Ahhhhhh.... I HAVE SLIPPED BACKWARDS. It just goes to show you how vigilence is so important...

I RESOLVE TO GET BACK ON TRACK.

If I think about how much better I feel already and how much mire energy I have it us a no brainer to keep working out hard. I cut my funger two days ago but I just need to wrap it up in water proof tape and do a big swim. Eat less and start keeping track too.
If you are working out you know you should keep a trend downward month to month. Weigh yourself weekly and motivate your self daily. Remember the eighty twenty rule. If you are eating and worjing out correctly 80% of the time you are doing FANTASTIC!!!
Thanks,

Gained a few beer and chicken wings

Argh. It doesnt take much ti put it back on. I HAVE HIT THE FIRST PLATEAU. N problem it is just a matter of keeping track of calories and not letting stupidness in food kreep in. Just because I have lost ten pounds. I THINK IT MAY BE A GOOD THING TO lose about ten pounds and then hover there for a few weeks. Then go back on losing another ten. So this is the new concerted effort to get down to 260 this next month or four weeks.
Thanks

Last week I didnt send a picture to the blog. Let us just say that the weight loss from to weeks ago was not a linear progression and I had to work extra hard rhis week swimming. This morning I was goin to walk but there was fog so I walked six mile in two hours around the 262' Loop in my driveway!

SWEET! It is working. Walking swimming and writing down my food.

Well. I have figured out what works for me. First of all I don't have to be obsesive on carbs. Just watch out not to go overboard on them. Workout in the morning before I eat some great big meal. And if I am a little bit hungry while working out then that is grear. I am trying to think of hunger as a positive while working out. Where else can my body get the energy from but fat if there us nothing to digest. It has to take it from my long term storage of energy and fat. So even if I eat later a bit too much it is still harder to convert it to fat. Walking seems to take it off faster than swimming and like swimming it is two things a net user of calories and keeps me from eating at the same time. Pkus I have more energy and oxigenating my system. Same with swimming.
It is working again. I HAVE LOST A SOLID TEN POUNDS OF FAT SO FAR. 12% of the way to Onesville.

Big Bones and 199 lbs is 23.8 BMI

Ideal Body Weight for a large framed person. I AM, I have always been and always will be. So when I talk to people and tell them how much I weigh, they are generally surprised by alot. If I ask someone to guess my weight, they are generally off by as much a 40 pounds. I do tell them, " Want your honest opinion and tell them I will not be offended if you say something too heavy so as to negate the niceness factor that most people embody.

Here is a great blog post for figureing out your correct BMI if you have a large frame.

It is one of the first that seems logical to me. About twenty years ago I got down to 188 and I felt great, I looked great, and I was at the top range for what was acceptable for a weight to height range for a job I was trying to get. Didn't get the job but I was on a starvation diet for 60 days and worked out like crazy all day other than college courses. It was brutal. I lost 35 pounds and not in a healthy way either. But I did it. You can too, but if you are like me you want to keep it off.

I reversed calculated my BMI at 199 pounds and it came up 23.8 at 199. That's doable and that seems healthy to me. So for a little while I thought it would be cool to tell people that I lost 100 pounds, but what the hell for?????? I want the health not the merit badge for weight loss. Once I lose it I want to keep it off and forget that part of that chapter of my life. Not wear it as a badge of honor. So the goal still remains 199 lbs. I am well on my way, I hope you follow along and join me.
