Day 69 - Dopamine

Working it out - going to be okay. I can feel myself healing

Day 68 - Mood Music

Woke up and an incredibly good mood this morning. And that was before the kick boxing workout which was tremendous, a natural uplifting my mood. I would have to add that I don't think I've heard anything I got eight hours plus of sleep. Per usual the kickboxing instructor was inspirational left me with a quote she said make a plan and execute the plan then you can talk after you walk. Today I'm going to finish with some Pilates and some situps and then do the same thing all over again tomorrow and my mood should be amazing to have a killer week next week. I need to really pay attention to the hours I'm getting sleep well because I think that has a very big affect I've also read that weightlifting has different effects on your mood than just regular cardio and I have taken a week off

Day 67 - Mood Stabilizer

Okay so very interesting I am clearly on the downswing and heading back to my Darkside but unlike other times I am very aware of both the triggersand of the solutions I am present. So this time I'm not just going to sit around and wait I'm going to take control and keep this short stint.

For one thing I definitely noticed a change when I broke out of my pattern of exercising mainly lifting weights early in the morning. With all this research I'm doing on dopamine receptors I can see how there is a correlation. And really when you combine that with my Father's Day weekend which was wonderful but the eating and drinking really smart with me out of control and I was disappointed that I missed my kickboxing class I was looking forward to. I can see confirmation that my theory that when I'm in one of those moods it seems like everyone else hasn't moved problem when it's clearly me. 

Day 66 - Locked In

Yeah, I'm in the bad mood but I'm still locked in my zone. It's that cyclicle part where I am disappointed in myself. No time for that!  Keep going and get those recepters back in shape!

Day 65 - Natural Energy

No more 5 hour energy drinks.

That's it.

Day 64 - Next Phase

I'm not in the mood.

Get 'em.

Day 62 - Father's Day

Drank all day and watched movies. Ended with Steak and Potatoes and early nigh nigh. 

Day 63 - Day Off #2

Fun day out to lunch with mom and kids then we hit Micke Grove! This weekend from Friday to Monday I let loose -look

Day 61 - Math and Science

Watch what I eat to the detail. Output more than I input and I'll lose weight. Lift weights and I'll change my body compisition. 

Day 60 - Day Off #1 - Poker Splash

Today I thought really good at the water park did lots of walking even as the sun drained my energy. I'm not the best looking thing in a bathing suit but I still felt good and I definitely have larger muscles that I have before. Also I'm wearing the shirt that was a little bit more snug on me a few months ago and take a look at this picture my face is thinning out

And I did have pizza and liquor tonight but nothing really out of control and the best thing is tomorrow is going to start to kick my own ass for a week. I control what happens over the next week which is going to start with two brutal kickboxing sessions dieting heavy Pilates jump rope jumping jacks and then finishing with more kickboxing. I'll be damned if I don't lose 5 pounds

Day 59 - Waste Away (July 1st)

Progress is happening before my eyes and I'm getting completely ripped I just have a lot of fat still around my waist. Next week I'm going to really focus on diet and cardio and the goal is by 1 July to have a significant shrinkage of my waistline.

Goals to knock it out of the park

Day 58 - Home Grown

Four years in August - enough is enough. Time to be a man.

Day 53 - Camping

Oh what a time!  I didn't do too bad, 6 beers and some swim. Bout 5 hotdogs and tons of honey roasted peanuts. Sleep with no cpap and definatly got choked up a bit.

Day 52 - Buff Cutrip

I'm elevating

Day 51 - Stretch Armstrong

I'm pissed off at my shirts. I know that I'm losing inches off my waist but somehow the shirt still feels a little bit snug and I have to believe it's because of the dry cleaner. That being said...I have one solid week where I'm going to go hard and make sure that tape measure says a 45 inch waist. Men lie women women lined shirts lie but the numbers don't.

Day 50 - Habits

PI am so used to this now that it has to stick. Up and at 'em, work out, crush the job, eat right.

8:17am - Eyes - I can see!!

10:12pm - I had lots of pizza and soda (yummy)

Day 49 - Status Quo

Excercised, skipped the booze, at under but Im not dialed in with my diet. Soon i will accept that it will take alot longer this way.

Day 48 - Waste Management

So yo, 3" off my waste although the scale is not moving significantly. The tape measure does not lie.

Cant wait to its at 40" - then say something, bitch. What.

Day 48 - Sugar War

It is found everywhere and is my achilles heel. Good news is I am to a degree limiting it on my cheat days but to get what I need, that can't happen. With the intibsity of my workouts happening I will feel worse about doing it - which puts a premium on limiting the judgement juice

Day 47 - Opportunity

I have so much to do today but a great opportunity to accomplish my goals. I'm on my way to a kickboxing class I'm going to lift weights in the garage today and I'm also going to do jumping jacks and jump rope I'm also going to walk my dog to make sure that I have 15,000 steps. I'm starting to feel that change that you feel when you're progressing my body doesn't feel so heavy I feel more athletic and I feel like I need to exercise. I love the fact that I have been lifting so much weight it's also giving me cardio benefits. I've got togoing I'm lifting weights I'm doing cardio overall positive thinking and eating right it's going to be a

Great rest of the year.
