I am getting a little stricter with my breakfasts and I have stepped up my workouts.
I increased my six exercises from 3 sets to 4 sets. The weights used for each exercise is increasing at a good pace. I am not pushing to hard and trying to focus on form. Form is really important when you get to the hihger weights. It will reduce the chances of injury.
My weight as of Friday was 469. I hope that it keeps coming down and won't make any big jumps again.
I know I need to add cardio on my off days and I will eventually do that. Right now I am doing the exercises that I enjoy (weightlifting). It provides me with a sense of accomplishments, when I increase the weights used, and it helps me to reduce the temptations of eating the wrong foods.
Please remember, even though it may sound cheesy, treat your diet as everyday is a new chance to eat well. it doesn't matter how you did yesterday, today is the day that I will eat the foods that are healthy and will help me lose weight.
Until next time,
David

Ups and Downs
In the last few weeks, there has been a swing of 7 lbs up and down. And it's very confusing and frustrating at times.
My eating has been more consistent. Of course I can always do better.
My workouts are more consistent. But that can definitely get better.
The things that keep me going is the love of my family and friends who root for my success. I keep reminding myself that I am running a marathon and not a sprint. I am making those small changes now that will lead to big dividends down the road.
I wake up everyday and look for the positive things in my life. Things that I need to keep in perspective. That no matter how bad I have it, there are many many people who have it a lot worse than I do.
Tomorrow is another day. I need to continue to find the strength that will help me to strive and become the best version of myself.
1st step. Continue to find the joy in the growths made in my workouts.

A Good Day
The last few days have been very good. I have been using the Diet to Go Meals, along with the meals that I have been preparing for myself.
No real bumps in the road.
I had recently switched my DTG menu to traditional low fat and I am enjoying the change.
Today I have had my 2nd workout of the week at Evolution Health and Fitness and it is helping me keep on track with my eating. I am starting to be able to push myself in my workouts, but still have to be careful since it is relatively new.
Tomorrow will be another day of success.
