Still hanging in There

This morning I got up  finished by computer regimen and hopped on the elliptical machine.   I set the program for fat burner and walk for 36 minutes.   Today my legs hurt but I finished with almost 5000 steps.   According to Dr Oz that needs to get up to 10,000.   I bet I get that walking back and forth to the refrigerator.   

Great news I weighed in today at 245 and officially have past through another stage.  So far I've gone from fat ass, to lard ass, and know resting comfortably on Twinkee ass.    Like I'e mention before my insurance company would like a 60 year old 6 ft 2 in guy to weigh a max 197.  My goal was 10% of my body weight which would put me at around 235.    But checking with Dr Oz 235 only gets me from twinkee ass to pretty big ass.   I've been called that a few times.    Anyway still moving forward.

So far this has not been all that bad.    For instance last night I had a salmon filet with carrots and broccoli, cole slaw and about 10 cherry tomatoes.    About 900 pm I had a bowl of banana, blue berry, a mixture of nut with two heaping table spoons of vanilla yogurt.    The Salmon was absolutely great.

I'm not going into any kind of depression, but I do have cravings from time to time.   Every time that occurs I think about my kids and wife and there encouragement.    Every time I talk to them they are supportive and give me suggestions to keep going.    If I were to give any advice I would say that having a support system that will ride your fat ass is critical in eating healthier and accomplishing your own effort.    I'm having a blast.    Tonight I think I will eat a thick cut rib eye.    Can't wait.
