Autumn is the time of harvest, the time for enjoying nature's bounty. Not typically a time one thinks of for getting back on track with a fitness and weight loss routine.
I will admit it, I have not been following any plan for the past 4 months. I have not watched what I eat, I have not exercised, I have not been active. That's the cold hard truth. Sure I sugar coat things and try to give reasons or make excuses, but the bottom line is I indulged myself calorically and was nothing more than a slug sitting, watching TV or playing on the computer.
Sure I had great intentions and high hopes for myself, but I never got around to putting those intentions into any kind of meaningful action. That is changing here and now.
I am restarting my fitness and weight loss drive and I'm going to try and hold myself accountable by posting my goals and my progress here.
My slovenly ways have led to my gaining back a significant portion of the weight I had lost last year leading up to Pumpkinman. Here I am one year later and almost 40 lbs. heavier. Yes, 40 pounds! So, now is the time to get my ass moving and do what I keep meaning to.
I've started by modifying my diet. I am going back to the low carb diet as that is what seems to work the best for me. It is fairly simple and straight forward. Its so much easier for me to just say no to certain foods than to eat them in moderation.
My goal is to be under 400 lbs by Thanksgiving and in the 370's by Christmas. These are aggressive goals and will take work and dedication, but that is my plan.
Today's starting weight: 427.4.
