They say you can't go back

They say you cant go back, but that's not really true in some cases. What I have found is that I can go back to being 315 lbs and it can happen faster than I thought. Two years ago I was at my lowest weight in over a decade 250 lbs. But I became complacent and made a somewhat unconscious choice to stay there. ( I wasn't doing the necessary to lose, but I also wasn't trying to get back to where I was.) I've not gone all the way back to 315, but at my last weigh in I was 278.2 lbs. That 28 lbs that I have to lose again. That kind of pissed me off. I could give you a thousand reasons why I gained it back but they would all be just be excuses.

Anyway, I don't write this for pity or to publicly shame myself. But for the sole purpose of public accountability. It's not like I lack resources. Besides Bootcamp, I work at a gym for crying out loud.

So the idea is to use the numerous resources at my disposal.

Step one: Reconnect with a healthy and supportive community. (That's all of you) Hi everybody. My names Cory and I'm a recovering fat guy.

Step Two: Plan - Meals for the week have been planned. (Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner) Grocery shopping has been completed. ( No more unplanned trips to the store-it's bad for the waist and the wallet) Workouts for the week are planned. (three days of running and at least two days of cross training)

Step Three: Execute - Meal prepping will be done tomorrow for the Monday Tuesday, and Wednesday. Wednesday will finish out Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Log those meals. I even added the premium to my Lose It so I could log in advance to help stay on track.

Step four: Be accountable - I plan to blog weekly about the success and failures of the previous week. My post may not be long but keep an eye out for it. I have also begun personal training with Jeremy to help get me back on track.

I have goals.
