Still plugging away. IT's a lifestyle, not a race.

Just a quick note to my 5 fans (including my mom). It's been a stalled month, but I was trying to build some more muscle and take it a bit lazy. It worked! Now I'm taking back the weekends and "watching", again. Been catching up on some podcasts and trying to help people in real life. But as I just learned, a good friend of mine that drives truck is starting to show high blood pressure and his doctor said " 30 pounds in 3 months." He listened to me blab on and then had to go and never called back. He wants to do it because he needs to do it, but he will buy a fitness program and not take care of the 80% of the program and thats diet and nutrition. He will exersice and hope to loose the weight, but he isn't sold on fat loss versus weight loss.
     Most people want to be thin TODAY and the scale is their personal god, they want it fast and simple. They want to do cardio and burn all those calories from foods they wont give up. (his are long island ice teas).  I'll hear from him in a month or so and I'm sure he'll be trying and then a month later I'll find out he's on a blood pressure med.  It's easy. Pop a pill and dont worry about the rest. Kinda sad. Food is just that ,FOOD.  Don't get me wrong, I LOVE TO EAT, but I like how I look and FEEL enough to not get to carried away. I didn't gain weight this month, but I did "only" loose 1 pound and gain about 1 in muscle.
