Hello Readers! I hope the new year has been treating you well as for me I am down…..ON MY WEIGHT!!! My last post was the beginning of November so since then I have we have Thanksgiving, Christmas & New Years. So my weight was 302 the day I last blogged and today I am 293! I did not get my goal of 276 but I am under 300 and I do not plan to see that number anytime soon. I lost a total of 83 LBS in one year. So how much do you think it would cost to lose the amount of weight I lost……….about $125 a month, I tell you this because I want you all to know that my effort is my own but I am being guided, I see my doctor every month the average you see there is the cost for all my blood work medication and doctors visits, almost anyone can do the diet I am doing and as log as you follow it you should lose weight as well. Up until now I have just been giving you my total weight loss I don’t remember telling you my Body Fat %. This number is not my BMI it is my body fat what percent of my body is FAT. When I started my Body Fat % was 53% and after everything I have done so far I am down to 42.8% that is right around 10% fat reduction. So as my buddy Shannon stated in a previous post New Year New Resolution, to recap my goal last year was to lose weight I did not define an exact amount but after a month I did and it was 100 LBS which I feel I came pretty close to, just because I failed does not mean I should give up, I am high and I always will, I make a big goal and add milestones to get there that way if I fail I can still see my progress and understand what happened and why it happened. If I would have set my goal to 50 LBS which is still an impressive amount of weight I would have short changed myself considering I lost 33 LBS more than that. OK now for my resolution. My new goal for the new year is to lose 32.8% of my body fat! I am no longer going to set a weight loss goal due to my new work out and diet plan my weight will no longer be accurate, this all also have me blogging more since I will be posting my results every month, even if I am getting on just to post my stats it will happen every month I promise, I know you are probably thinking to yourself “I will believe it when I see it,” but I am excited about my goal and I will post every month stay tuned.

I usually try to have some type of advice and/or something personal so here is what I have it is a combination of the 2, do not let stress cost you the ability to lose weight, I use to eat when I was stressed and I also use to blame not exercising on everything under the sun I am stressed, I want to hang out, I am tired, I just got off work, I work to hard……etc I am sure if I took 5 minutes I could have come up with a minimum of 50 more excuses they may not  make any sense but no excuse makes sense except for a few (example: a serious injury). I told you that to tell you this My dad has been in and out of the hospital since 11/1/2010 and 1/13/2011 in this time period my dad has had 2 surgeries, the first time was here in NC where I live I traveled from Charlotte to Winston-Salem several times during the month of November then the last time he was in the hospital it was in FL and it was on New Years Day I was not able to make it to FL until the following weekend which was 1/8/2011 he was released on 1/13/2011 after having surgery again, then yesterday 1/18/2011 @ 7:45 I get a phone call from my sister that my parents were involved in a car accident, they were hit in the back panel on the driver side causing them to 360. My parents are not old but they are not young they are both in there 60′s, they are doing  OK my mom is in pain but she is walking around, as for my dad he is still in the hos[ital they have him on a heart monitor I spoke to him yesterday and just like any dad would he said he is OK. After being out of the hospital for 5 days he is back in there again, my dad has spent 14 of 19 days in January in the hospital. As much emotional stress I am feeling and lack of sleep and driving that I have done since November I have still managed to lose 9 LBS in 2 1/2 months. So there really is almost no excuse to say ”I can’t lose weight.” Alright enough of my sad note I will now post my beginning stats.

I know the same number was put for Waist and Hips but I have no shape I am like a ruler the only curves I have are fat ones. Well like I said I will post my results in a month so we can see how much I have changed. Here’s to you and your family and to my new weight loss strategy. See you in 4 weeks Cheers!!!
