Weighing in...

Hello Fellow Bloggers...

Well, it has been quite a while since I blog on the topic that is my weight. I owe you all a sincere apology for not keeping to what I vowed to do. It all started when I had my rude awakening from school. I stopped going to the gym due to the fact that I was in school 24/7. I told myself I would continue to eat healthy but who was I kidding. The holidays rolled along and not only did I put on the 10 pounds I had lost but I also put on an additional 8 pounds. By January, I was weighing in at 248lbs. (Talk about taking 1 step forward and 2 steps back). Well, I worked hard on trying to get back to my previous success. I am currently weighing in at 227lbs. (my lowest weight since I started my weight loss journey...cue the woot woots). It's been a few weeks now since I dropped the "holiday weight" and I figured that before I continue, I should check in with my accountability partners which are you readers. I have found that the best way to keep myself disciplined is by keeping myself accountable to you guys. Now I won't be posting every week like I was before but I will still keep you all updated whenever I can. Here is my weight re-cap:

Starting Weight: 240
Goal Weight: 190
Current Weight: 227

Weekly Plan:
  • Monday: Eat Right - Gym 
  • Tuesday: Eat Right - Football 
  • Wednesday: Eat Right - Gym
  • Thursday: Eat Right - Football...and then watch LOST!
  • Friday: Eat Right 
  • Saturday: Eat Right 
  • Sunday: WHAT DIET?
I found that the thing that has made me lose the weight the most is staying active by either playing football or going to the gym. I am also drinking tons of water. 

Ok...so there it is. I will have my weight tracker posted on the sidebar on the left again. Thanks for all the support and if anyone wants to join along in the journey please by all means JOIN!

I totally hear ya with the weight loss thing, and am currently doing the same.

But I have noticed a maybe slight problem with your schedule, you aren't working out for 3 days straight, and one of those days is your pig out days. Um, I see that kinda being hard to do.

I don't let one day be an all out bad day. I let myself be bad once a day everyday. It helps me a ton, since I have weak will power with sweets.

Good luck God Bess, and see ya on the web scale. Peace brotha!!
