Welcome Day 1

Before I begin with the topic for these 100 days I wanted to talk a bit about the format and my inspiration.  My beautiful wife Happy began a Facebook posting daily called #Happys100happydays which gave me the idea of trying to do something for 100 days and then blog about each one. A lot can change in 100 days and I wanted to try this out but I did not want to use Facebook.

The reason why is my topic.  100 days of weight loss.  I have never liked when people put their eating habits or workout routines on Facebook or Twitter because I do not care about how many miles you ran or biked or your caloric intake for the day.  So I did not want to be that guy.  Hence Blogging.  If you want to read about it go for it but this way I am making it public without throwing in everyone's face.

Few things first.  I am not a huge guy by my standards but I would like to lose as much weight as healthily possible in 100 days and what better way to document my journey than with a blog.  So this is day 1.  The format for each day is simple.  I will highlight exactly what I ate so far at least.  My workout for the day and every Sunday document my results in weight.  I should take pictures as well but maybe next week.  Few things as well.  I do not work out on Sundays....I figured I should get one rest day a week and why not the Sabbath.

So how about a baseline.  Today I weigh 221.8 pounds.  I know I am a fat ass.  My goal is to get south of 200 in 100 days... really my ultimate goal is 175 but I do not know how healthy 50 pounds is in 100 days.  Who knows maybe it can be.  As far as what I ate today....Nothing for breakfast....I know I should eat breakfast but I didn't.  After church about two handfuls of almonds and then when I got home I had leftovers from Whole Foods which consisted of about three fork fulls of pulled pork, sauerkraut, half of one kielbasa sausage, wild rice with vegetables and a tall water.  I know it was heavy on the carbs and fat but I need to kill those leftovers before they went bad.  I will update on dinner and tomorrow's meals tomorrow.  June 16th, 2014 hear I come.
