Once a Fat Man......but NEVER again.

So- the Saturday with the old circle of friends is tomorrow. I am nervous that I do not look good enough and the old feelings of inadequacy will come back. I have made great strides in all departments but still can be made to feel like my 20 yo self with one comment. We will just need to wait and see.

So now you see if you have really changed, or is it just superficial. Has going to the gym, watching what you eat, running more in a day then you could in a month, making all the right healthy choices and staying strong in the face of temptation. Was all this just to shed some fat or is there more to it. You have changed. You are not the same 20 year old looking to his friends to define who and what he is. You have taken what others had you defined as and you accepted, and remolded it to your specifications. You know what? You did a much better job of it then they did.

Erin is fine. 12 weeks pregnant now. She is officially in her second trimester. we took a long walk yesterday and talked about the future and things. Domesticated life is just fantastic sometimes. :D

This is what I'm talking about. You are making a future. Not based on past mistakes, but on past successes. The future, and your relationship with Erin, and your kid soon, and all the domesticated bliss that awaits. That is who you are. Now and here on out.
 
I agree with Ali and Troops... there is nothing more that I could say that they haven't already so genuinely and accurately stated......


So I will just say this... Have a good time Brian. You are looking great.

Awww...it made me smile. I'm happy for your happy domestication. :)
 
ok
Saturday was surprisingly fine. Everyone asked me what happened to me- almost to the point of being afraid to ask because they though I was sick or something. The only one that refuses to say anything is my brother.
I ate way to much Saturday and continued that on Sunday. My weight this morning was still 216 though since my body is usually a day or so behind what I eat.
I am pissed I ate so much this weekend and that I can still do that. I am sure that tomorrow morning I am going to be back up over 220 so i need to work my ass off this week and be good. I am just annoyed that I am still capable of doing that type of irresponsible eating. I will get over this but the pissed will help me to get back on track here. I will work my ass off and get to 215 this weekend.
All in all things suck. Work sucks this morning, my eating sucks- oh well. It will get better only because it can not get to much worse.
I will be fine, just irritated this morning.

Thanks for reading my bitching drivel.
 
Brian, that's great about the weight. Think about last month and your weigh ins. 225-225-225-225...

Now you are talking 216. even if you think it's a false low, it's something to get things going again. Hit it hard today and you'll probably see it again tomorrow and that'll be the base line to beat.

Great way to end the month. :hurray:


Very cool about the compliments. I'm sure that you ate more then you'd like to have, but think about what a gathering like that would have been like last year. You probably would have eaten twice as much. You are just measuring it against a different yard stick, now.
 
Its not a false low- if anything it will be signifigantly higher tomorrow. But I will work to get it down again- this has happened before to me, little to much.
The gathering was good, i liked not being embarrassed about how I looked, it was an odd feeling.

That's what I meant by a false low. The scale is reading low but you know it's not really that weight.

Hey, that's how I started June. I had a low end of month reading and a bad weekend. My after weight was 8 pounds higher then the previous weigh in. But it all came off and then some. You'll be higher tomorrow, but that will go, too.

Gotcha- I read false low as a weight right after a workout or something.

It will go, just pissed that I put myself in the position I am in where I need to work especially hard to get things down.
This to will pass.
Thanks Trops- you really are the voice of reason lately. :D

Not true. Mine get me in all kinds of trouble. I try to ignore them. There is this one that is particularly loud and bossy - but I can usually shut her up with chocolate. ;)
 
Ooh, that's not a hallucination. That's one of those evil spirit things I've heard about. Don't shut her up with chocolate. Tie her up and gag her and whip her with a... Oops, sorry Brian. Uhm... carry on. :leaving:
