THE WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE BEGINS

Hey Everyone,

It has been a very long time since I have used this blog... Well its time to start new and use it a lot more....

I have been through some amazing things over the past year. I moved back to Niagara Falls, went to Las Vegas, went to Europem which took me all over Europe and the UK for 6 weeks in September... until end of October... I went to two amazing weddings....

The one thing that is on going in my life if my weight. If you know me, you know I've always been a big guy.... I'm 6'5" and yes I weigh over 300lbs... This hit a big bump back when I finished working for SYTYCDC. I came home went too Las Vegas with Jenny and realized my weight was way out of control.... As you can see in this pic:

I just felt so uncomfortable.. So out of sorts... So not me......I came home from Vegas and this was it... I had to start doing something.... I joined Weight Watchers and started working out... from February until May I lost 50lbs... I was feeling amazing. Then the summer came... I didn't fall out completely... but I didn't follow it completely... Next I knew I was off to Europe and I had an amazing time... I tried the different foods, drank the beer... and once I got to Scotland I had lost another 10 lbs.... but then I just let myself go.. Since I was staying with family it was much easier to access food... :)

Since I've been back home its been tough... Just trying to figure out what is next... I've been working out hard and everything... Been doing alright... The holidays came and I know they shouldn't be an excuse... I've only gained about 10lbs from the weight I was at before I went to Europe...

Now that I have explained the story... this is what I propose to you all.... My new goal weight is 240 which leave me at loosing about 80lbs... I am going to use this blog to write about my struggles and explain to you all how things are going... I encourage comments and or questions.... I have started last week but today (MONDAY) is the day of NO turning back. Every Friday or Saturday I will have a weekly weigh in... I will write my thoughts about eveything that is going on... all to achieve the new me.... The person I have been waiting to be since I've been 14.

I hope your all having a wonderful 2010...
