It seems that lot of political talk over the last month has included talk about "hitting the reset button." Whenever I heard that, I thought "I better start blogging again"
Well, here I am. And here I go again.
Since I started doing this 10 months ago my posts have been far from frequent, although it turns out a couple people were actually reading.
Just finished up a three day "quick start" from the weight loss program I did over four years ago - it was somewhat successful, I lost eight pounds in three days. Wahoo !!!
Now comes the harder part, keeping going. I could follow the program I did back then, but I'm not sure I have the discipline with so many other things going on. I've read quite a bit about good eating plans etc, and I'm a fan of the "Eat This, Not That" books. Plus, I want the whole family on board. Too often we go for the easy stuff, which is usually not as healthy. It's time to get off the couch, turn off the TV and work at it. Wife and oldest son are on board, younger son is like me - won't try things, gets stuck on certain foods.
I have to schedule a re-check with the doctor and if things aren't better, I know I will be put on some medication for cholesterol. I do NOT want that.
Monday morning I weighed in at 260 pounds.
My goal weight is 210-215. When I got there before I felt really good about myself.
By my birthday (April 30) I want to be at 230. For the 5K that I will run on July 3rd, I'll be at my goal weight. I might even talk about this on Facebook, just to build accountability.
And yes, I've been doing Zumba........
