Preston

Ok, so it has been a long time. I am not doing all that well. It is very hard to maintain a lifestyle yo are not use to. I have been going to the Gym off and on maybe twice a week. I do not really see any changes in but I refuse to get on the scale because I am afraid of what it will tell me. The worst part is it is going to get cold here soon. I hate the gray cold weather. It does not motivate me what so ever and just makes me want to stay inside. I am watching the biggest loser but that is not helping motivate me either. Shesh! What is up with me? Sorry it has been a while. I just wanted to update my friends on here. Hopefully I can continue to update you on a regular basis. Thanks for all the great comments.

The baby is amazing! I had a great time and did not eat all that bad. Instead of stuffing myself to the max I just ate a little bite of everything I wanted. I took the advice not to ever go through fast food but we ending up eating at Apple Bees. They have a low carb menu and even weight watcher point meals. I think that was a good choice. We also bought a basketball goal for the cul-de-sac so we and all the neighbors have a place to shoot hoops. We are going to put it together tonight. I will have to take a picture of it and post it when we are done setting it up. Thank you for all the support and kind words.. Honestly a lot of what I thought about was, “I don’t want to let my buddies down” LOL. I guess that is why I joined! Yay for us!

Well the gym kicked my butt. I am so sore. It is amazing what a little encouragement can do for a person. I just assumed that I would get a couple emails from people like me that just wanted to complain about not doing anything. lol. However, what I found was an awesome group of people who really want to succeed and reach their goals. So yeah, in one day I became someone who was whining, to someone who is doing. I am visiting my new niece this weekend so I will be out of town. This is the hard part.. Stopping to eat on the drive there and then eating my mother in laws farm made home cooking. How can I bypass the burger and head straight for the chicken? I know it is a matter of will power not to order the bad stuff. When you are there it is so tempting. Wish me luck!

Well I am heading out to the gym in a few.  I mowed the lawn today as well so I think that counts for something. Spent a couple hours outside today and it felt really nice. I must tell you that I am a REALTOR so I have days that I do not do anything but phone calls and paper work. It is really hard to stay active when you do not have anything to get you going in the morning. It is easy to become lazy when you have days you do not have anything to do. I have another goal in mind that I just thought about. It is a goal I think that everyone runs into at some point. My 10 year is coming up and well… I want to look awesome. I am already proud of where I am at in my career goals and I love where my life has taken me. So to add icing on the cake I want to look Rock’n!

Wow! So I have to say that in the last 12 hours I have been on here I have had 9 very encouraging comments. The funny thing is… I kinda am pumped to go to the gym tomorrow just so I can share about it on here. Is that stupid? I mean this site is amazing! I have my space as well so just ask. I also wanted to clear up something that was asked my a new buddy of mine. My name is Justin. My middle name is Preston. I like both and you can call me either. I guess right now I should be in bed. I have the day free so I am in now hurry to get sleep. I wanna know how you stop yourself from buying all that junk food when you go the the store.. If it is not in the house it is not in my mouth. Right?

Well this is going to be odd. I am not sure if I will keep up with this but I thought I would try. I have been really struggling with losing my weight and keep wondering if it is ever going to happen. I even have a gym membership but I am never motivated to go.  I have a suspicion that I might be on the verge of diabetes but still do not want to face the uphill battle of trying to get healthy. I have no idea what is wrong with me but I know that I have to do something.  Well I guess that sums it up for the most part. Mayne I can find someone that I can trust and chat with about this… say hi if you think you can help.
