Hey There!
No loss and no gain this week. I could have done better in the last 7 or so days, and in the interest in building myself up, I could have done way worse too.
This week I am planning to do some planning. I am going to plan some meals and plan some workouts. I am going to do things more purposefully than last week, which was my biggest problem of the week. Just not enough purposeful action.
Yesterday and today I got a good start to the week, at least as far as walking goes. The boys and I did a long walk yesterday and a long walk today. A "long" walk for me right now is anything that is hovering at about an hour.
I hope you have a great week and when I blog next week, I plan to have put up some good numbers.
Have a great week!

Day 86 of 103in365 *Round 3* 32/103
Hey There!
Quick update this week as I find myself under the weather. Whatever is going around, got its way around to me, but I think I am out the other side.
So I have dropped 7 more LBS in since I last posted on day 77!
Here is my thought for this week.
Make the time.
Sometimes it feels like we can't find the time to make progress on the goals that are most important to us. If we wait around for the time to magically present itself, we are going to be waiting around for a long time. A long time.
We need to MAKE the time. Can I wake up a little earlier? Is there something that I can cut out of my day that will free up some time to go for a walk, stop by the gym or plan some meals? (the answer to this question is almost certainly "Yes") Can I become a little less "busy" and make the time and ultimately really see some significant progress on my goals? (same as above, almost certainly "Yes")
Join me in prioritizing your goals this week and together let's MAKE the time!
Have a great week!

Day 77 of 103in365 *Round 3* 25/103
Hey There!
It's been awhile ... but I.m back!
I am back on the proverbial wagon once again (and last again BTW!)
This is Round 3 as it is the 3rd time I have started on this journey to lose 103 LBS in 365 days. I know I said this last time I restarted, but here it is again. This time feels different. Different than the last time it felt different even.
So here are the stats. On December 26, 2014 I weighed in at 320. That is Day 1 of the Round 3.
Now fast forward to today, Day 77, and I am down 25 LBS!
Good start but I still have 15 LBS to go to be at my lowest weight in this Journey Trilogy. At, or before, Day 365, I will weigh 217 or less. 213 would have been the end goal of Round 1 so I am thinking that I might set my sights on that eventually. For now however, I am going to get to at most 217 by Christmas!
As mentioned above, I am trying to put my finger on what feels so different this time from all the other times it has felt so different. I will attempt to figure it out and get it into words at some point, but for now I suppose I am just another year wiser and another year tireder of being overweight.
So here is the buzz at the school yard as to how I have lost the first 25. I have not had ANY soda since the Rose Bowl! (Which we won, thank-you very much! That is January 1st for those of you who are not College Football fans.) I have also not had fastfood since before that! So no soda and no fastfood helps to make Scuba shrink. Go figure. Stop the presses! Who would have thunk it?
I also have been walking a ton. I walk on many of my breaks at work and I walk with my boys several times a week. This has really helped motivate me to eat better since, as I have talked about before, I am someone that eats a lot better when I am exercising on the regular. I am just more invested in my health and don't want to negate the workout I already did or am going to do that day. I think many people are like me in the that way, so we just all need to get moving so that we have more motivation to eat a more healthy diet and eat healthier portions of that healthy diet. If you already do this, keep it up!
Well, that is all for today. I just wanted to let you know that I'm back and I'm not going to just drop of the face of the interwebs again this time. I am going to post every week for the rest of the year, at least, and I am going to finish my journey this time!
I AM GOING TO FINISH MY JOURNEY THIS TIME!
That felt good. Now I just need to keep putting my money where my mouth is, and I will. Oh yes, I will.
Have a great week!
