The Slow Down...

Weight loss slowed down due to me eating out more and started drinking caffeine again. But I will be stopping that. I need to get back on track. I did lose 2 pounds this week which makes me 1 pound away from the 40 pound loss mark and being officially in the 260's. We will see next week.

Hello KY

Well on Friday I got back to KY about 7 in the morning. Since then I have eaten out about 4 times and today my parents are fixing a big meal. All this being said this morning weigh in I lost 2 pounds last week. Still good to see it go down a little.Tomorrow I am starting Insanity again so hopefully I will see me weight to continue to go down. One of my good friends weddings is in 3 weeks. Hope to lose about another 10 pounds by then which should be easy to accomplish.

Its Official!!!

Today as I stepped on the scale for my weekly weigh in I noticed something that made me almost jump for joy. That something was me realizing that I have officially lost over 30 pounds! 10 and 20 pounds was cool but now losing 30 shows that I am doing something right and I know that I will be able to continue.

Also from this weeks weigh in I learned that I need to eat more. I am sticking to my diet that I wrote out a couple weeks ago but due to me working out so much and running around I am losing weight really fast. Not that I should complain about that but it's better to lose weight slowly then really fast.

Well guys this last week I lost about 6 pounds. Which is why I wrote the little spill above about eating more. This next week will probably be a lower weight loss total because I am heading back to KY and will be eating out a few meals. Well everyone thanks for stopping by. I am officially starting Month 3 of my weight loss journey!

Bye Bye 300, 290, and 280's

Jacob beat me to posting this week. I am proud of him! Well last week i got sick which means I lost more weight then expected. I am sure that at the beginning of this week i probably put a few pounds back on due to eating nothing. Well i guess it's time to finally admit my original weight. I started this journey out at about 309 pounds which still kind of freaks me out to think of. But after this weeks weigh in I am down to 279.8 pounds. Good bye 300,290, and 280. I don't like you and don't want to see you ever again!! I am also less then a pound away from losing 30 pounds. Thus things are going well. Next week I move back to KY which will be the main challenge in weight loss but I'm not worried. Well we will see how next weeks weigh in goes. Stay tuned!!

5K

I ran in my first 5K this weekend and I have to say I have learned a lot about running a race.  It is not just about preparing but the actually running of the race.  It is all about pacing yourself and not letting the emotion of the race get in the way.  I had to learn that one the hard way.  I did finish the race but I had to walk part of the way. I finished with a time of 46:20.  I am now in the process of choosing my next race.  I think it might be the Roo Bear Run that benefits The Center for Courageous Kids in Glasgow, KY or the Blueberry Festival 5K.   I have also lost one lbs this week so that puts be back at 24 lbs total.  Brent you should be proud you did not have to remind me to post this time!

The Bump In The Road

Ok so I have hit a road block! The past two weeks I have stayed the same weight! This is really frustrating because since i have started this back at the beginning of Feb. I have always lost.  So I think this week I am going to change up my diet and cut back on some of the things that I used to be able to eat and still lose weight.  I am super excited that even though I have not lost any weight this past week I am still running in the 5K this Saturday!  I really need to buckle down and make this adventure worth the struggle!

Brent vs Weight Loss

I imagined this epic battle between myself and my body when I decided to finally get serious and lose weight but this epic battle has been nothing more then my body surrendering. It has not even put up a real fight. Kind of frustrating in my imagination but awesome in reality. I guess it does truly help that I do know how to get in shape and what to properly eat. I imagine that if I never did any athletics or worked out before this would be tough. I also destroyed most of mental blocks pretty quickly which was a big surprise because I expected mentally for this to be a little harder. But no need for me to complain about this being too easy because that is just dumb. Well this week went extra well and I noticed that clothes are fitting really well and my face has thinned out a lot. My new fb picture kind of shows that a little bit.

Also i have 3 weeks before I get back to KY and would love to lose about 6-8 more pounds before then. I guess I want to make sure that people notice a change which is prideful of me.(confessing sin) Well time to start the next week. Below I posted my weeks weight loss and total weight loss. Thanks for stopping by.
