236 – It Was A Really Bad Month

Things are not good. You may not know it to look at the number in front of today’s post but I’m here to tell you that they’re really, really not good. I woke up yesterday and I saw 240 on the scale. Granted that was after a night of drinking and eating poorly, but it was a far cry from where I want to be.

I feel like shit. My heartburn is back with a vengeance. I’m snoring. I honestly feel like I’m going to drop dead any day. And that’s a scary thought. The wife and I watched Forks Over Knives the other night which is a documentary where researchers explore the possibility that people changing their diets from animal-based to plant-based can help eliminate or control diseases like cancer and diabetes. I’ve got to be honest with you. Even though I’ve always been a big fan of low carb dieting and truly believe it’s my way to long term weight loss… I’m seriously considering going vegetarian / vegan. It’s an incredibly compelling documentary and let’s face it… what I’m doing isn’t working. I need a change.

We’re just over a month away from WrestleMania. This is a big weekend for me as I get to see my college room mate for the weekend. During that weekend any sort of “good eating” goes right out the window. With that said, I really need to make sure that I give myself a good head start. I need to lose weight. I desperately want to lose weight. I’m at the end of the road.
