Riddle Me This Fatman…
Things have been absolutely crazy lately hence my lack of posting. We’re in the midst of moving so we’ve been staying with my in-laws since mid-October. My scale is packed away and will be retrieved when we move into our new home 12/16 ish. That said, I haven’t been weighing myself since mid-October as I like to be consistent with the scale I’m using.
I can only imagine what the number would be if I were to step on that scale today. Since living at the in-laws I haven’t been eating bad necessarily, but I haven’t been eating good either. Not only that, but November / December are prime drinking months from a work / social perspective. So… between the fact that I’ve been not really worrying about what I’m eating, been snacking on pretzels and other carbs that my father-in-law has around the house and drinking more than normal I’ve come to a simple conclustion without even stepping on the scale… I’m fat.
Starting today (yes, I know I’ve said it before) I’m severely cutting carbs. Last night I could tell my blood pressure was running high. Wife told me I’m puffed and she can see the fat around my neck / belly. I’ve been “dizzy” for the last couple of days though I think I can probably attribute most / some of that to sinus issues that are ongoing.
It’s time… The goal was 220 by December. I don’t have my scale to verify, but I think it’s fair to say that I didn’t get there. Need to shift the goal (and focus) out a bit. Goal is now 220 by WrestleMania 31 which is 102 days away as of this post. Go time.
