or high cholesterol or whatever else it is fat guys get. also, I'd like to lose enough weight to make fun of fat people again.
how I plan to do it:
1. I've already cut out fast food. I gave up fast food on 8/13/06. after a night of heavy drinking, me and a buddy decided to stop at taco bell for lunch. this was the sunday that the NJ/PA taco bells decided to infect everyone with salmonella and e.coli. I'll take that as a sign to never have fast food again. I don't even like fast food. so it's not hard to give up. except for white castle. but there are no white castles within 100 miles of me. so I think we're safe. fuck it, I'm excluding white castle from my ban
2. work out more. which isn't saying much, so maybe I should make it "work out" I'll work out four days a week. I plan to do mostly cardio, because I do enough weight training carrying your asses on this blog and on tcg
3. sugary drinks. sodas and iced tea with sugar are out. I love soda. this is gonna be tough to give up.

The best Jerry, the best
I think the best think that can happen to you at the gym is getting a hamstring cramp.
Really, nothing says, I am a stallion and workout god, while you stand in agony looking like you are trying not to crap yourself after you've done some hamstring excercises.
Even better is when they happen in both legs!

1st morning of the Challenge
Okay,
this morning (at 4:45am) I had a cup of yogurt and a toasted bagel. I had water to drink with that. I plan on drinking atleast 96 fl oz of water through out today as well. And again, I'll workout for minutes of cardio. The cardio consists of a program on my treadmill which keeps my heart rate up between 116 and 136 through out the 40 minutes. Any other suggestions for cardio work outs?

First night back...
in the gym and it wasn't near as crowded as I expected. This week I'm mainly just using it do screw around on a few exercises and get my body used to the day in day out workout thing again. Actually did some cardio this evening too...big step for me.
Okay fat asses...
Start checkin' in with whatever you want to provide....weights, measurements, photos (just for you mj) and check back in as frequently as you'd like with progress, questions, or tips for what's working for you.
