Backwards progress....

Well last week totally sucked for me. I managed to gain 1.5 pounds, even though I was still hitting the gym. This just proves that diet is HUGE when it comes to losing weight. I was so good the first 4 weeks, but last week I never went grocery shopping, I ate out several times and was generally a dumb ass. NOW look at me, 1.5 pounds heavier....

OH well, I can't sit and be all bitchy, I need action. I am going to the grocery store tonight and I am getting my diet back on track, no more slip-ups, time to be hard core again!

I'm kinda crazy

You know I have been on a fitness kick. Starting Jan 5th I started a crazy workout and lose weight program. My main goal was to get below 200 pounds again. Well yesterday morning while at the gym I decided I needed more then one goal. I decided I was going to do a triathlon. So I got on the web after my workout and I found one I wanted to do. It's not a full triathlon, it's a "sprint" triathlon. This one is 0.5 miles swim, 16 mile bike, 3 mile run.

I think it's going to be fun, in that crazy painful sort of way. I mean come on, I have ridden my bike from SF to LA twice now, I can do this! Starting today I am modifying my workout to build up to this event. Swimming is cake, I already can crank that out. Biking will be cake (obviously), the one thing I don't do is run. So I need to start running which I have started.

I can't wait!

Things that piss me off....

I used to be a lifeguard. I was a competitive swimmer from age 8 until college. Obviously I life guarded and taught swim lessons during the summer :-)

Anyway I saw something yesterday that made me wanna smack someone. I was at the pool at 24 Hour Fitness to do my daily swim workout, after I was done I chilled in the spa for a bit. The gym was having swim lesson in the kiddie pool. There was a lifeguard there that instead of watching the kids was texting on her phone, I only saw her look up once. I wanted the smack the dumb out of her.... When you are a lifeguard you are paid to NEVER take your eyes off the water. It's your soul function. Ya, that angered me a bit....

Feeling like crap.....

You may or may not know this, but I am on drugs for panic attacks. Panic attacks blow!!!!! So drugs are happiness in this instance :). Anyway, if you are stupid enough to forget to take them, you end up feeling kinda icky as your brain chemistry will get fucked up and it's all bad. Basically you go through withdrawals....

The symptoms depend on how high a dose you are taking and how your body reacts to it, and the actual meds you are on. I have read on the net people complaining about feeling like crap if they take their drugs just an hour late (same drugs as me). I believe it cause honestly I can tell if I take my drugs late. Yet still, I managed to forget to take my drugs Sunday, and it was not pretty on Monday. It was not pretty today either. I don't think I have ever felt this crappy this long from forgetting a day of my drugs. Total suckage!

Mental note, NEVER forget to take them again!!!!!

Pride For Life X

I am on the fitness band wagon....again.....

But this time I am taking names and kicking ass!!!!!! I have organized a "Biggest Loser" competition with friends. Just a fun way to for people to stay motivated and keep track of their progress. I am doing rather well. I have lost 11 pounds total so far, we have been at it for 3 weeks now. I have been eating better, and hitting the gym twice a day. I lift before work and do cardio during my lunch hour. This system has been working well for me.

I just finally decided I could not stand being fat anymore. I have gained a good 60 pounds since starting my job here in Sacramento 7 years ago. I don't wanna be fat anymore! So it's time for a lifestyle change, not just a quick fix diet, or going to the gym for a week then stopping. It has not been super easy, but I wake up and do my thing every day. If I don't go to the gym I feel massively guilty, which is exactly the state I wanna be in.

My first goal is to drop bellow 200 pounds again. Once I reach that goal we will decide what to do from there. I don't wanna be skinny, I actually wanna be more muscly so I can't just pick an arbitrary weight and go for it, but I do wanna be sub 200 again. But since muscle does weight more then fat, once I hit 200 I will re-evaluate how I wanna proceed.

I added some before shots to this point, hopefully in a few months time I will add progress shots the gut will be greatly diminished....

Married for 3 days!

Roque and I got married on Friday, it was taken away from us on Monday. Way to go California, way to show we are regressing from our frontrunner status on rights to taking away rights from people.

And don't tell me the bible tell you I can't get married. That bible argument is fucking bullshit. Do you realize how many things in the bible you do that you are not allowed to do? Have you ever even read the bible? Why do you decided that one thing is somehow more important then others? You can't use the bible to take away my rights when you complete ignore like 99% of it yourself.

And how can you say it's not discrimination? You only say that cause deep down inside you think gay people aren't people, and you can't discriminate against non people. So screw you, yes you are discriminating against me!

OH and the sanctity if marriage MY ASS!!!!!! If anyone has ruined marriage it's you! 68% divorce rate? ya that is our fault somehow. And did you even know that marriage was not even originally in the bible? That was added in later buddy. You know one of the zillion times the bible was rewritten and edited to push a certain political agent by the church.

I know arguing with bible thumpers is totally pointless. Because you can't use logic with them. By nature religion is designed so that you don't need a reason, or proof or anything to back up your beliefs. It just is what it is and that is the end of it.

Well I hope you are happy with your lifetime commitment you have that is "sanctified by God" And I know this lifelong commitment will be just as meaningful once you are on your third wife......

All you have done is REALLY piss us off now. This is NOT over, the battle wages on.

Go Apple!!!!!!!!!

In a time when the bible thumpers are trying to blackmail companies into donating to the yes on 8 campaign, Apple today publicly came out against prop 8 AND donated 100,000 to the no on 9 campaign. Apple rocks!

Apple is publicly opposing Proposition 8 and making a donation of $100,000 to the No on 8 campaign. Apple was among the first California companies to offer equal rights and benefits to our employees’ same-sex partners, and we strongly believe that a person’s fundamental rights — including the right to marry — should not be affected by their sexual orientation. Apple views this as a civil rights issue, rather than just a political issue, and is therefore speaking out publicly against Proposition 8.
