Time to get healthy, here is my diary!

Hello all, I am a 26 year old male, with a bit of excess weight. I am currently a nursing student with one year left. By the time I graduate I have a goal of being my ideal weight...160lbs. About 4 years ago I lost around 50 lbs, I was like a machine, literally. I worked out at 5am, and 5pm 6-7 days a week. I did not enjoy working out, but I did not hate it either, it was just routine. Well my now wife and I went to Switzerland, and I found out what free time was again! So when we returned, my routine kind of fell off...way off. I gained all the weight back, plus some. I am a great cook, and I will post up pictures of the meals I cook, in hopes of remaining healthy. I have started Insanity multiple times, got to two weeks, and fell off, I need to just stick it it. My wife and I are also signed up for a warrior dash on Father's Day...EEK!

I recently made a contract with my dad and mom, who have both been smokers for over 40 years. They are always poking at my weight for health reasons, and I return with a comment about smoking. We recently came to an agreement, that if I lose 50 lbs, they both will stop smoking. A contract has been written up and signed. I currently weigh in at 240, so this will be quite the trip! Now time to lose weight!
 
Sounds like a good deal you got with your folks. I am starting the second week of month two of insanity tomorrow. So if you need/want to talk about or complain about let me know. I can do both. Good luck in your journey.
 
Dave, win that bet! I lost my Dad to smoking-related cancer last September. That bet is worth fighting for. Good luck.
