Morning All! Don't get too excited.. This may only last for a day... maybe two... but I feel slightly inspired today! Probably because my boss is getting all fired up about this race thingy and he wants me to enter it with him. More on that in a moment.

Current weight 332.5 - Weight last Sunday 1/1/12 337.5. Down 5 lbs in first week from cutting back on food alone. Tonight - walk & lift! I feel pretty disgusting! And my pants are all super tight! And when you are heavy and bloated there are other unexpected issues with your body... I don't think I will go there today, but maybe one day... Anyway! I need motivation and a goal. My 31st birthday is in March and I would really like to be below 300. If I seriously entertain doing this race then I better start running and training right away and drop below the 300 mark or I might die.

Remember that last post about blogging and facebooking for my company and all that stuff??? Well I have been doing it religiously and have been kicking ass at it! Its because I want my company to succeed and have lots of work and I want my boss to be proud of me. ***** (So by me failing with my weight loss and not following up with this blog mean that subconsciousness I want to fail with my weight and I am not proud of me??) ***** That is some seriously screwed up thinking and I don't think I am ready to dive into that pit of despair. WOW! I got side tracked! I am going to include links to my work related blogging, facebooking, article writing, etc... I would really like to know what you guys think and I am would love to hear "CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM"!

Twitter Link = https://twitter.com/#!/CCI_Tweets Or go to twitter and look for CCI_Tweets

Facebook = http://www.facebook.com/CustomCoatingsInc?ref=tn_tnmn Or go to FB and look for Custom Coatings Inc Hickory, NC

The Blogging Painters = http://bloggingpainters.com/author/patrick-stilwell/ This is a website I write articles for and they feature me on their site! (YES, KSTS does some editing on my articles... THANKS LOVE!)

Our company Blog = http://www.customcoatingsinc.com/_blog/Colorful_Insights Sometimes I write stuff and sometimes Joe does and sometimes I just wing it!

So as you can see, I have been quite a busy beaver with all my social media work stuff. And that cuts into Mr. Robusto time!

Now to the race! My boss has entered a Spartan Challenge. I will include the link below to their site. They are having a race in Charlotte on March 24th. When you go to their website and watch the video it gets you pretty pumped up - at least it did me! But notice something in all the videos & pictures - no fatties! Mr. Robusto = fatty! So I am quite nervous about attempting the race and I need some advice. I have 11 weeks to be ready for the race. If could lose 3lbs a week I could be under my 300 pound number and probably pretty fit. The race is a 5K, but you stop every 1/4 mile and do an event. When we were doing the couch to 5K - prior to me heel acting up - I was running for a solid 20 - 25 minutes and covering 2 miles, and that was running non stop. Take a look at the website and video

Do I have it in me in the short amount of time? I would need some massive support and if I had a partner that could go at my pace that would be awesome... Thoughts???
