Work = booze + office party food

Visiting my mom = booze + food + Xanax

Max = booze + chocolate + food + Xanax - uncontrollable crying + more booze

I am in full on five alarm maintain mode. I was still losing about a pound every day or three, but at this point, if I get thru til January at the weight I was after THX, I'll be happy.

Then back after it.

Back on track...

Worked chest and back yesterday at lunch, Insanity day 1 last night.
Today, it was arms and abs. Nicely topped with a delicious protein shake.

Had a frosty cold, delicious protein shake this morning after teh trains myself. Speaking of FCDPS's, what powder do you use? I've settled on one that they sell at my gym. They make FCDPS's there and use a chocolate powder put out by Lee Labrada. They mix the powder, peanut butter, lowfat vanilla yogurt, banana, ice and water. Damn tasty, it is. I've run across quite a few in my time that I can't force down and if I do, I get the rumble farts the rest of the day. This stuff is fine and I don't get the rumbles from it.

The new Shake Shake by Weider Products

Actually use the vegan chocolate Shakeology. Ice, banana, one scoop, skim milk and a blender makes for a great smoothie. Substitute it for breakfast every other day. Fills me up and gives me way more whey, fiber and vitamins than a bowl of Honeynutt Cheerioes. Also helps maintaining sugar levels.

Gotta get my BP (157/104) and my blood sugar back in control. My blood sugar has consistently been running around 200 after meals. Doctor toldmme to loose weight and we would revisit. Diabetes runs in the family so it's time to take that shit more serious.

Back is really sore today as are the knees. My knee gave out doing wall squats about the 45 second mark and I busted ass on the floor. Gonna take it easy doing kenpo tonight. I can tell I feel better but don't how much weight was lost this first week.

Finished the final workout of 2012 at lunch. I'm down about 5 pounds and pumped about it. Eating clean and downing the H20 at a record pace. Pissing every 2 minutes. (That's where my workout comes in...sprinting to the bathroom and lifting something heavy)

But...tonight is my cheat night. Baby back ribs will be devoured. Those succulent little bastages don't stand a chance.

Decided to bite the bullet and join the YMCA. $55/month and it's five minutes from my work, has a nice indoor lap pool, a large weight lifting area, multiple classes, a spinroom, a sauna, and a steamroom.

I packed my bag with my workout clothes and went to sign up and work out.

Got there at 12:05. They closed at 12 today.

Fuck.

Downtown Y? I went there at 10:00 today, and I normally go there at 10:30 or 11 on the weekdays.

Holy shit dude.

Sounds like you are on the right track though. Keep it up on the Cheerios. I swear by them.

Yeah. Genetics suck. I have had heart issues since I was about 17. Blood sugar just started three years ago. Both sides have those issues and it seems to pass down to the next generation.

Not saying it's all genetics. I shouldn't have let my ass get out of shape in the first place. Genetics does play a part in the ticker department though.

Not attempting to talk up my wife but let me just tell you she has a whole lot of heart and health issues in her family. Not to mention we have "17" kids. She weighs 110 lbs at 5'6. You know what she does? She eats right and burns through treadmills like a sombitch.

This eating right and exercising thing....I keep hearing about it. But does it really work?

The ribs were outstanding Monday night. Ate and drank way too much, but got back on track yesterday and this morning at teh gyms.
