What's Next?

Hawaii is only 35 days away, but what happens after that? I plan on continuing the journey, but what goal can I have after Hawaii?? I think that if I can be working towards something, I do better at staying committed to the goal. So what's next after getting back from Hawaii? I was talking to my Bestie the other night and he mentioned a 5 mile run on Memorial Day. I have to admit, I'm intrigued. I think it's definitely attainable within the time frame. That would give me roughly 5 and half months to get ready (that's a little over 19 weeks or 137 days from today). If I stay on track with the weight loss, another 19 weeks would be another 38lbs; if you add that to the weight I've lost so far, that would be a little over 62 lbs. I'd be around 262. Could my body handle running 5 miles? It's not a marathon, but it's still a chunk of miles to run. But I think it's definitely do-able. It will give me something to focus on after Hawaii and I don't want to lose the focus cause I'm starting to see results, which just gets me more motivated. So I've got to keep moving and the challenge of running 5 miles will keep me moving. I'll have to think about it, but let's get through the next 35 days first.

or maybe 137 days left?

Oh So Close!

Today is officially 5 weeks until Hawaii. 35 short days. It also means another weigh-in. The last couple of workouts this week were great and I was feeling very confident going into this weigh-in. But, it was a holiday week with Christmas and I didn't have the luxury of being off work the day of the weigh-in like I did last week. So I didn't have the opportunity to work out and take a couple of shits before the weigh-in, like I did last week. I was planning on dragging my ass out of bed this morning, but that didn't quite happen. So even though I was confident, I was still a little nervous. Down 3 pounds! I was so relieved and happy to see that number. I'm officially one half a pound from being under 300 pounds for the probably the first time in about 5 years. One half pound away from losing 25lbs total. I'm well ahead of the 2lb per week average. Who knows, if I keep this up, I might hit 35lbs lost before Hawaii. Hopefully next week I'll be able to drop below the 300 mark!

Missing out on the worms

There were somethings that did happen this morning, and then there were some things that didn't happen this morning. My alarm DID go off at 5:30am. I DID wake up when it went off. I DID hit snooze allowing 10 more minutes of sleep. The alarm DID go off again at 5:40am. I DID wake up again and shut it off. I DID NOT however get out of bed until almost 7am to get ready for work. So I DID NOT make it to the gym this morning before weigh in. Wonder how that will effect the weigh in??

Runnin' Man

I had to workout during my lunch today since we had plans to attend a local college basketball game tonight. It was the first time I've worked out at work in a while. I'm not going to lie, I wasn't looking forward to it. I've been so spoiled at the gym by using the elliptical, that I wasn't really looking forward to getting back on the treadmill. But, ya gotta put the work in to see the results, so I jumped on the treadmill again. One of the reasons for not liking the treadmill is that I tend to get shin splints about 5 minutes into it, so I can't go as fast as I'd like. Not today. I hopped on and did all but 5 minutes of the workout on 3.5 speed. Let me just explain that the last time I was working out on the treadmill, the fastest I could go was 3.0, then the shin splints would start and I'd have to scale it back to 2.5 or even 2.3. Not today! I was at 3.5 almost the whole workout and it was very comfortable. Not one shin was splinted, I felt great for the 2nd workout in a row! I felt so good that with 3 minutes left of the workout, I was about 85 calories away from hitting 600, so I bumped the speed up to 5 and ran the last 3 minutes!!! That's right, you heard me, I fucking ran...and it wasn't a light jog, I was running, like someone was chasing me and I could have kept going for longer...it felt that good and I hit 600 calories for the workout. Guess there has been a little progress! Now the true test will be to see if I can walk in the morning. Right now I still feel pretty good. I'm even planning on hitting the gym in the morning BEFORE work to get one last workout in before weigh-in tomorrow morning. I'll let you know how that goes, wish me luck!

PAID IN FULL

Today was the day. The final payment for Hawaii was submitted. It's all paid for baby. Now all we've got to do is get the fuck outta dodge! I'm so excited I can't stand it. We are almost at a month away! It can't come too soon. I've worked pretty hard to get ready, and I know that I've got a lot farther to go. Focus on the sun. Focus on the sand. Focus on the relaxation.

Digging Out

Sorry, it's been a couple of days since the last post but we've been keeping busy. We finally got dug out from all the fucking snow on Christmas and it felt good to get back into the gym yesterday (Monday). I was going to post something last night, but by the time we got home from the gym and I thought about it, I was already in bed. Better late than never. But I think taking the couple of days off over the Christmas break (other than shoveling all the damn snow) did my body good. I felt great at the gym last night. A very strong 45 minutes on the elliptical (for those of you keeping score, no, Santa didn't bring me one of my very own, but it was last minute, I understand). I actually went 3.25 miles instead of the usual 3, so that's pretty awesome. I think the best think to come out of it was the fact I missed going to the gym and I was really looking forward to getting back into the rhythms of working out on a regular basis. I also think I might have solved the nipple chafing issue, thanks to the armor that goes under (wink, wink). Got new work out headphones and new work out shoes for Christmas and the headphones work like a charm. I haven't tried the shoes yet cause there is still a little life in the ones I'm currently using. But all in all, it was a good just to be out of the house and moving again. There's that momentum again, can you dig it?

Have yourself....

a Merry Little Christmas! We are currently buried under a foot of snow and 50mph winds creating the drifts from hell. So we are staying in and taking the day off from the world. Hawaii can't come soon enough.

Dear Santa,

Dear Santa,

Hello! It's me, Fatty Boom Batty! How are you? I am fine. I bet you are real busy getting ready for your big trip tonight. How are the elves? Don't work them too hard, ha ha. I just wanted to tell you that I've been a good boy this year and have been working out really hard the last couple of months (64 days to be exact). If you could find room in your sleigh for a tiny little present for me it would be the best Christmas ever! I like to call it "God's gift to fat kids," but it's also know as the Precor AMT100i. I've enclosed a picture, just to prevent any confusion.


Have a safe trip!

Love,
Fatty Boom Batty

#50

Here we are, the 50th post! Holy shit I don't believe it! I also don't believe I was up and at the gym this morning before 8am, on Christmas Eve to boot! Out of the last 7 days, I've hit the gym 4 of them. Not too shabby. Here's to hoping that the next 50 posts have as much good news and progress the last 50 had.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it....

I had all best intentions. I really did. Yesterday I got out of work early and wanted to hit the gym before the plans we had last night. I got delayed at work and leaving at 2:30 turned into leaving at 3:30. I'm off work the next few days for the holidays, so I literally stood at my desk and did one last once over to make sure I didn't forget anything. I got to my car in the parking lot and realized that my workout bag was still sitting on my desk. Grrrr. So I went back in and got it and hauled ass to the gym. My usual routine is 45 minutes worth of cardio. Time was running short so I only did 30 minutes. But I still did it, I still went to the gym and still did 30 minutes. Then this morning, I wanted to be up, to the gym and home by 9AM. 9:20 I drag my ass out of bed. I had a couple of things to do for work then hit the gym and did an hour on the elliptical. The extra 15 minutes was for the 15 I missed out on the night before. So by the time I got home showered and stepped on the scale, I was starving. But I am happy to report down 4 more pounds! So that's 21.5 pounds down in 9 weeks! Ahead of the 2lb per week average! Only 6 more weeks until we hit the sands of Hawaii!! We are supposed to get just shit on with snow the next day or two. Initial reports were 15 inches after 2 inches of ice...gotta love the Midwest!

Sportsbro

It has been documented before that I have an "ample man bosom," and I seem to be having nipple issues, mainly chafing. Being on the elliptical causes a lot of up and down movement, which causes some "jiggling." Fine, I can deal with that; it comes with the territory, I get it. After Friday's workout I was in quite a bit of discomfort and when I hopped in the shower, it felt like someone had put out a cigar on each nipple when the water hit them. So I thought, how can I stop this from happening. Old Fatty Boom Batty would have just stopped working out. I thought maybe they just need to be toughened up, but that feels like it would be a long, gruesome processed. Then I thought band-aids, not an option, there would be significant hair removal. We needed to contain jiggle as much as possible, so for Saturday morning's workout I put on an XL t-shirt to act as some sort of redneck sportsbro...I guess it's better than using duct tape to secure the jiggle. But instead, I poured myself into this t-shirt hoping that the "guys" would be secure. It worked for about the first 30 minutes, but as the sportsbro became saturated with sweat, it loosened its grip and that familiar burning sensation came back. So I guess the next step is the band-aid method. I know it's not pretty, it's not glamorous, but this path is an ugly one and you've got to trudge through some shit to make it to the end goal. I'm just reporting on it, I can't make this stuff up. Yes, this post is about chafed nipples on a fat hairy guy, get over it, I did.

Saturday Morning

Every once in a while you hit the zone. Everything clicks into place and you are in total harmony with your surroundings. I was lucky enough to experience it this morning. I hit the perfect positioning and it was the best I've felt in a long time. I would shut my eyes and the next thing I know 20 minutes would pass by, it was awesome! Then my wife came in to wake me up to go to the gym and I had to get out of the most comfortable position ever. But I did get up and I did go to the gym.

Chalk one up for the good guys

Well, I ended up at the gym. I figured, usually I'm bitching about not having enough time during the day to fit a workout in, that I should probably take advantage of the open afternoon. I also decided to do 60 minutes today just to spice it up. In the back of my head I was thinking, I'll put 60, but if I'm tired at 45 I'll stop. It's easier to enter 60 and stop at 45 rather than entering 45 then having to reprogram another 15 minutes. Everything clicked today. I felt great. I just shut my eyes and focused. It was just me, the music and the sweat. I think I might have had an out of body experience. I visualized myself running through the streets of a city into an open field and I was hauling balls. I opened my eyes to towel off and take a swig of water, and there was only 15 minutes left. I couldn't believe it! It felt like I just got on. So I hammered out the last 15 minutes and called it a day. Pretty good work out if I do say so myself.

Decisions, decisions....

I'm getting out of work in 10 minutes and will have the afternoon free. What should I do? I can hit the gym so that way it's done and out of the way since I won't have time later tonight to go. Or I can go home and relax a bit. Fire up the gaming system or watch a movie, shit, I could even take a nap! What to do what to do....

Damn the Pecan

It was touch and go with the toffee, but I've got it secured in my stocking cap and stuffed in my backpack, untouched thank you very much. Out of sight out of mind. Onto the next challenge. Until about 5 years ago, I've never had pecan pie. Couldn't tell you why, I had just never tried it. I wasn't much of a pie person, unless it was French Silk. But apple, cherry, banana, lemon meringue, you name it, I wasn't interested. Then the holiday lunch happened at work. I had just started with the company a few months before, so this was my first experience with the holiday lunch. It was a spread with prime rib, two kinds of potatoes, salad, bread, veggies and of course dessert. I loaded up my plate like I was getting food for a refugee I had stored under my desk. I then hit the dessert table and it was all pie. It was free so I thought what the hell, worse case I take a bite and toss it if I didn't like it. I chose pecan cause the thought of pumpkin pie makes the back of my throat water. The first bite was like your first taste of heroin. My eyes rolled back in my head and my legs went numb. I was hooked. Pecan pie was the shit! Flash forward to today, holiday lunch day. It has become a tradition for me to only have pecan pie this one day of the year. I look forward to it every year. Today was the day. I'll admit, I was looking forward to it, but also nervous about it. I successfully dodged the toffee bullet, but this holiday meal was a landmine that's been tripped and ready to blow. It helped that the prime rib was fatty, I didn't eat a lot of it. Got the whipped sweet potatoes instead of the twice baked potato. Completely passed over the cheese manicotti. Got the green beans and passed on the carrots. The server actually asked if I would like a second plate for more food?!?! Really?!?! I declined and passed on the salad since that would have required a second plate. Then came the dessert table. Literally plates of pie for as far as the eye could see. I found the smallest piece of pecan (it's a tradition, can't break tradition) and went to sit down. I told myself at the beginning, I was going to get a small piece and cut it in half. I stuck to my guns and did splurge but I think I refrained accordingly.



Yes I did eat the bigger half. But in the grand scheme of things I'm OK with that. And in all actuality, the pie wasn't even that good! It's like a movie you watched when you were a kid and you just loved it, but you watch it now and think to yourself, "what in the hell was I thinking? This is terrible!" I didn't even finish the whole 1/2 slice! I think I'm officially over pecan pie.

Wolves at the door.

I can't talk above a whisper cause I don't want them to hear me. I don't have much time. I can't make any sudden moves. Right now I'm trapped at my desk, motionless. I can feel their wee-beady eyes on me. Don't. Move. The "they" I speak of is a little Christmas box chock full of little pieces of homemade toffee, much like a heath or sk0r bar would be, placed on my desk by a thoughtful co-worker. I've had this toffee before....and it was good, really good, like push-old-women-and-children-out-of-the-way-to-get-some good. I don't know what to do, I can't let them see me. Once they do it's over. Maybe if I can distract them and shove them in my backpack....I have to time it just right. ohshittheyseemeIgottago....

Constant Reminders

It has been a good week. Yes there was the first official snow storm dumping over 8 inches of snow on us. Yes there was the constant barrage of "holiday goodies" (for the love of pants, will someone please get all the fucking cheesecakes out of the freezer?!?!) Yes I was only able to make it to the gym a couple of times this week. But we are under 50 days, 7 weeks left and then it's sun and sand. That is what I focused on. The morning after this post, my wife asked me if I really wrote the calories on each kiss. I said, "you betcha!" She then asked if it was because I wouldn't be able to remember that each kiss was 23 calories. I do have shit for memory, but that's not the reason. The reason for me is that I want to know every time I pick one up and see that 23 on there, I know what I'm putting in my body. I need a constant reminder. For the last 35 years, I haven't really been thinking, I've just been eating. There are consequences for everything I eat and each 23 I see reminds me of that. There were days when I had trouble eating to my full calories. One night we were even able to go to a burrito place and have a fat ass burrito and chips. But I had to do the research first and get all the calorie info figured out and I kept track of what I was eating and I logged it all. I was low on calories that day, so that granted me the opportunity to splurge a bit without going nuts. My goodness, only 7 weeks left. We are over half way done! It seemed like an eternity away when this started 8 weeks ago and it will be here before I know it. Keep your eyes on the prize Fatty Boom Batty, you are almost there.

Fightin' but not writin'.....

Unlike what you've seen on the news, I am not taking an "indefinite hiatus" from the this little experiment in weight reduction. It's just that time of year. I've been fighting but not writing. Still going to the gym when possible. Last night I totally flaked out and didn't go. It's been witch's-tit-cold here and that makes it hard. Still watching the intake and counting the calories of EVERYTHING. Still trying to not partake in the holiday food fiasco. Just today, I was at the freezer at work and grabbed my 300 calorie frozen meal as it sat next to a stack of holiday personal cheesecakes. I'm still doing it. I just haven't taken the time to sit down and write about it. I will leave you with this little golden nugget; Current temp outside my window, 10 degrees. Current temp in Oahu, 81 degrees.

Tis the Season Round 2

You have got to be fucking kidding me....I got these two emails at work today, literally 2 minutes apart:

Email #1:

Hello everyone-

I brought in 8 mini cheesecakes today. They are in the freezer over by the coffee maker. I will bring in more on Monday and Tuesday. (I don’t want to take over the whole freezer).

Please take one today before you go! First come, first served! Cheesecake will keep very well in your freezer for over a month.

PS For those of you new to the group, this is my Christmas present to all of you. Please take one home!

Merry Christmas!

Dave

Email #2:

Sorry for the late notice, but if you are interested, I’d like to see if we have enough people to do a cookie exchange over the lunch hour on Friday 12/18. I believe last year, each person brought 3-4 dozen cookies. Once we have a total head count, I will sent additional details. Please feel forward to invite others who may be interested!

Fa-la-la-la-la-la-fuck-ing-la. Yesterday I just gave the canister of chocolate and "special glaze" soaked popcorn to a friend, today I just won't walk by the freezer (if it was legal to marry a food, my Christmas cards would be sent out with "Holiday Wishes from the Cheesecakes!"--yes I would take on the Cheesecakes last name, that's how whipped I'd be by it, and if it's like a toffee/chocolate cheesecake-forget about it) for the rest of the day and I'll delete the invite for the cookie exchange. It's only 14 days to Christmas and then hopefully this barrage of holiday calorie explosion will be over. Hopefully.

Tis the Season

With all the recent snow that's been dumped on us, I got into the office early this morning to avoid any traffic. As I was booting up my computer a couple of people from my department were delivering some holiday goodies to every one's desks before they got in. Every single person in our department go a 22 oz container of chocolate drizzled clusters of almonds, pecans and popcorn covered in an "amazing glaze." It looks like one of those fireworks that fires off 160 shots, but instead it's chocolaty popcorn "glazed" goodness. 20 servings per container, 160 calories per serving. If I ate the whole container 3200 calories...Half the container 1600 calories. They are bringing the war to my front door. These containers were put on every one's desks. It's like driving to your AA meeting and seeing a bar advertising free shots. The tests just keep coming. Being couped up for the past 2 days and all the snow and stress of this time of year, it would make me feel better to rip into this canister like there was a million dollars at the bottom. But would it though? My mind is telling me that it would. My addiction is running on all cylinders, trying to get to me crack the seal. I have a measuring cup in my desk (don't ask) so I could easily dish out a serving or two. Could I stop at a serving or two? I pick it up in my hand, it's heavy, must be all the calories. It's heft reminds me that I'm trying to decrease my heft. Focus on the goal, the sun, the sand, the comfortable 8hr plane ride, not crammed into the seat like some overstuffed pillow stuffed a cubbyhole. I'm not going to lie, it's tempting as fuck, but I will refrain (for now). Nice try, but not this time.

Snowed In....

Feeling very blah today. We've been snowed in our house for two days now. Starting to burn the furniture for warmth. 8 short weeks away...56 days away from Hawaii. Days like today I have to focus on it more than ever. Weighed in today, down 1/2 a pound. I think we might need a new scale...the first couple of times I stepped on it, it said 264.5, which would have been awesome, but then that would mean I lost 46.5lbs in one week and that doesn't seem quite possible...so I waited a bit and then stepped on again and I'm down 1/2 a pound. Not quite 46 but I'll take it. Got to focus on the good stuff. I'm so tired of fucking snow and blowing cold ass wind I can't stand it.

Motivation

I thought that since we are officially under two months from departure, let's take a minute and regroup.....It's currently 18 degrees outside my window, with the wind it feels like 9 degrees. There are 3 inches of snow already on the ground and we are supposed to get another 6 inches tonight. Then the blizzard-like winds are going to start tomorrow night and the high is supposed to top out at 10. As if I didn't have enough motivation already. There comes a little voice from deep within, kind of small at first, but it grows in power (like Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings), "Keep your eye on the prize Fatty Boom Batty. As you are bundling up to go to the gym the next three days, keep the goal in site. Don't let a little chill in the air and some white stuff on the ground prevent you from busting your ass. For this is what you have to look forward to..."

In GaGa We Trust

I've got just about every type of music on my workout playlist on my iP0d. Hip Hop. Gangsta Hip Hop. Cock Rock. Metal. Rap/Metal Fusion. Justin Timberland. Johnny Cash. You name it. What is my favorite? Well my friends, right now I can't get enough of Lady GaGa. During my last workout at the gym, I was huffing along and one of her songs came on and it was like a shot a lightning to me. I was pumped and my pace increased. I can get motivated by the "this is what goes on in the mind of a lunatic"s or the "beautiful people, the beautiful people"s or the "killing in the name of"s and the "bringing sexy back"s even the "gimme fuel, gimme fire, gimme that which I desire"s, but there's something about her "groove slam work it back, filter that, baby bump that track" or her having fun cause the beat is sick and her wanting to take a ride on the disco stick that get me moving. Hello, my name is Fatty Boom Batty and I'm a fan of Lady GaGa. Proud to say it, a big fat hairy fan.

Calorie Nazi

So I've officially become that guy that looks at the nutritionals of EVERYTHING. Since I've started keeping track, I've become relentless. I've got an app on my Crackberry that helps me keep a daily log of what I've eaten and the caloric value. I've got another app that helps me look up caloric info of foods if no nutrition labels are available. I've become that annoying guy that emails restaurants asking for their nutritional information if it's not available online. If I don't know the calories, I won't eat it, plain and simple. I've become a Calorie Nazi. We had a meeting after church and there was food out for the meeting, all I had was water. I've started driving the people around me nuts when we eat. I have to know what the calories are, or I won't eat it. The other day at work, everyone got a little stocking with chocolates in it. There were mini III Musketeers, mini Ree$e'$ PB cups, and a bar of solid Ru$$el $t0ver'$ chocolate in the stocking. Luckily the nutritionals were on the bar of chocolate, 310 calories for the whole bar. I took out my trusty $harpie and wrote 310 on the packaging. Then I divided the bar into eighths, by drawing 7 equal-distant lines on the box with my $harpie...that's 39 calories per section. Breaking it down into baby steps, my friends. I went online and found that there are 24 calories in the mini III Musketeers and 38 calories per Peanut Butter Cup. Again, the magic number written in $harpie on the packaging. My wife brought home a bag of Almond K!sses and has them sitting in a crystal Christmas tree bowl as part of the holiday decorations. 23 calories each and yes, I took 10 minutes to write "23" on every single Kiss in that bowl and the remaining smooches still in the bag in the drawer. The more you know the more you can prepare. All I want to know is how many calories are in it...that's all, not too hard to ask. Every good mission starts with reconnaissance...and a $harpie.

Output > Input

So the "aha moment" for me in this journey came during a discussion with a friend of mine. He's seriously one of the smartest people I know, if not the smartest. He's a doctor, for Christ's sake. We were talking about losing weight; what he's been doing; what I've been doing, etc. This discussion came about 4 weeks into my journey and to be honest I was swinging in the dark hoping to hit something. I was trying to get more active and then watch what I was cramming into my mouth, but you can see from the early part of the blog, it was very hit and miss. He was saying it's all about how many calories your body needs on a daily basis. I know, what you are going to say, "Well no shit, that sounds simple, right?" Yes, it's a very well known concept, but I wasn't really paying that much attention to the number of calories I was taking in. Sure I thought I was eating healthier, and I was, but I was still not gauging was I was taking in. So I did a little research and came across this article that shed a lot of light. It also allowed me to figure my BMR, which is the daily amount of calories I need to have for my body. Your body will roughly use 60% of your daily calorie intake just to fuel the necessities, like breathing and such. So I figured my BMR by the following formula:

Men:
66 + (6.3 x weight in pounds) + (12.9 x height in inches) - (6.8 x age in years)

And that let me know that if I wanted to maintain my current weight, I needed to have around 2700 calories/day. If I cut out 500 calories/day I will average about a pound a week loss and if I'm exercising and burning an additional 500 calories/day, that will give me my 2 lb per week average.

Quick side note for all my female reader (yes it's singular, I'll be shocked if there's more-but I digress) here is the formula for the ladies:

Women:
655 + (4.3 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years)

So anywho, I decided to try and only consume 2000-2200 calories per day and continue to work out. When I work out at the gym, I'm averaging about 650 calories burned per 45 minutes, so the workouts are right where I need them to be, it's just getting my calorie intake figured out.

Last week was the first week I've really kept track and I was down 4lbs so something is working. It's all about keeping track of what you are putting in your mouth (insert joke here, go ahead, I teed it up for ya, swing away....I'll wait....you done?) whether it's counting calories or working on a point system. I find the better I keep track the better I do. When I lost all the weight before I was doing "Girth Gazers" and they have a point system, again as a way if keeping track of what you are consuming. You get so many points per day and everything has a point value based on the the "Girth Gazer" formula. So it's really six of one half dozen of the other, whatever floats your boat. Figure what your output needs to be and then adjust your output, no matter what the input is, just write that shit down.

Have Scale Will Travel...

First and foremost, sorry for the delay in postings. It's been a crazy couple of days and I was going to do some posts from my Crackberry, but what can I say, I'm lazy.

Yesterday marked officially being 9 weeks away from Hawaii. Holy shit, single digits! So that meant a weigh in. Now for a little back story; yesterday we were about 150 miles from home on a quick overnight getaway for a concert. My wife asked me if I was going to weigh in early or what I was going to do. I said, well, we can just take the scale with us, and that's what we did. Why not right? Officially down 4 lbs for the week! Yeah, buddy. I've got a system down, it will be shared in a later post (like the next one). But it feels good to see that number drop!
