ALOT OF WORK AHEAD

ALOT OF WORK AHEAD

“BOO!”

The start of something
maybe-I-can-lose-10-pounds-like-this

It was August 27, 2012 and I just cut my hair completely off. This was no big deal; I always chop it off every three months or so. But, this time it was different. Before I would cut it off because I was too hot or because I hated combing it. Today I am cutting it off to represent a changing in my life. “I am letting it grow.” Possibly forever until I die. Who knows? I had weighted in at 253 lbs in that picture.

 

THE CHANGE

Something is changing in me. My other half calls it menopause or an old mans weird wiring’s (she does that offenly); but I know it is something else. Something with a meaning to my life that I just can’t grasp as of yet. Perhaps I am simply tried of her calling me names like “the Buddha” or “fatso”? Who knows, but maybe it is or maybe I have other unexplained plans.

The picture above was taken in January 27, 2013. I have lost 33 pounds with out trying or doing exercises. I tend to walk through the course of my work day for three miles easily. I have cut down on eating too much empty calories like sweets and tortillas.

As of August 12, 2013 my stats were:

  • 212.4 pounds
  • body fat mass = 60.91 pounds or 21.7 % body fat
  • 5’7″ height
  • 46 years
  • 38″ waist circumference

 

TIME

Today’s date is May 7, 2014 and time has flown by. I know the things I want to accomplish before I die. I want to get trim and in shape. I want to have a V shape with a six pack to show for my hard work, but I do not want to lose any muscle, if I have any. LOL.

I want to remove my debt, see the seven wonders of the world, save money for my little girl to go to college, and I want to visit my little brother in Japan, and I want to climb Mount Everest. Okay-okay…maybe not climb Mount Everest!

Today I am sitting in at 202 pounds and I have been pumping a little iron. I haven’t gotten serious yet; I am just beginning to wake up. I am still been called the Buddha, but that does not bother me anymore.

Time to speed up ahead of my game! Hope to hear words of encouragement, I always hear them from my little girl. There is a charge in the air and its positivo! Despite the latest in happenings from getting a new job, losing my Mother in Law, and other things; I feel the winds of change and the heavy clouds opening to reveal rays of light. Thanks in advance!
