Well, it has been awhile since I wrote in my blog, but everything has been great. I'm currently where I left off last week at mile 16 on my trek to better health and eventually a marathon run, but I feel great. I decided to take a week off before school starts to recharge my batteries and try to see how much weight loss I could get in a week just by watching what I eat.
The results were very similar to the type of weight loss I have been seeing since I re-dedicated myself to getting in shape. However, today I weighed myself in at 207.8! That is the lowest I have been in probably four years! I feel great and I'm excited to keep this up by hitting the pavement, weights, books and work hard starting Monday. At my current rate of weight loss, I will reach my "Stage 1" goal of 195 by October 21st—well ahead of my personal December 30th (my birthday) goal date. That would be awesome. Who knows, if I kick it up a notch maybe I could break 185 before my birthday!
In general I am feeling so much stronger and better about myself. I can do pull-ups (well, one at a time) again which has been years for me, and my girlfriend constantly tells me how proud she is of the work I'm doing. My allergies haven't been the best over the past few days, but I'm trying to clear them up so the won't hinder my run for an actual 10 mile week next week.
That's all for now though! Hope you all are doing as well as I am!
