Changes 3 days ago

Well I’m happy to be able to say that I see several changes already. My stomach’s become a lot flater and even a little more muscular already. My hips are (although only a little) smaller and I feel great.
It’s the first time in years that I feel each single muscle in my body. :)
I’ve stopped keeping such a close eye on my weight, I think it’s better for my progress when I only check like once a week. Every monday or so.
But I’m feeling better already and that was the ultimate goal after all.

Sore muscles, feeling superb 4 days ago

I’ve a light case of sore muscles, especially in my shoulders but it feels real good at the same time, I wouldn’t have thought that a work-out would be this good.
Although I’ve lost another pound during the last few days. My weight isn’t dropping rapidly anymore but that is okay especially seeing that muscle mass weights more anyway and I do not own a scale that shows my body fat percentage…

working hard on it 5 days ago

Well, I completed my first real work-out today. Last time was easy going next to this but I’m feeling damn good.
I’m not aching or anything but I FEEL my muscles and that’s a real good feeling.
Next work-out will be on wednesday hopefully.

When I checked the scales today I had already lost 10 pounds, so it’s another 10 I’m aiming for. I don’t think I’ll manage to get those down till the end of the year but who knows, right? I’d be happy if it was 16 pounds all in all by Dec. 31st. That’s an achievable goal! :)

Workout went well 1 week ago

I was at the gym today and worked out for the first time in years. It’s been a while since I last went there but I really want to keep this up. I felt much better already when I was through with my workout and I really had much fun. It shouldn’t be THAT hard for me to do this regularly. Besides my trainer is a real nice guy, too. He has a daughter who’s the same age as me so he knows what I want before I tell him even. :)

Been at the gym 1 week ago

Okay, so yesterday I went to the gym and finally had the guts to ask for a membership. The prices are pretty… high but it is the ONLY gym that’s situated in a reasonable distance to my home. Of course I do have my car but knowing me I’ll go once or twice, maybe thrice and then lose my interest when I’d first have to drive half an hour.
So, I’ve made up my mind and will indeed tomorrow go there once again and start with my training immediatly.
I want to go two or three times a week, gotta see how my work-schedule looks like. I’m feeling great about this and I’m happy I’ve finally reached this point.
It’s not that I’m rather unhappy with myself or my body but I know that I could be even more happy with it.

nowhere near done... 1 week ago

Well, I’m doing my best here, trying to excercise more (even though my job’s actually more than enough excercise) and I’m having only very small meals all over the day and one normal sized in the early evening. Right now I’ve lost something around 8 lbs but I’m aiming for a total of 20 to reach my goal.
I finally want to reach my ideal weight and this time I will. Even though christmas time’s coming, no one’s gonna fill me up with sweets this time.
Besides I want to get in a better shape anyway now that my work leaves me some privacy after two years of working 24/7 (or at least it felt like it).
Next week I’m gonna go get a trial gym membership. Maybe this works for me because I really hate to jog or do anything outside really besides bicycling and seeing that I do not have a bike this option isn’t even one.

LOL...reading this entry really depresses me. 3 weeks ago

The last time I went to the gym was months ago, and I have to be honest with myself and admit that this is not a goal which is very high on my priority list. I am really comfortable with my looks and I only want to lose weight for health reasons. My dad and granddad (on my father’s side) are diabetics. My mom and Aunt Nelly, who is my mother’s sister, have ARVD. My Aunt, who is now with the Lord, was not diagnosed with the disease until her autopsy was done by the LA County Coroners office. Since the disease is hereditary, the next of kin were placed in a battery of tests, and as it turned out, my mother has the disease as well. Needless to say that being overweight does not reduce my risk and of course magnifies my chances to have problems in the near future. I have been tested for both and so far I am okay, but I really need to take up this goal again…if anything, just as a precaution.

who doesn’t?



On my way 1 month ago

I want to fit well into my clothes again! They have become too tight. It would be nice to feel more comfortable wearing the things I used to wear.

I have lost several pounds dieting by counting calories. I gained some weight in the first place because I slowly but surely was eating a bit more, then a bit more, .... by realizing that I can actually eat whatever I want as long as I stay under my pre determined amount, it is a lot easier to make this transition. I do have days where I can eat what I want and I indulge any cravings I have been having then.
Previously I haven’t been able to lose a single pound but this is working for me:)
