I remember the first time I got to change the first number in my weight. It's a glorious feeling. You get this sense of accomplishment about how everything is heading in the right direction. It's probably the only time I'll get to change that number as my ultimate goal weight is 225. I don't see myself dropping below 200 just because of my genetics and body structure. That's not the point of this post. 

 I've been hovering in the same 10-15 pound range for so long that I keep crossing over that 299.9 threshold repeatedly. The milestone seems to have lost its sparkle for me. Instead of a feeling of accomplishment, I get the "how long will it last this time" thoughts in the back of my head. 

 Not this time. I'm focused. I'm dedicated. I'm going to try harder! 

Today's weight: 299.4 

Starting Weight: 309

Last Weight: 304.

I’ve been hit and miss. Basically I feel like my motivation factor has been waning. I started going to the gym last week. I went 3 or 4 days (they run together so I can’t recall). The day after my first day was not good. I had a hard time moving my arms, but then something great happened. My shoulder pain was gone. I’ve had a sore shoulder for like 2 months. Nothing really terrible, just a twinge of pain when I moved it in certain ways. 1 day at the gym and it started to fade.

This week I’ve made bad food choices on my days off from work. The results are obvious.

Starting Weight: 309

Previous Weight: 300

Current Weight: 304 D’OH!

Neck: 18.5 inches

Waist: 55 inches

Hips: 52 inches

I don’t have any starting measurements so these will be what I compare. My arms and legs still need to get measured as well.

This week I’ve gone to the gym Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday. I have plans to go Friday. Wednesday I did my DDP Yoga since I didn’t hit up the gym. I’m trying to get my days to line up better so I have more consistency.
