The Goal

After losing a significant amount of weight, I have gained 1/3 of it back. It's my goal to lose the weight and keep it off. I want to also find myself in the process and to develop a healthy lifestyle.

New Name, New Goals, New Life.

This morning I completed my very first 10K in 1 hour and 19 minutes. Even though I was in the back of the pack, I am just very happy I finished something that ended my goal over a 6 month process. I have now changed this blog in order to bring some more life and motivation for me to post everyday. I am now calling this blog "ello Muscles" after my English friend who calls me this whenever he sees me.

I have new goals for this new journey which are:

1. Weigh 180 pounds
2. Muscle Definition
3. Six Pack Abs [I know...I am very ambitious]


I also want to complete one of my goals from the last goals I had:

1. Weigh under 200 lbs [DONE]
2. Lose my gut [DONE]
3. Do 1 pull-up


So I need to finish that goal as well. After 187 days since I have started I can now see how much work I have put into this crazy journey and am starting to realize that this is a lifestyle. My father today told me that a person recovering from alcoholism will always be surrounded by alcohol, but it's the will power that keeps the person from relapsing. The same goes with food. It's all about will power to keep away from bad food. My mother keeps asking me how much I weigh, and I told her this today, "it doesn't matter how much I weigh, but how I feel" So from now on, this blog has been blessed with a new life.

Self Improvement: Diet Soda

I need to stop drinking Diet Soda. The aspartame [sugar substitute] that is in the soft drink is researched to damage your liver over a long period of time. Not only that but the aspartame also increases your craving sensory in the brain, basically making you want sweet and sugary. So what I need to work on this week is to not drink any soda.
