Personal Update

Well first of all I'd like to offer my most sincere apologies because it has been quite some time since I last posted. This one will be a short update, so nothing fancy!

As you well know, I have started dieting and excercising a bit more consistently and I have some good news and some bad news to report. The good news first of course:

My weight on:
June 26th, 2009 = 284 lbs.
July 6th, 2009 = 274 lbs.
July 22nd, 2009 = 272 lbs.
July 31st, 2009 = 267 lbs.

The bad news is that the week of August 3rd thru 9th was not a good week and I ended up gaining 2 lbs. My wife was not feeling well and with all kinds of other things going on I was only able to go to the gym one day that week. I am thankful that I only gained 2 lbs. though. I am going to weigh myself tomorrow again and hopefully I am down to 267 lbs. again since I have been hitting the gym every day since Sunday. I did weigh myself on Sunday and I was down to 268 lbs. again. On July 31st I had set myself a goal to be down to 265 lbs. by Friday August 14th and I don't know if I will make it. We'll see, right?

Overall, however, I am very satisfied with my progress considering I have lost 16 lbs. since June 26th. Awhile back I told myself I would try for 250 lbs. by my birthday in December and it looks like if I maintain my discipline I should be able to make that goal...maybe even more!

Well that is all for now...tomorrow I have set aside a couple of hours to focus on writing a review so I will, Lord willing, be able to post that tomorrow evening.

God bless!

Congratulations! Currently I am just trying to gain weight as SLOWLY as possible! So far I have only gained 5 pounds or so, but I still have a long way to go.
Keep up the good work and God Bless.
I hope Joy is feeling better. :)
