Weigh In

Well, I gained weight this week. Just goes to show you never know what your body is going to do. I ran 6 out of 7 days and still gained weight. If there is one thing I know is when working out you will have peaks and valleys at the start. It takes a few weeks for you body to adjust and during this time is when most people give up. I plan to "run" on with my workouts, and hopefully I will have better news next week.

Job

For a while now I have been going back and froth with my level of job satisfaction. Things will go good for a while and then I have times I wish I could just walkout and never go back. Today was a day I wish I could just walkout. I have prayed for a while now that this negative feeling would leave with no success. For about the same time I have been day dreaming of owning my own restaurant. Of course, my practical side kicks in and I know that I do not have the money for such a thing, especially with a baby on the way. To do such a thing right now would be major ciaos for all involved. I would have sell the house, my tuck, and move in with the in-laws just to be able to put paint of the walls. In other words I am feeling very trapped by my job, and money. Not sure I am brave enough to go into business for my self, and everyday I walk in to a classroom I feel like I like children less and less. Please pray for some guidance, and peace for me.

Those of you who know me have always known that my weight has been one of my biggest struggles in my life. I have never let my size get me too down and I have never really put my health at the forefront of my thinking. I have tried different diets and workouts throughout my life, but I have rarely given a %100 effort in taking care of myself. I have however realized a few things in the past years; diets really don’t work for me, I am tried of lifting weights, and I need accountability. So, since the first of January I have changed a few things; I have started looking at my calorie intake, no late night eating, walking/running or playing racket ball 5-6 times a week, and asked my wife to help hold me accountable. In the past two weeks I have lost 11 pounds. My current weight or my weight last Thursday is 274 lbs. In the past 5-10 years of my life my weight has been around 270 with some time spent in the 260’s and 250’s. I have always had a hard time breaking 250. My goal right now is 240. I am hoping that by writing about my progress I will give more thought to my weight lose and continue my weight lose.
