Alright - So yesterday was not the home run in the calories depot, but it wasnt awful either! The total for the day was 1850. So yes that is much more than I have been eating, but I did my best! We went to Panera Bread for dinner and I had a salad and soup - that would have been great and I would have been right on target with the calories, but then I had 2 big chunks of whole wheat bread... The two chunks were 360! So if you take away the bread I would have been at a solid 1490 - but I did eat the bread! Damn it! Oh well - I mowed a yard and that was brutal - it was super hot! I looked online and it says if you walk behind mow for 60 minutes you burn roughly 500 - 800 calories! So that is pretty kick ass!
Today when I get home I will be at 795 on calories! We are going to see a play tonight and will be catching dinner on the run - I think we are doing mexican. NO CHEESE OR RICE TONIGHT! I HATE EATING LOW CALORIES! I mean really - mexican without cheese is just unamerican! Oh well - I want to be healthier and smaller more! I will try to get like a fajita salad with salsa dressing and I will limit the number of chips I eat to a serving. I am going to do some checking on the internet to see just how many cals are in some of the typical mexican dishes. Till later my peeps!
This is a random blog about my issues with weight loss. I suck at it! I am trying to lose weight and be healthy. It seems so easy right??? Sometimes I ramble, sometimes I waste time, sometimes I am actually inspired and want to try harder! But mostly I just post about what I am doing and my current weight. Please read and tell me if you want me to write about something else! adios -

Tonight KS & I had a kick ass lower body and back workout. We freaking rocked it! Then we did some killer cardio on the elliptical. For dinner I mixed a can of salmon, a can of potatoes, and a can of carrots. All mixed up was 475 calories. Todays grand total.... 1445! Another rockin day of calories and working out! We are on track!
Lunch & breakfast are packed and ready to go - Tomorrows total so far is 797 - that includes two cups of coffee in the am. I am going to be so freaking skinny and healthy!

Great solid first day being back yesterday! I had some chicken sausage for dinner last night with a can of green beans and for a snack when I got home from work I had a granola bar. So for my grand total of calories yesterday.... 1380!!! Thats right folks! That is what I call a kick ass day of calories! And I wasn't too awful hungry! I was when I got home from work, but after dinner I wasn't stuffed I was just almost full but I drank a couple big glasses of no calorie lemonade and felt good! Oh I did have a few glugs of milk with my granola bar snack - so lets say I drank a 1/2 cup of skim - a cup of skim is 90 cals so I had a grand total of 1425! That is still kick ass!
Today I have had one cup of coffee and my morning shake so that is putting me at 195 right now. I think that I have packed myself 785 calories for breakfast and lunch today so lets hope I can keep it up! OH! KS and I had a great work out yesterday! Good strong upper body weight lifting day and we did 30 mins cardio - 15 on the treadmill walk/running & 15 on the elliptical. Burned 520 calories according to the machines plus all the weight lifting plus KS and I walked the dogs last night for 1.2 miles and played in the yard for a while! DAMN we are two healthy mofo's!
Wish me luck today! We leave for vacation on August 1st - So that is 10 weeks away 70 days. Over the next 70 days I will be below 300! It will be the first time since I started college!

Okay - Brutal - I don't even know where to begin... So I am starting fresh and using this to only list my calories and try to keep myself accountable.
This morning I had a shake and two cups of coffee for a grand total of calories = 210
For lunch I have a can of soup = 260 calories + apple 65 + granola bar 140 + grits 100.
By the time I get home I will have had 775 calories. My goal for dinner is to keep it around 725 - 800 so I can stay in the 1500 - 1600 total calories for the day. I will be kicking it into high gear and I will be loseing some serious weight!

Man I suck at blogging - this may be too much to handle... So here is what is going on:
We have to study an ass load of crap for a real estate exam Sunday - plus we have class all day Sat & Sun in Boone.
I am taking an online test for some work stuff and it is taking several hours to complete - So far I have put in about 4 hours... and I still have more to go...
KS is still taking her online Real Estate class from 9 - 11 at night for the rest of this week.
We are trying to keep up with exercising, our yard, dogs, house, etc...
SOOO... What does that mean? It means I did pretty good yesterday, then broke down and had a cheeseburger for dinner... I suck... When things calm down I am so going to lose an ass load of weight!

WOW! I am awful at this! Okay - I have had a couple rough days and on top of that my weight just seems to be stuck. SO! I am going to kick it tomorrow! This week I am only doing 1800 cals a day! THAT IS ALL! I know that is low, but I have got to do something to give myself a push. We may not be able to get to the gym much this week - we are super busy, but I am lowering the cals and this weight IS coming off!

Good evening all - I mowed my father-in-laws yard this evening for my cardio workout. KS and I had roast beef sandwiches for dinner. I had some rice to go along with it. I believe I am right at 2200 cals so far today. I am really wanting to eat something else... I have the munchies for some reason, but i am full and not hungry - i just like the process of eating I realize. It is a sickness for real. I like to chew and the taste and the satisfaction of swallowing. BUT i am going to drink a tall glass of water instead!
I am here! I am doing okay this week - Monday and Tuesday I kept it under 2500 cals and worked out hard both days! I am currently at 1200 for the day today and feeling good! I am going to mow some yard tonight so that will be my cardio. Adios my peeps - I kind of suck at this blogging thing... OH! I have some Poisson ivy on my arm and it is KILLING ME!!!!!

Good morning my public! Last night - we cranked it out! Great chest, shoulder, tricep, & ab workout! Then did some running, jogging, and walking intermixed. Pretty stinkin solid workout! Then for dinner some instant mashed potatoes (very low in calories) and some baked fish fillets! Pretty healthy dinner if I do say so myself. This morning I have had a meal shake and granola bar - right around 380 calories! I am losing some weight dammit! I will be svelte before you know it!

Holy Crap! I just realized I didn't post anything for yesterday! Okay - Total Calories for yesterday were just under 2500. I know! Pretty stinkin good! But no exercise yesterday... I know! Pretty stinkin bad... Oh well...
I have had 400 calories for breakfast this morning. I had a meal shake, granola bar, and glass of milk! There is a cup of coffee on my desk and half a bottle of water. I may have an estimate to go to at 11:00 in Morganton with my boss so if that is the case then I will probably eat out with him. We will just have to see! Tonight KSTS & I have upperbody and cardio. I will crank it out tonight! I am going to punish myself!

Dinner is done and today has been a good day! I had a granola bar when I came home from work then KSTS & I went to work out. Good lower body, back, and biceps day! Then 20 hard minutes on the elliptical! Dinner was some turkey and a can of new potatoes - total for the day... 2100 cals! Thats right! Kickin like van damn! I packed my breakfast and lunch for tomorrow - 1190 cals! That will leave plenty for the steak I have marinating for tomorrow night!
Good morning my peeps! Last night was a little off the wagon... Okay so I get home and KSTS and I goof off for a while then we decide to go by GNC before we go to the gym.... Well GNC ended up being a 30 minute adventure because the girl screwed up our bill (for the second time) and we were starving... So no gym, and Court Street Grill. I had a sub, fry's, and salad - it really wasn't too bad - between 1000 - 1250 calories! Then we stopped and got an ice cream cone... and not the 150 calorie one from mcdonalds. So last night was on off night. BUT! Today will be better! This morning my breakfast had 280 calories and I am quite full! I have a snack granola bar that has 130 calories I will eat sometime today. And my boss and I are going out to do some estimates so we will probably eat out - I will be a good boy! Wish me luck!

Good afternoon to all the masses of people who read this important news document at all hours! It is currently 1:20 and my lunch box is empty! I have had 1080 calories so far today! Tonight KS & I work out then off to eat some high calorie foods with M&D! I am thinking I will try a wrap tonight and maybe a salad! I will update you as to how kick ass our work out is!

Pretty productive day today! KSTS and I went to the gym and burned a lot of calories! Today was an upperbody day with the weights and then we alternated running and walking on the treadmill! I burned over 530 calories and I also burned my inner thigh... I will be paying for that for a few days. Then we worked in the yard for a couple hours! Yard work when it is 90 degrees burns the calories too! We went by an open house to visit one of KSTS's coworkers and had a little ice cream and cake... but it was very small! Then for dinner we had subway! I ate two subs, but my daily total for all calories is just a little over 2100! That is pretty stinkin good! Tomorrow my breakfast and lunch are already packed and I gave myself 1200 calories worth of healthy food then for dinner tomorrow we will eat with mom and pops and I will keep it light! Tomorrow is lower body weights and I am thinking elliptical trainer. I will weigh in the morning and update everyone on my weight. Hope its down! Last monday I was at 330... As long as I am at 327 I will be happy. Three pounds a week is good! Adios for this evening
Okay I am going to make this short and sweet! Friday wasn't too awful bad. By the time dinner rolled around I had only eaten 900 calories. So I are a good dinner, but not too awful. Prime rib, potatoes, and a salad. All Together I may have had 1500 calories. So that would put me in the 2400 range - now we went bowling after and KS and I did split a cookie, but even if there was 100 calories in it thats still just 2500 for the day! A number I can live with!
Saturday we went out for a special evening and we knew we would be eating at a high calorie place so I prepared once again. For breakfast a 130 calorie granola bar - then I mowed my father-in-laws yard so that burned a fair about of calories. For lunch a handful of chex snack mix. Lets say 200 calories at most! So by the time dinner rolled around I had eaten less than 400 calories and I was starving! We went to see this show called Cavalia - It is kind of like Cir des sole - I know I butchered the spelling on that.... Anyway it was really good and i highly recommend going to see it! The horses are beautiful and well trained! Then dinner - We were going to do Cheesecake Factory, but the wait was 2.5 hours! HOLY SHIT! That was not happening - so after some discussion we took off and found Firebirds - it was kickin like Van Damn! We had appitizers, salda, steak, potato, bread.... I think I blacked out during the feeding frenzy that took place..... I really cant say now many calories I ate - but it was a lot. And you know what... I don't feel too bad. I had prepared for the meal and we don't do that every night. Today back on the wagon and off to the gym. It is 10:45 and the gym opens up at noon and we will be there right as it opens!
