Sunday, November 22, 2008

Well another couple of weeks have passed.  I have continued on my regimen of working out and eating my mixture of yogurt and protein powder for breakfast and dinner.  I have dropped the morning workouts for the past 9 days, but continue to do a pretty intense evening workout mixed with both weights and cardio.  Since my last post, I have lost another 3.4 pounds.  I started this endeavor when I got on my scale and clocked in at an even 220.0 pounds.  As of this morning, I am an even 198.0 pounds, which is interesting because every time I weigh myself, it's never an even number.  Anyway, my total weight loss is now 22 pounds.  I think I've done this in about 6 weeks.  I still have 11 pounds to go, but I think I'm in control to achieve it.  It's too bad the holidays are right here, since they are such a time of temptation.  

So that's the diet.  A few other small things of note:

1.  I scraped my car last weekend when pulling out of my carport.  I'm sure it'll be a very expensive error.  =(  

2.  I bought my ticket to SLC for Christmas.  I arrive the same night as Brian, which is December 21.  I'm looking forward to being in Utah for both Thanksgiving and Christmas.  

3.  I can't wait for my vacation which starts Monday, December 8 and goes through January 5.  It will be great to once again take a good amount of time off of work.  I've been growing weary of this job as of late so it'll be a good time to recharge.

  1. Great job with the weight loss. I really need to jump on your bandwagon. I'm not really motivated to take James out when it snows here like it did today though.
    So, if you have a whole month off in December then why are you not staying a bit longer in Utah? Brian will be there till Jan. 6. You should extend.

  2. I was trying to do the math. I think that if you were at 220 and now at 189 you should have lost a whopping 31 pounds!!! Could that be right??? I am very proud of your effort to stay with it. You and Mary are inspirations in weight loss. Keep up the good work. Mom
    Can't wait until we all get together for the holidays.
