Diary of an Older Fatman 3


      Current mood:cold

      Day 14

      Weight 318.2

      Measurements: Chest - 56in, Gut - 61in, Waist - 51.25in, R&L Arms - 19, 19.5, R&L Thigh - 33,34


Good morning, I weighed in today and it looks like I have lost 7.8 pounds granted first few weeks of any diet/lifestyle change is water weight but that is okay. I have also lost an inch in my chest and .75 inches in my waist. 

I should mention that my waist and Gut are two different things. The gut is obviously my stomach and the waist is the smaller part that my stomach hangs over. This is the part that I usually have my pants around. I dont pull my pants up over my stomach but I can't wait until i can. 

I have a buddy that I retro with regularly we talk about our weight loss challenges our learns, changes and I am brain farting on the third but we also talk about upcoming speedbumps in our road to success. Like this month at the end of this month we are going on vacation and that is not the easiest when trying to eat clean. So the plan is to eat clean up until then and then let loose for the week but not crazy like. 

I want to lose a lot of weight but I find that it is easier when you break your weight loss down into small goals. For example my current goal is 290 by July 20th. It is a little lofty but goals are meant to be reached for not always reached. (Definitely reach your goal, this is more reaching my goal in said time frame. I am hitting my goal either way). This is not my first rodeo I had lost 115lbs before and I did small weight loss goals. I set them up as badges Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, for every 25lbs lost I gain a badge. I am planning to do the same thing and for each goal reached I will be rewarding myself. Some goals are bigger than others my first 25 is a big one seeing as how I have been struggling just trying to get to this point so it is important for me to hit this goal.

Anyways gonna rap it up I am looking forward to my next weigh in. I am excited to see the new numbers.
