Beer devil

Well I found the culprit on my weight loss woes, it's BEER and it's killing my efforts. That and late night eating before I go to bed. So eat more during the day, less at night, no beer for a month.

6 miles!

I ran 6 miles today, it was brutal, I had to walk a couple times cause my back was tight. It pretty much took me out for the rest of the day, I'm gonna nerd it up around the house tonight and get a good start tomorrow on my ceiling fan and other stuff. I need to skate tomorrow.

AZ

I didnt workout the last 2 days since I was in Arizona for work. It was nice out there, but the summers are brutal. I'm finally starting to get over beer. I'm not losing any weight so I gotta get my diet in check, gonna do a 2k a day.

COme on

This weekend I blew it. Actually all last week was pretty much a clusterfuck on the diet tip. I drank just about every night and this weekend I felt like shit and was pissed off and generally in a bad mood for some reason. I went on a binge last night and ate pizza and hotwings and beer. It's time to get serious about this thing. I'm doing good on my workouts, it's my eating that is fucking me up. So I'm going to start with a 2000 calorie diet, with high protein and low carb. I'm cutting out beer and pizza.

Off to the races

Well, I ran my 1st race today with Brian at the park. It was a 4 miler, we jogged/walked over there and back so I figure it was about 5 miles total. It was fun, I ran kinda slow because I didnt know what to expect. I felt pretty good til we hit dog hill, that was a motherfucker. It was freezing outside this morning, my throat feels like it's closing up and I'll probably choke all day, but it was totally worth it. I need to work on hills, endurance and my mindset for sure.

4miler: 51.23

2 steps forward 1 step back

Went 4 miles at the gym last night. I felt great. I feel like I'm really making progress. The race is sat. 4 miles, my goal is to run the entire thing, we'll see what happens.
That work was negated though after I smoked a few bowls with brian then hit the mag for a minute. I think i had a 6 pack in about an hour. I got home and ate a can of biscuits and a lot of bacon right before I went to bed. Bad Move Mike, stop it.

I dont know why I drink so fast in bars, I need to slow down, calm down and just chill out. in all aspects.

wtf

so fucking mad and upset and pissed off and I'm not sure way. I'm scared to succeed. How can I get past this? What is the answer?

Well shit.

I started my workouts with brian on the 4th of this month. I ran/walked 4 miles today.

pounds lost: 0

this is getting on my nerves. I'm gonna stay the coarse though and see what happens. If at the end of this month i haven't lost any weight, i'm gonna have to rethink my diet or count carbs or something.

Day 7

Well tonight will be workout #7. I weighted myself last night at the gym and I hadn't lost a pound. It kinda bummed me out a little but fuck it, it not going to happen overnight. My diet is a little better, I've chilled with the drinking and fast food, but I'm sure it could use some more cleaning up, baby steps though, baby steps. As soon as this cold it gone I should be rocking and rolling.
I ran 2 miles the night before last, I dont think I've done that in at least 6 years, I was pretty stoked on myself.
I plan on running the Run for the Roses races. It's 3 races here around Louisville. I'm really excited about it since I've never ran a 5k before.

I stripped my bike down the other day. I have to fix the sparkplug hole, kickstarter and head gasket. I will have it back together before spring. I plan on pulling the head off this weekend

And so it begins.

worked out yesterday with Brian, felt good. Today I ate like shit and was hungry all day. I ate Wendys, so that kinda fucked me up. I'll write more later.
