I actually got my ass in gear last night and started exercising. I knew that my body was telling me that I have been very abusive to it and I had better do something and fast. I got on the scale this morning so I can track my progress and I almost passed out! I am 6'1 and weigh 221! I have never been this heavy....ever! I almost shit when I saw what the scale was showing me. And I know what I have to do and now I that my motivation came screaming back to life I will do it. I have cut my gaming down to 2 rounds a night of CD4, I play 2 games then turn it off. Last night I did just that, popped in the movie Full Metal Jacket and brought out my Core ball. I did 3 rounds of exercising...Push ups 12 reps
Tricep extentions 15 rep with 25 lbs dumbell
Seated back row 12 reps with 25 lbs dumbell
Seat curl 12 reps with 25 lbs dumbell
Seat should press 12 reps with 25 lbs dumbell
Deep bend squats, no extra weight
I did that 3 times and called it quits. I know I could have done more but this is my first day back in almost 3 months. Tonight I am going to hop on my eliptical machine, not sure for how long I will aim for at least 10 minutes but will press for more. I do not want to become a fat body, but with the way i have been treating myself I am on the road to doughboy!
It is frustration to know that if I never stopped I would be well beyond my goal but the fact is I did. And now I have to start over....again. I have started over so many time it makes me want to punch myself in the nuts. But I guess starting over is better than just giving up and never trying. I have read many come back stories at this site I used to use to help me keep in shape this past summer. I think my profile might still be there, I plan on going there later to night and taking a look. If it is or even if it isnt I am going to start that up again. Another distraction from work but at least it is for a good cause......my vanity and health. I mean I am glad it is getting cold and that wearing big cloths is the style. I would not take my shirt off outside my house at this time. I am going hardcore here, all the junk food is gone. No more beer, if I do drink it will be straight hard liquor. Even though that really should be cut out as well, we'll see on that one lol.
I have all the tools to build an awesome body now all I have to do is dust them off and get back on. Because we all know summer is only 5 months away. That is enough time to get into shape or to become one!
On a different note here are some facts that I have learned in the past 24 hours:
- My blog has suddenly been deemed 'adult' by my work filters....ha I rule!
- That back in my great gradmother's day they used bacon grease to cure lice....ewww!
- Companys make inferior products that are sold only to Walmart so they can sell them for cheap. While the same item sold at another store is made better. Another reason not to shop there.
- The car chase that flew by my house the other night started when 2 guys tried to rob some teens at gun point but failed when the clip feel out of the gun and the kids ran and told a cop. WTF stupid is as stupid does! Here is the full article~~>Elizabeth Car Chase<~~~I drive by the crash site almost everyday on my way home. It actually ened a block from where our babysitter lives.
- We told our 5 year old not to feed the fish because the last time he did he dumped way too much in the tank. And we told him that could kill them. This morning he asked to me to feed them just enough so they wont die and get X's on their eyes! I tried not to laugh because he was dead serious but that is some funny shit right there!
- And lastley I learned that it is humanly possible to get 2 potatoes and a jar of jelly up your ass....dont ask but I did see the xrays and hospital pictures. I love the internet!
- I have started it up again~~~~> My workout Blog!

Alright, Alright. I guess nobody likes to do these things alone.
I will workout with you. I have those damn bowflex dumbbells and a swiss ball. I will do a little bit of a warm-up tonight. I OFFICIALLY start on Monday.
I will have to head out and buy a scale though. So I guess I will be winning Walmart Bingo tonight!
I will post my weight (to you) I'm not ashamed...of course, that's cause I don't know how much I actually weigh, I think if I knew...I'd be ashamed then.
Dude, you are really not that heavy for your height! Isn't that average?! I am going to be super brave and admit I now weigh 160 and I'm 5'10". I think 170 is the max weight for my height as a woman. I'm closer to the verge than I have ever been. Marriage! If it weren't for marriage I'd be 140 still! And have an ass without cellulite. But as Chris says, he paid good money for that ass!
Is a core ball the same thing as a sex ball? Because...those things are...well...pretty effin awesome! Maybe they're SUPPOSED to be used for exercise and I just haven't...hmmmm....IDK?
I need to get back on my treadmill kick, but, goodness, it's so nice to check emails in the morning instead of running, why can't I run AND check emails...or maybe I can, I'll think about that one...maybe I can come up with a plan!
Something else you can add to your list of things you learned today...
Vicks Vapor Rub cures crabs in less than 24 hours...
Sheila: I will be posting my weight weekly. Dont be ashamed, hell i like women round. Just most women dont like being round.
Becky: Good man you have there! But according to the BMI I should be around 175!!!!!
Savanna: stop giving me ideas....oh wait forget that keep it up, I know I will ;-)
And if I ever go to japan I will keep that in mind!
You have the tools and the verandah over the toolshed.
I've never been one for exercise, my heavy smoking sort of hinders most movement for me. Smoking keeps me thin though, so win win I suppose.
I don't know about you, but the cold weather has really screwed with my getting to the gym. It's hard to go at 5:30 am when you have to thaw your vehicle for 15 minutes before you can see to drive!
Over the summer I had gone from 167 down to 146... and now I see myself creeping back up...150 last time I looked (and I'm scared to look anymore!) So if you're going to commit to getting back on the bandwagon, I will try to join you! It IS hard to do it alone! Good Luck!
