222 pounds

As a rule of thumb, weight loss is generally 75 percent diet and 25 percent exercise. I might walk 5+ miles a day but I need to work on cardio and weight resistance training. I have friends that work out like monsters but drink like little fish on the weekend. No different then when I do well 5 days a week and had "Ben and Jerry" weekends. The picture below is my screensaver on my phone. I made it to remind myself of the OMAD (One Meal A Day) approach i'm striving for. Really isn't that had, most days.

"I want to loose fat" has to become "I NEED to loose fat!".

It takes a life changing event to get most of us on track. I just got this bug up my butt that I needed to loose weight when I thought I broke my bathroom scale and then again when my blood pressure was boarder line going to keep me from getting my medical card renewed to drive my tractor trailer.  Over the last 2 1/2 years my need has turned into a N E E D!!!  I like it, how I feel, how I'm begging to look.

But "nothing tastes as good as being thin feels." I have...

Didn't loose this week. I know why. Late night shopping spree

  To many free days and meals. One HUGE carnivor's party. (Pig roast). and some suspected water regaining. Not a big issue. Changing back to a 3 day weekly workout with weights. Monday:  Chest, shoulders and tricepts. Tue: Legs Wed: back and biceps and forearms. This is really funny. I did a late night run to our local store. Usually it would be for something like this (up till a few years ago.) Warning:   FOOD "PORN" to fallow: My all time favorite cookies: they actually didn't stock them for several years and I would check to see if they where back in a few times a year. Even went to Ebay...so sad. But, I went to the grocery store late last night for THIS: I was going to do a calorie comparison, but even a 5 year old could tell beans beat cookies. Why the beans? I make a complex carb that I eat every morning, with my protein. It includes: Brown rice, Lentils and steamed mixed veggies. Now it includes beans! Great complex carbs, fiber, veggies and some...
