i’m gross
About a year ago, I posted that I was upset because I had gained a few pounds and weighed 147 pounds. Today, I weigh 161 pounds.
I’m discouraged. I’m having a very hard time motivating myself.

I was going to post something last month, but noticed that in December of 2008 I only posted once, so I wanted to stay true to form for December of 2009.

Six months ago, I posted this … click me … which basically stated that I had reached my goal weight of 140 pounds. After that post I actually lost 3 more pounds, putting me at 137. Over the past 6 months I’ve more or less stayed right around 140 – 142 … not too bad for winter time. Lately, however, I’ve balooned back up to 147 pounds. This situation is unacceptable. Time to Re-implement my rules:
For the time being, I won’t try to limit how much I eat at my scheduled feeding times. If I start training for a 5k, the 2 rules above should be enough to start losing weight. I’ve chosen the 1st Annual 5k run/walk for C.O.P.S. to be my first race of the year. It’s May 9th down at the Corning Preserve – about 3 weeks away. My goal is to weigh 137 pounds on June 10th … one day before going on vacation to Florida.

I haven’t posted in 2 weeks. Mostly because I don’t really have anything new to share … but I figured I should say something.
I reached my weight watcher’s goal. On August 25th I weighed 160 pounds. This morning I weighed 140 pounds. So now I actually get some points back because I just want to maintain my weight rather than lose any more. I do feel like another 5 pounds is do-able, but I’m very happy with how I look at the moment, so I’m going with it.
Motivating myself to run is a bit more difficult now that it’s cold and dark, but I’m still running 3 times per week. 3 miles, 3 miles, 4 miles at the moment – but I’d like to extend that 4 mile run to 5 miles. I plan to run the “Turkey Trot” on Thanksgiving, and then no more 5K races until spring.

It’s a sad day at the Milo house. Both Jessamyn and are paying money to lose weight. The formula is so simple, burn more calories than you take in, but it seems we need help doing that. I just finished signing up for Weight Watchers for Men Online. Over the next 3 months, the goal is to go from my current 160 – down to 145. Hopefully, my 5K training is going to be a big help – but one week into my “official training” – I haven’t lost a single pound (actually gained 2 pounds). The website is giving me 28 points per day – should be pretty do-able … I’ll keep you posted.
