In a Holding Pattern !

January 12, 2011                                                                      175.75 lbs

I know I can chisel away some more weight as my my body is getting toner.  I am starting to focus on my abs and incorporating light weights into my daily exercise regimen.  Truth be told, I am doing a little cheating with the diet or more accurately, a lifestyle of  health and well being.  Effective immediately, I am back into gear and will focus.  The results should be apparent shortly.  Stay tuned....

This blog is really for me as it enables me to truly observe and report.  Great tool !

It's A Very Very Special Day - Initial Goal is Met - 30 lbs GONE !!!!!!!

January 7, 2011                                                175.5 lbs

 
It has been a wonderful journey thus far.  Losing 30 lbs in a healthy manner is a simply "delicious" feeling.  I have more energy, my mind is clear, my body is trim and I have increased self-esteem.  As a true Type "A" personality, I have established a new goal to drop an additional ten pounds to achieve the "look and feel" which will complete the "transformation."  Then, it will be a matter of maintaining this weight through the continuation of my new healthy diet and lifestyle.


  • I need to thank Sari Dennis for all of the assistance she has afforded me through this process.  Her link is www.mywellnesscounts.com 
  • I need to thank my wife Wendy for her support and healthy cooking.  
  • I need to thank all my friends and supporters because without "you," it does not have as much meaning! Peace out! ( I feel like a famous athlete or artist accepting an award !)
  • And most important,  I need to thank Gd for His support and courage in achieving this milestone.
Keep following me through this journey.  The last ten pounds will take some time and lots of effort but I am totally committed to achieving this wonderful new goal !


To all of us..... Good Health !

January 6, 2011 176.25 lbs

Only 3/4 of a pound to achieve initial goal of 30 lbs.  Then, the REAL WORK starts.....The remaining ten lbs.  I am psychologically gearing myself up for this as I know this will be a difficult trek but well worth it !

Wish me good health, increased energy, peace and fitness!

Chiseling away......

Yikes ! 180.25 lbs !!!

January 2, 2011                                                Weight: 180.25 lbs

Well, blogs need to be honest so let me share with you what happened.  We went to Florida for a week's vacation and I cheated substantially from my healthy diet.  What did I consume?  Some wine, some mixed drinks, some processed food, some chips, a few goodies and now you have the picture !  On the plus side, I cycled 125 miles and speed walked.

The important lesson to share with you (and myself) is that 85% of weight maintenance is diet and the balance is exercise.


So, now I will be VERY careful for the next few weeks and get those few pounds back off and continue my goal to be trim and healthy !!!

Happy and Healthy New Year to everyone!
