Keeping My Wits About Me
Today’s Weigh In: 331.8 pounds
Days Till Goal: 24
Pounds To Go: 11.8
Alright people, here we go for round two! This week’s been an interesting one, more so along the lines of adjusting to my new workplace and schedule as an 8-5 cubical guy. My old job in the nonprofit / ministry world was really, really flexible in terms of its hours and scheduling.
That aspect of the job was a double edged sword, as I could always arrange my schedule and make time for errands or hang out times with friends, but there was ALWAYS work to be done. On the other hand, I’m done with work at 5:00pm and that’s it (not counting my freelancing on the side) – no worrying about it late at night or having random events in the evening or weekends or having to spend a lot of time preparing for a sermon or worship set.
And so, it’s actually a really positive thing for my weight loss work (and cash flow – ha!). I’ve got a set schedule that I am learning to easily stick to.
My eating’s been good and on track, if not 100% to the level it should be in regards to my macronutrient goals. But the calories are where they should be, and I’ve recovered from the anomaly of the twelve chicken wings which caused the five pound bump this past Sunday.
So, if I keep my head on right and my wits about me, I should be able to get into the 320s next week. However, every time I’ve made mention of my progress this month, I end up dropping the ball soon thereafter. But not this time!
New FAT Coalition Members:
Some of my fellow bloggers who are a part of the FAT Coalition may have seen some comments from a fresh face going by the name of “RodeDaddy.” He’s blogging through his own weight loss journey, too, and could use the support the Coalition is known to give (along with the verbal butt-kickings we all need from time to time, too!)
Check out his own blog, Waste the Waist, and give him a FAT Coalition welcome!
