10 Weeks Down

The end of this first 12 week period is just around the corner. I have been so sick for the last week that I have only gotten in a couple of workouts. I am really hoping to hit these last two weeks pretty hard. I know I am going to stick to the program at least one more 12 week period, but I am going to add a 5k training program to the next 12 weeks that will culminate with a 5k in Memphis on Dec 2. I will continue to set the small goals like that until I reach my ultimate goal of being under 225 pounds. My first reward will be new shoes, that was what I told myslef I would get when I went under 35o. I hope to get them this weekend. Next will be a new road bike when I get under 300. Then under 250 I am hoping to get a new scale that measures body fat. I am going running today with Kim and look forward to continuing a healthy lifestyle.

Under 350

I have reached a milestone, I am officailly under 350 pounds. This may not seem like a big deal to some, but in less than 10 weeks I have lost a little over 30 pounds. This week I can see the end of my first 12 week section and I have missed more workouts this week than the whole time combined. I am sick!! I have been nauseated and had a horrible heahache and muscle pains. I went to the doctor and he gave me some medicine and just said to get plenty of rest and fluids. I Got my workout in on Monday, but have missed Tuesday and today. I hope to be back at it on Thursday. With any luck I will still lose some weight this week. I want to finish these last couple of weeks strong and then springboard into another 12 week program the first 8 of which I will also be doing a 5K training program to run on DEC 3, in Memphis. I will give out more details as I know them.
