As many of you have probably seen, my trainer raised the ante on Wednesday by making me write my weight on the wall. He then proceeded to tag me in a facebook post asking my friends and families to throw me under the bus any time they see me eating pizza, beer, and any other unhealthy things. Apparently this was a successful strategy already, because upon arriving to the bar after hockey last night, I was reminded that beer was off limits by a teammate.
It reminded me how powerful a community of people could be, because I legitimately feel like my friends would be happy to notify Carley everytime I stray from the plan. It would be in my best interest afterall, and they would be amused when my legs are crushed by a harsh leg day.
I guess now that it is facebook official, I really have to act right. The goal is to be down to 195 by the end of the month, and I think I can do it. Two pounds a week, especially when I certainly have some to spare will fall off relatively easily at first, and this jump start should provide the spark I need to get back to sub 190 sooner than later.
I guess this is where I say, if I ask for beer during the super bowl, don't give me any, I'm not allowed to drink it!
That is cruel and unusual punishment but I guess a man has to do what a man has to do. It’s a good thing the Bills aren’t playing or you would. Ever survive. Good luck, we are rooting for you!
All the best. You can do it!
Thanks for the encouragement, and for stopping in!
