Crappy Saturday...

It is just before 1am Sunday, but I am still reeling from a crappy Saturday. The UK Wildcats lost the bowl game and the basketball game. Then, worst of all, my hometown Indianapolis Colts got beat in the first round of the NFL playoffs. I am too wired, and pissed, to go to sleep. Oh well, always next season I guess.

I know it's been awhile since my last post, but no worries. I have no cheated and actually started another weigh in contest with Chloe Friday. We are gonna run it for 6 weeks and at the end of it we will probably extend it. I told her if she does well and keeps eating right/exercising she'd get some cash. So far she has worked out with her Just Dance Wii game (which is like an exercise workout) for about 2 hours a day...since before we started our weigh in contest. I am so proud that she is working hard to get in better shape. We are helping each other. Next month she is trying out for softball. Even if she doesn't make it (since she hasn't played since kindergarten Tee ball 7 years ago), I am proud of her for trying.

So you know I mentioned eating crappy foods over the holidays. Lots of fast food and candies. Well, weighed in on Wednesday and had a great surprise. I had lost 24 pounds and after all the bad food I had only gained 4 pounds back! So as of Wednesday the 5th I had lost 20 pounds in approximately 5 weeks. 4 pounds a week is okay with me. I have been back on it 100% since Tuesday the 4th. In April we are taking Mom back to Ohio to see her brothers. It will probably be the next time I see my Sister (been since Sept or Oct since seen them) and I want me and Chloe to be slimmed down by then. My goal is to have 40 more pounds off. That would put me around 343 pounds...down from 403 pounds on 11/29! That goal may fluctuate depending on how fast or slow my weight loss is going. My biggie goal for vacation in July is to weigh around 260 pounds. That would be about 120 pounds from now til then (about 20 pound a month average). I know that is a high goal to set. If I don't meet it, as long as I'm under 290 I will be happy. Once I get to 260 I will hopefully know what my true goal weight should be.

Thats enough for now. It's after 1am and I'm tired. More to come later...
