I was hoping to get a photo at the North Liberty Fun Days fireworks display on Sunday night but, unfortunately, the fireworks were cancelled because of the storms.
I was able to get out for a few walks during the weekend despite the weather. I am hoping to step up my exercise a little bit. I have to get over this mental block I have with running. Back in high school and college, I loved to run, I would go jogging in the UNI-Dome for 30-40 minutes every night, but I just stopped running. I probably have not run any distance for at lease 8-9 years. (WOW)
I have decided that I am going to jog/walk the Bix 7 with my sister. I need to have a goal. So hopefully I will get through it.
Personally I seem to be stuck in the 320's, I got down to 319 last Thursday, but I am back in the 320's. I just have to keep chipping away.
TODAY'S WEIGHT: 322.0 lbs.
I have been selected as the fourth member of the Brotherhood of the Traveling Shirt. The shirt was Matt Hoover's, the winner of the second season of the Biggest Loser. Matt passed it on to Scott Schulte, Schulte begat the shirt to Ryan Bevins, and then Ryan bestowed the shirt unto me. Do I have what it takes to continue the tradition of weight loss? Well this blog will be where I keep track of the successes and failures of my journey with the shirt...
Jason, congrats on taking the initiative to get healthy. Not sure if you had much contact with Ryan but my company Muve provided Ryan and his wife with a device called Gruve which accurately tracks your daily activity and caloric burn. Gruve has helped Ryan to stay motivated. A direct quote from Ryan:
ReplyDelete"My wife and I both enjoy Gruving everyday. It has become part of my life and daily routine. I really the simplicity of the color goals. I also love looking at unique activities online to see how many calories I burned. So far, I have lost nearly 50 lbs since I was picked by a local radio station to share my experience of weight loss last year. I've really tried to adopt the whole Muve philosophy, taking things slowly while I move more and eat a little less. It's been great for me because I have never been able to stick with a gym routine in the long run. Using the Gruve gives me a simple way to make sure I have been active enough.
I always tell anyone who will listen about the Gruve and have nothing but positive things to say. Thanks to Muve for giving me the opportunity to use such a great product!"
We would love to work with you as well. Please give me a call at 612-203-2621 to learn more.
