Hey all,
I'm still going strong on my diet. My brother's wedding was last weekend, so I wasn't too adherent to it. Still, I am down even more weight, and I'll continue to battle on. My weight was 321.7 lbs. I'm using my weight from Friday morning until I can get rid of most of the food and beer that I consumed. Everyday is a battle, but I'm still making healthy choices and exercising. Weights are still being lifted, but I need to stop drinking pop which has proven to be a weakness of mine. My method hasn't changed. I eat largely vegetables and try to consume milk and chicken for my protein. I cover four miles a day (it's mostly walking) which I hope to improve upon by increasing the distance and the amount that I run. I feel great and will keep you posted. If anyone has tips or questions, just make a comment. Thanks! Have a great day.

Health diary: post 1

Hey all,
I figured that it's time for me to document my progress with weight loss and healthy eating/living. I weighed myself for the first time in two months today. Honestly, I was apprehensive because I weighed 332 pounds the last time that I was weighed. I thought that it'd gone up since then, and I was worried that I'd step on the scale and weigh 34o or 350. However, when I finally did step on the scale, I weighed 324.5 pounds. My body fat percentage was high at 39%, but it was lower than what another scale had said last fall: 49%. I didn't lose that weight. Quite the contrary, that scale didn't measure what it said it did. This scale also provided me with the pounds of fat on my body: 128. It's a lot, but I'm ready and willing. Everyday, the battle becomes easier, and I'm finally winning the war. It's going to happen this time. I have no doubt.
Now, I still have to make some more calculations. First off, I would like to get down to somewhere between 205 and 215 pounds. Secondly, I should figure out at what weight will leave me with 23% body fat. According to my calculations, I need to lose another 54 pounds to achieve this goal. I would also have to lose 101 pounds to be under 10% body fat. I'm going to do it. For those who are interested, I'll write a post about this every week to keep you updated, and I will outline my process.
