I lost 4 lbs this past week. It don't help that I had DQ on Saturday. I feel lighter and overall better. I was sore last week from my starting lifting weights again. Today in plan on putting together a game plan for my workouts. I plan on pulling from different styles of work outs. Mainly biking/running weight training, p-90x and boxing cardio/conditioning. Add to this my heathy eating and plenty of sleep and I should be in great shape by June.
The juicing excellent. I am becoming a stronger runner. Hopefully I can run 10 plus k without getting an asthma problem. I'll try to post pictures of my progress, workouts and favorite juices.

Juicing and the gym
So I have finally gotten serious about losing weight. I started juicing this week. I have a juice shake for breakfast and dinner and then a healthy sandwich or soup for lunch. And I have been going to the gym to run and lift weights!
I feel so much better. I have not weighed my self since Monday but i feel less fat. Which is a good feeling. I do get a hungry feeling but not a weak feeling I used to get when I ate junk. I have plenty of energy which is nice. If I can keep this up I am sure I will be down to 180 by June or weigh more but have more muscle. I feel generally more happy and positive about life. I do so without even trying. It must be from my healthy food consumption. And exercise. It also makes me feel more empowered lose weight. I have been trying to drink 120 oz of water. Hopefully this will aid in flushing out my system. It's strange to bee eating less and not be as hungry as before.
It's exciting.
Till next time

I feel fat!!!
I hate and love food. Hate it because I love it and it make me fat. Well I make me fat from over eating food. But it just tastes so good.
My a parents have challenged me to a family biggest loser contest. Which I am going to win.
As long as they don't send five guys burgers and fries gift cards my way.
Hummm maybe I should do similar to them first. Also I am going to start juicing more. I think I will start out with breakfast and dinner juicing then add lunch down the road. I would also like to see how much weight I could lose eating subway for a week. They have breakfast subsq under 200 calories and lunch/dinner under 600. If I ate these as my main meals with juice interspersed or some healthy snacks that could easily be under 1400 calories a day. Plus with running and biking I should burn more than that. I haven't started swimming yet. I am hoping it stays warm like it has been this week so I can bike run outside. I am going to try and go to the gym very day either to run or lift weights. Added muscle helps burn calories!!
Feel the burn
Embrace the suck!!!!

New year
I have been slacking in my writing and workouts.
In have biked a little last night and ran tonight.
We rescued a blue nose pit bull. He might not stay but he ran with me tonight.
He is a good at motivation. It's now January 8th I ran this morning but because of my one leg shorter than the other my back is in a fit. I need to get a orthotic shoe or some kind of lift. I have decided that I might need more motivation to lose weight other than to lose weight.
I haven't decided what that is. But something bigger than even dieting for iron man. That would help to control my eating by giving me something to shoot for. It's hard to get my self out of bed and exercise. It's easier to watch tv or eat whatever. Food can be like cocaine to some people. I think I get like That I seem to always want more. I just need to focus and keep training and slowly change my diet. I think I'll start by eating more fresh homemade soups. This is a tasty way to get more vegetables. Which Dr Oz says is one way to be more healthier. 1/2 off all meals should be vegetables. I am going to get more vegetables this weekend.
Training has been hard because one i am tired in the morning and tired at night when I get home.
I am also trying to train without injuring myself. Because of this I am taking it slow. I need to get back to my gym which I haven't been to this year. I am struggling to find a place to swim. I am kicking around the idea to get an endless pool. Except its expensive. It's mostly a dream.
It would be fun though. Anyway I am rambling on.
I'll try to write more often.
