MR. CLEAN'S goal

<< < (6/9) > >>

MR. CLEAN:
OK... Now its getting Frustrating.  I have lost a fair amount of size, noticed in the fact that I am back into my closet putting away the larger sizes and rockin' the Good Gear.  But weight wise, I have remained stationary.  I am two weeks out of getting REALLY pissed.  I drink gallons of Water, I gave up Beer [do something like that & you really want to see results!]...  Cut down on the late night snacking.  I Workout every morning.  Now its come to the point that I am having to give up the last thing that I wanted to, Bread.  Man, I love the fact that I look better, but f**k... I just want the scale to dip down to my old wrestling weight.  I work so hard.  It just gets to you. 
Back to the workout.  I should just relax, maybe its just the stress.

YOSP:
Be patient brother, the fact that you have a goal and are sticking to it is great in and of itself. I gave up drinking too, it does suck because thats all my friends do, so other than that I don't need them, ha j/k. But I don't have to worry about spending the next day feeling like dookie.

You'll get to where you want to be, and when you do you will appreciate it more, and so will the ladies  O0 O0

Keep it up, I have been working out for about 10yrs and just took off for about 6mos for various reasons (none were good though), and I feel 100% better, more energy, less stress and over more optimistic towards things...

Being SLY helps too! :*)) :*))

MR. CLEAN:
Yosp, I hear you 100%.  I am trying to stay positive.  It is not that I have not been seeing results, I mean if it is any indication that I have lost a good amount of Body Fat % and have put on some muscle, its the fact that the ladies are saying that I am looking better than ever, in combo with the fact that I have yet to loose really a solid pound.  Still bouncing at around 233-235.  Its hard when you feel great about loosing the Fat, but then you jump on the scale and the results [from the scale] that you have been going for are just not coming.  I have finally given up the Bread.  Now I am basically on Corn Tortillas (isn't that bad, I am Hispanic so its not a hard change from what I grew up with) & White meats.  That and Cereal in the morning.  I have cut back on the meals, from four to five to a solid three, with one apple cut up to be snacked on through the day as I get cravings for something.  Still running, Biking, & Lifting.  I am hoping that with the final sacrifice that I had yet to make [giving up bread], that the lbs will finally start falling off. 
Lets see, I have given up:
SODA/ENERGY DRINKS
CARBINATED DRINKS
BREAD
BEER
ALCOHOL
FAST FOOD
FATTY FOOD

I:
WORK OUT CONSISTANTLY & HARD
I AM DRINKING IN EXCESS OF 1&1/2 GALLONS OF WATER PER DAY
I DO NOT OWN A CAR, SO I BIKE EVERYWHERE [IN EXCESS OF 1 HOUR A DAY]

Its just hard.  Some can give up half of what I have and loose the weight.  I guess this is just one of those tests that the lord is putting me through to see how much I want the Coast Guard.  Well, I will give up everything to get to the Coast...

I am resolved.  What does not kill me makes me stronger.  I will just work harder, & let the dissappointment fuel me in the gym.  Just got to relax, Stress is a factor for weight gain [maybe a factor for weight retention]. 

MR. CLEAN:
Thanks for the Backup Yosp... All Ya'll have helped me keep stable, Its appreciated... If I run into you in my travels, I owe you a Beer  :*)) :*)) :*))

YOSP:
You will get there brother...

Ever consider eating small meals every 2-3hrs? It is a good way to help with your metabolism...

Also, I would only step on the scale once a month or even every other month, the scale can make you discouraged... :x! :x!

Good Luck.  $#!zzle
