Try, Try Again!


Here we start again. "IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED, TRY,TRY AGAIN."

Well, it looks like the Easter 2010 date is not going to make it, I would have to lose just over 1 pound a day. Not a healthy idea, at least not for getting this to stay off. I actually had peaked at 277 a couple of weeks ago, but it was really mostly water weight.

I have been back in the pool this past week. I hurt my shoulder last summer raking leaves and it hasn't been right ever since last summer, until now. Let's get back at it.

As far as the Date when I am going to lose this weight... this is now to be determined. Thomas Edison found 1000 ways how NOT to make a light bulb, but when he got it to work it changed the world.

It feels like I have tried a 1000 ways to lose weight and have succeeded marginally, only to put it back on. Maybe I should try to put weight on and then I will succeed but then keep losing the weight! No, that is a defeatist attitude,

I DO NOT CONCEDE TO DEFEAT, I will get up and try again, it is the only way, unless I want to lay down and get to 300 pounds. I do not.

Thank you,

Onesville

I swam for one hour

I swam for one hour straight today. At a 65 Second 50 yard. That equals about 2500 yards. Gotta keep it up.

Back in the correct direction. I decided to watch what I was eating. But the real power is haing a food diary of sorts. I just saw something on tv that the people who kept a food diary were much more likely to be succesful in their efforts to lose weight. Also there is the old maxim of "anything measures improves."
Thanks Onesville

Back onto the lifestyle. I am realizing that my initial success and then going back up is really a necessity of a lifestyle change. I was so proud that i had lost the first ten pounds so easily. So when I get down to 260, 250, 240, OR 175 For that matter. I need to stay on track. Thanks.

Starting over. Ot at least I am heading the right direction. I will be on vacation in the coming week so I have to concentrate on staying away from carbs and walking swimming and actuvity to keep the matabolism going. Our local pool closes for the month of August for maintenance. So hopfully when I get back I can get back to swimming laps again. Swimming doesn't seem to take the weught off but it does help on endurance to do other things like crosstraining. Also helps to strengthen my core muscles doing kickboard training in the water.

Very Best,
Onesville

Starting over. It is so easy to slip back up to an old weight. I can see how the weight managemant will be harder when I get to my goal.
