This is the week before my final examinations, so I will not be able to hit the gym much in the next two weeks. I will update twice a week with my weight. My goals have not changed. I may end up staying around my current weight of 177 and then work my ass of in the last three weeks of December. Hopefully I will still be able to loose a little, but I don't have time to work out, or to plan my diet as close as I have to too be able to lose weight in a healthy way.
I finished this week 1 lb shy of my week goal. I am at 175 I am going to bump this weeks goal to 3 pounds. I know it is thanksgiving, but I'm gonna try to go big. I want to be on track with the goal sheet I set.
Keeping it off over the weekend

Today, Friday the 21st of November I weigh 174 lbs That is a 5 lb loss since Monday. I do not believe I have lost 5 lbs of fat. I believe much of it was excessive liquid and byproducts. I am working on maintaining my weeks weight loss over the weekend. I have the advantage this weekend of not having a football game to encourage me to eat pizza and drink a lot. I go to the University of Alabama, and I am a big fan of our #1 ranked and undefeated football program. I also have a ton of studying as well as a conservation/camping trip Saturday. Sunday I will have to work all day painting a store. Hopefully staying busy will help me avoid eating out, and eating out of boredom.

Monday I bought a big slice of chocolate cake called 'Death by Chocolate.' I have had it before used to love it, but I have not had a slice in over a year. It is currently sitting in my freezer. The day I reach 169.5 or less I'm eating that cake. Now every time I look for something to snack on I'll see that cake, and realize the more crappy snacks I eat now the longer I will have to wait to eat the cake.
I have been finding it difficult to update regularly. My lack of motivation to post is probably due to the fact that I have made no significant sustained weight loss in three weeks. Each week I work very hard to get myself to around 174lbs. I have achieved that goal three times, but when I drop down to 174lbs it feels as though I am starving. When I eat I never seem to feel full. I have noticed that things like thirst and boredom are being calculated as hunger more than usual. Here is an example, I will feel extremely hungry thirty minutes after a meal, and then I realize that I am just thirsty. I need to work on dealing with this, and calorie counting must be it. I moved away from calorie counting, because I felt I had a grip on how much and often I should eat. I am also re-vamping my menu, and excel chart. Here are my stats. I will hopefully be posting more often. I am very close to my goal, and want to do whatever it takes to reach it.

- I weigh 179 (+2.5lbs over 3 weeks)

planned for the election. With all that said I got off track a bit and got back on in the same week. I had been contemplating an end to my calorie counting days. I gave it a run, and the eating got out of control. I started an easier way for me to count my calories, by tracking less stats.
So here are the pics. Guess which ones a year old.
