Wednesday, May 4, 2011

The day is current.

When I started 12 days ago I was over 250 pounds. This morning the scale said 239.4

I found out from Karen that I am actually doing a kind of aggressive program and that there are several levels.

You don't have to lose a pound a day. You can lose 5 pounds a month. The most important thing is that you stick with it, keep friends and family around who will support you and keep you accountable for yourself and your program, and set a goal. My goal is that I want to be under 200 and damn it its gonna happen.

Karen also mentioned that you have to be getting the proper sleep. If you are not sleeping right, your body never realizes that its in "shut down" mode and it never gets a chance to "reset" itself, namely your metabolism. You have to reset your body properly every night or you will not be successful. Thinking back through the last week, I have had some really good sleep.

So, shake for breakfast, and I'm off to work. Got a final exam today at 11. Karen made me my lunch shake and my tea and put my vitamins in my pocket. I am under 240 now for the first time in probably 8 months. Just gotta keep this forward momentum going.

One of my motivators is the name of this blog. I affectionately call myself a fat ass but I know that I am not. If I want to get rid of this moniker, I am gonna have to lose it!
