Week 5:

I did better at getting to the gym this week! Yeah for that, but there wasn't much gain in the weight department. Since this week was the first week of school and our family is getting back into our daily routine I am going to take it as a positive.  It is amazing how having to get up 45 minutes earlier can really affect your morning.  It can be pretty rough getting up at 4:45 AM but I know I need to do it so I can get back to the house in time to get the family going.  My weight was still sitting at 289(ish) so I need there is still alot of work to be done.

Corn Fest Run

Today is the corn fest...where a bunch of people come to ship and buy a bunch of "crafty" stuff. The nice thing about it is I get to do my morning jog through downtown with no  traffic because the Main road is shut down. Two miles here I come. Oh and the scale said 289 not huge progress but movement in the right direction.

Week 3:

Another typical week in the life of a guy trying to lose some weight...the scale said I lost a pound but I am not sure...I am not going to argue with it and I will take what I can get.  I did not have a good week working out.  So I definitely need to do better with that next week.  I just learned that my gym got wifi so I am thinking about shutting down running for the year and focusing on the arc trainer and elliptical machine, they are inside and i'll have netflix...so might be win win.  Not sure yet.

Week 2:

So my second week is in the books and so far so good. The scale was at 290 so I was down another pound. This week was light on workouts but I had other cardiovascular activities including helping some family move. Today is several miles of walking in Lititiz at their yearly craft bonanza. So two weeks down and only a bunch more.

The ever popular Reboot.

For the last several months I have not been as diligent as I have in the past regarding my weight loss goals.  I have been working out and running rather consistently but I have been eating more then I should.  Thus I have not loss any weight since the beginning of June.
So I decided that I am going to treat my weight loss journey to the ever popular reboot.  I am going to forget what I have done in the past and consider this week as ground zero.  So at the beginning of the week I weighed in at 292 and this morning I weighed in at 291.  So in the course of a week I loss a pound.  It's a start.
