Day 151 Now with scales!

Yes I finally am posting pictures and now with a scale update. I have still been doing the usual, eating healthy, absolutely no pop, drinking a LOT of water (more than usual this week actually), and trying to exercise whenever I can (they closed the pool this week though to drain it due to algae, so Fatty and I didn't get to go on Thursday, we did throw the baseball around for a little while though).

So here are the pictures:

Day 1/151:

 Day 15/151 side:

My Dad (Thanks again) bought me a scale last Sunday, I tried it out in the store and it read 427.4! a loss of 72.6lbs (also tried again later at home and it read the same thing)!!! But that's not the best part about it, I weighed myself countless times in the last 15 minutes because I did not believe the scale but this is what it read numerous times (or within .1 lb difference):

So if it's true that the "scales don't lie" I am now down to 419.6!!! I have lost a total of 81.4lbs in 151 days!!! The numbers on the bottom are what my daily calorie intake should be, umm but screw that I eat less, I'm not going to lose weight eating almost 5k calories a day.

Thanks again for the support and the amount of people behind me, Oh I also got a new shirt 4XLT! and a new pair of shorts size 50 waist!!!

Workout Videos?

I finally got to the gym last week!!! I only made it there 3 days but it was good and I plan on getting back again this week for more sweating :) My workout consists of 15 minutes on the elliptical, which usually hurts my knees but I figured out if you actually do a walking motion as your foot comes up it takes a lot of stress off your knees. Than I do about 15 minutes on our weight machine, I can get in 2 sets of each of the workouts I do in. Then I go to the pool and swim 25 laps, do a couple leg workouts (water aerobic stuff) then finish up with 25 more laps.

So what do workout videos have to do with any of this you may be asking, well nothing... I recorded day 1 & 2 at the gym and plan to keep making these videos, most likely once I get a new camera though. But here are day 1 & 2...

Day 1:



Day 2:



I still don't have a scale yet but my Dad and I found a couple that are in my weight range from $70-$90 so I may be getting one soon. Once I do I'll start weighing in each week on Sundays and letting you guys know where I'm at, followed with pictures at the beginning of each month (this months will be up as soon as I get someone to take them).
