This week was a success. I reached a short term goal. I dropped below 180lbs for the first time since I was about 14 years old. During the week I got down to as low as 177, but after Voodoo Fest in New Orleans, where I actually followed a good diet, with the exception of too much beer, I weighed in at 179.5. That is a 2.5lb loss, and really gives me motivation to drop these last 9-10 lbs. My new short term goal is 175lbs and my long term is still 170. At the rate of 2lbs a week I should be at my goal by November 24. I notice a major improvement on my belly. I swear the difference between 187 and 177 is amazing, but honestly the difference from 179.5 to 177. I think 170 will be an amazing weight for me. I did some math, and my BF% should be about 14%, but I am having a test done as soon as possible next week to give me an exact number.
I also wanted to mention the closer I get to my goal the stronger my cravings get. I seem to be constantly starving no matter how much I eat. Any advice?
Good job. Keep it up. Any recent pics. Your most recent one wasn't very good quality. I would like to see the difference between then and now.
I would love to take some high quality pictures. I feel like the change is pretty drastic. I had bought my ex a nice camera, and that is what I was using to take my pictures we broke up a week before I started this blog, so all I have is my cell phone. I also used to have a gym buddy to take the pics, but now he's fat and lazy again. I will receive a new cell phone within a couple of days. The new cell phone has a high quality camera, but even if I have to borrow one I will put some good pics up by Sunday.
By the way I never received your blogs address. I would really like to check it out. you can leave it here or e-mail it to me Kennith.Smitherman@gmail.com
