HOLD ON

"When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place."

"If you want it, you gotta take it. "

" ["I don't believe this. All that talk about never giving up is all lies. You never believed it yourself. And what you said to me, remember? "Now is the time to do it for yourself". "The world meets nobody halfway". "If you want it, you gotta take it".]"

Eating Habits

In my expierence I have found that you do not really need to change the foods that you are eating.  The most most important thing is to limit the size of the portions you are eating at each sitting.   Live by the rule~  Don't eat more than the size of your palm. 

 Eat  throughout the day and do not eat until you are full,  Eat only enough to take away the hunger.

DO SOMETHING!

Stay active.  Set a schedule for exercise and if you fall short of time one day and you cannot do your routine...... DO SOMETHING. Take a walk around the block or a 5-10 minute jog.

WHEN YOU THINK YOU ARE DONE.  DO MORE!!!!

NEWEST GOAL!

I had a goal of running 100 miles in the month of June.
I did it and did not quit there.  We are nearing the end of August and I have run 100 miles in June, July, and August!  Life seems to have less stress as I take out a extra 30-40 minutes out of my day to take a run through the neighborhood or around the river.



My New Goal~
I once read someone say that he did not want to be the 170 lb guy that could bench 400 lbs but would rather be the 170lb guy that benches 250lbs and can do  30 pull-ups at a time.  This will be me. Nothing will stop me because my mind is set.
What are your goals?

My 3 month before and after picture

I started with goals.  I have reached some. Some I have not.   When goals are accomplished this is not the time to give up rather a time to re-think and set new goals that will push us to higher limits! 
 May 20th- 185lbs------- August 20th- 155lbs -Round 1 P90X

I do not want to be the one guy out of my friends that can bench press the most weight or be the guy who is the biggest.   I want to be fit and feel good emotionally and physically.
