Day 118, 247 to go

On day 110, I weighed-in at 358.

I had gained 5 lbs that week.

Worst week ever.


Weigh-ed in today.

I'm 350 lbs.

I lost those 5 I'd gained and 3 more.

I've lost a total of 70 lbs now.


I went shopping for new clothes last weekend.

My jeans have gone down 3 sizes.

My shirts have dropped one size.

I love this!!


So I have 30 more lbs to lose to get to 100 lbs lost.

I'm thinking I can do 15 lbs per month fairly easily.

That will put me at 320 lbs at the end of February.

Then hopefully I'll be at around 275 when we go to Mexico in June for Juan's birthday!!

Day 108, 257 to go

100 lbs by mid-January might be a tougher than I thought.

Only lost 1 pound last week.

Total of 67 lost.

I weight 353 now.

33 lbs away from 100 lost.


I hope to get to 70 lbs lost by New Years.

Maybe 75 lbs.


Over the weekend, I hung out with some friends I hadn't seen since my birthday.

I've lost about 50 lbs since I'd seen them.

My friend's girlfriend kept calling me "skinny bitch" cause I looked so different to them.

Its cool to see that reaction from people I haven't seen in a while.

Day 100, 265 to go

100 days.

I didn't think I could last this long.


Weighed in on Friday.

Lost another 3 lbs for a total of 66 lbs lost.

I weigh 354 now.


I went to a high school alumni football game on Saturday.

Saw some friends and acquaintances that I haven't seen in a long time.

To them, I haven't lost any weight.

I actually gained about 100 lbs after high school.

To these old friends, I'm still about 40 lbs heavier than I was at graduation.

It was a nice mini-reunion.


My 10 year high school reunion is still 3 years away.

I hope to be around 200 lbs by then.

I haven't weighed 200 lbs since junior high.


Gotta start small though.

Need to be at 320 or less by August 31, 2010.

I'm 34 lbs away from that.

Think I can make it?

Can I get to 300 by then?



Still can't believe its been 100 days already.

I wanna say thanks to Joe Breezy and Just Matt for their help.

I had no idea what I was doing when I set out to do this and these guys have shown me the way.

Also wanna thank my best friend Julie for her support.

She lives a couple hours away so we dont see each other that often.

But when we do, the look on her face when she sees me is one of the reasons I'm doing this.

I'm bettering (is that a word?) myself and I know it.

Day 92, 273 to go

It felt REALLY good to get back in the gym today.

I haven't gone in 2 weeks because I was sick.


Since I didn't weigh in on Friday, I got on the scale today.

Lost another 8 lbs for a total of 63 lbs lost.

I weigh 357 now.


I'm 37 lbs away from losing 100 lbs.

Today makes exactly 3 months that I've been doing this.

I'd love to lose that 37 by New Years but thats only 1 month.

Realistically, I could do it by mid January.

That would be 100 lbs lost in 5 months.


Then 100 more to go after that...

Day 87, 278 to go

I've been sick for like 2 weeks now.

I've heard you can lose a lot of weight when you're sick.

And I did.

I lost 9 lbs last week.

That put me at 55 lbs lost.

I'm at 365 lbs now.


I can't believe I got halfway to my goal so fast.

I did in less than 3 months, what I'd planned to do in 6 months.


The downside to being sick is not going to the gym.

I went on Friday and weighed in then tried to workout.

After two excercises, I almost passed out.

I started feeling better today so I hope I can get back into it next week.


So I have 45 lbs to go to get to my first goal.

Think I can do it by the end of February?

That would be 6 months from when I started, 3 months from now...

Day 79, 286 to go

I only lost HALF a pound last week.

So lame.


I haven't been eating cheat meals.

I've been eating very clean.

Breezy said I HAD to eat a cheat meal over the weekend.

So I had pizza on Sunday.


I've got a pretty bad flu that's got me all messed up.

I haven't been able to make it to the gym.

I went to the doctor's today.

When they weighed me, I was 372.5 lbs.

That's 1.5 lbs lost since Friday.

Hopefully I can add more to that by this Friday.

Day 72, 293 to go

I lost another 4.5 lbs last week!

I've lost 45.5 lbs in less than 3 months.

I expected to reach 50 lbs in 6th months.

I've done it in half the time.

I'll hit 50 lbs before Thanksgiving.

If I keep up at this pace, I'll lose 100 lbs by March... 6 months early.


I'm keeping up with my sobriety.

Haven't had a drink since Halloween night.

Won't drink again until New Years Eve.

This is gonna help me lose weight so much faster!


I've realized I need new clothes.

My belt needs ANOTHER hole.

My jeans fall straight down.

My shirts feel huge.

I'm gonna try to salvage some stuff from the back of my closet but I'll probably end up buying all new stuff.

Its a great problem to have.


I just thought of something.

If I can lose 50 lbs in 3 months, I could get 150-200 lbs lost by my next birthday.

Holy crap! That would be awesome.

One goal at a time though.

Get rid of this first 100 lbs... then we'll go from there.
