Well, most of the time when I make New Year's resolutions, they fall through within the first few weeks. Somehow that is not the case this year, and I'm pretty stoked I have kept it.
I looked up resolution on dictionary.com and this is what I got:
definition: a resolve or determination: to make a firm resolution to do something.
Hmmm, I guess I finally made up my mind, became determined that I was going to lose some weight before mid-July hits.
I was up to 210 lbs in December of 2009. By far the largest I have ever been, and I don't know if it was just stress from work, working crazy hours or not making time to hit the gym. However you slice it, I was overweight!
So my New Years resolution was to lose about 25-30 pounds before my dad and I go on a vacation this summer. I am down to 187 pounds, 23 pounds lost for you people that aren't so great at math ;)
My plan was to work out almost everyday at Golds Gym, lifting weight and doing cardio. Counting calories, having about 1500-1800 calories per day. And it has really worked.
All in all, I have pretty much met my goal, but I am not going to stop. This has almost become and entire lifestyle change I hope to have the rest of my life.
I feel so much better and have energy throughout the entire day. I can think better, and I'm more creative at work.
I can't wait to hit the beach with my dad.
