Yes... I made it passed the 200 lbs. mark

Yes… I made it passed the tough 200 pound mark today.

Okay, I had to lean a little on the scale and I did wait a little longer to weigh in at 11:30am. But, as the scale reads:

Aug. 11, 2006 11:30am JASON 199.8 26.6%

It will be interesting for me to see what this weekend does. We are expecting company and I am expecting to eat a lot of food! Hopefully it will not be to much to get back down by mid next week, before we leave for our vacation.

I did manage to get some swimming in and finally a squash match. Hopefully the squash will become regular when we get back from vacation.

Closing in on 200

Well, this week has been up and down. On Wednesday, I was 200.6. This was the lowest I have been in some time. Unfortunately on Thursday my eating schedule went all wrong and I ate much later in the day. I have been working out with weights (usually 10x12x60 lbs. this week) and swimming (avg 64x25 m). I also fill in on the off days with walking. I have still been able to stay away from most packaged food. My brother provided us with vegetables from his garden which are all but gone today, but this really helped with keeping up on the greens. This morning I my weight is:

5-Aug-2006 10:00am JASON 202.4 29.8%

Still much too high in the body fat percentage. I have been staying away from eating meat not really on purpose, it is just not top of mind. I think this is good. I do focus in on protein though and us beans to fill in.
