Day 361, 4 to go

Slowly but surely.

Weighed in today at 333.

13 lbs away from my goal.

4 days left.


I've come to accept that I wont hit 100 lbs lost by August 31st.

Gonna try to get it by my birthday on September 11th.


Still haven't had any alcohol since my last blog on August 3rd.

Been to the gym almost every day.

Still being picky about what I eat and eating well.


I'm gonna take "after" pics next week.

I still have my "before" pics that Joe Breezy took the week I started working out.

I'll keep going and try to lose another 100 lbs and take pics then too.


I'm not giving up.

I'm not discouraged.

I can make a change.

I have made a change.

I will continue to change.


Just Matt and Breezy coined a term at the beginning of this that I love...

The NEW Tommy G.

I feel so much better.

I have so much more energy.

I look so much better.

Its like I am a new person.


I'll post another blog on the 31st to see exactly how far I got in the 1 year.

Day 338, 27 to go

I'm in the final month of my "100 Pounds in a Year" journey.

This isn't the happy blog post I was hoping to make at this point.


I got down to 326.

Only 6 lbs to my goal.

Then I stopped working out and eating bad and drinking a lot.


I weighed in today at 346.

26 lbs from my goal and 27 days to lose it.


I'm gonna stop drinking until my birthday next month.

I figure a month off from booze will help.

I'm also gonna stop eating out.

Making everything at home.

Maybe a little Subway here and there but nothing else.


I've found the motivation to go to the gym on my own.

That was something that I couldn't do a year ago.

That was something that I couldn't do a month ago.


I lost 94 lbs only to gain 20 of it back?

Bullshit.

I'm gonna get rid of these next 26 lbs by August 31st.


I just realized tomorrow is one year since my car accident.

That was the event that caused me to make this change.

The doctors weighed me at 420 lbs in the hospital.

Jeez... over 400 lbs. Thats ridiculous.


This time next year, I'm gonna say...

Jeez... over 300 lbs. Thats ridiculous.
