Get up Fatty!

Yep, I am referring to myself!  This is my public declaration that I am tired of looking in the mirror and saying, "What the hell happened, man?" and cringing!  So, I have the elliptical, the running shoes, and the disgust of the reflection.  Therefore, miles will be put on that machine and the pavement.

Maybe I should keep a daily log, for accountability purposes, on here at the end of every blog.  That sounds like a good idea.  And if I get slack, feel free to bust me up and make me get off the couch.  It seems like obesity and laziness is an epidemic in our society today and I do not want to be another victim.

When I was a Marine I hated the forced physical training that we had to do.  The endless 5 o'clock in the morning runs and grueling calisthenics sessions that some thought were fun!  Looking back, though, even though they were not enjoyable I did feel great after those runs and workouts.  When I was done it was almost like being high!

So, maybe I can get that feeling back and also that weight that I had.  Yeah, for those of you that have seen me, would you believe that I was all the way down to 172 at one point?  Granted, I looked like a bobble head then, so 185-190 is my goal.  And even though a good weight number is a sincere goal, I think the healthy feeling and ability to do things with your children without losing your breath is even more of a motivator.

Onward ho, let the journey begin!  Tomorrow shall be the first mileage/time count on my blog!
