This blog's purpose is to hold myself accountable for my transformation to a healthy lifestyle. Most of my life I have always been a large guy. I have not always struggled with my weight. I use to be very active in my childhood playing in team sports such as baseball, basketball, and golf. I then focused on my mind but neglected my body. It has taken me years to realize that the mind and body must go together. I have tried several diets over the years and none have worked for me. Over the years I have done research on different nutrient techniques. I started investigating how the society of America has become obese. My researched pointed me to fast food, subliminal advertising, busy work lifestyle, and processed foods. After knowing this I still decided to stick with my unhealthy lifestyle. My turning point was April 2015. This was the month I was to start my first job out of college. Instead, I was in the hospital and very septic with abscess. They said if I had not come in when I did I probably would have died. I was able to start work in May. I since devoted the next year to getting my work life straight. For my second year at my work I want to get my body straighten out. The good news is I now have the right information, the right kitchen tools, and I know how to cook. I just lost my spark to cook because of my busy lifestyle. I am currently 26 5"9' and weigh 291 lbs.
My Goals for the next 365 days:
- Eat healthier
- Be healthier by exercise ( Joined Lifetime Fitness gym recently)
- Lose weight
- Gain muscle
- Limit eating out to once per week and choice healthy choices
- When on vacation choose healthy options and work in exercise
- Eat breakfast which I currently don't do.
- Limit Processed foods as much as possible
- Add veggies and fruits to my diet
- Limit the amount of meat per week
