The (somewhat) Before Picture

Here it is:


This is what 235 pound looks like.
It's hard to imagine, but this is better than I have looked in quite a while.
I am down by about 10 pounds and, contrary to my face in the picture, I feel great.
More pictures will be coming and hopefully the weight will be dropping off.

Update.

I'm feeling better and better everyday.
It seems that I can do most things without feeling like I am about to die.
We've been walking everyday and, besides being tired from work, I haven't felt lethargic afterward like I used to.
Also this week, I got some stuff to fix my old bike up and am planning on taking a little ride this weekend.
What an exciting time!
I still hate salad...

Saturday Morning Walk

Amber, Taylor and I all went for a walk in the blistering heat.
It was fun nonetheless.


I fell a bit behind.
Oh well, I did it and that's what counts.

Fat Andy Jogging

I can't go for long, but when I do it feels good and I'm tired afterwards.
Sounds familiar...

Something Unheard Of...

I brought my lunch to work today...
It's quite the accomplishment, believe me.
Last night I got a wild hair up my ass and made not only egg salad, but tuna salad as well.


I think I might be turning over a new leaf, but we will see what the week brings.

Hot Walk

On our evening walk, I sweated more than any regular human being does.
Amber returned totally dry, Taylor was a little hot and Emaline summed it all up when she sat down in mid-step.
We did see a man with two parrots and talked with him for bit.
It was like walking through a neighborhood from PBS Kids if muppets lived on the sun.

Added Benefits.

Time was I would eat about eight or ten Tums a day, more probably.
Ever since I have been watching what I eat and cutting down on Cokes, I haven't needed many at all.
The only time now, really, is when I have spicy food at night.
I don't mind the taste of Tums, but I'm glad it's reign over my stomach has come to an end.

Another Week Down.

Just finished another week for the books.
I've been feeling great, better than I have in a while actually.
Eating right has been easier than I thought, it's getting past the laziness of the fat life I've been living.
I'm doing it though and I look forward to the future.

Hardcore Walking

I pounded out some tread this evening.
I wasn't alone though, I had Amber and Emaline to keep me company.

What an Ass!

Sorry I haven't been updating my blog.
It doesn't mean that I haven't still been keeping up, it just means I'm lazy.
Right now I'm up to about 7 pounds lost and I feel great.
I'm gonna try to write more about the experience and where I am at than the food.
It was just getting boring.
Maybe one of those shirtless fat guy pictures is in order...
We will see.
