Journey to a six-pack

Revamp
So today I decided to switch gears on how I will execute this blog. I feel like I'm entering a endless cycle of regret and failure. Most of witch has to do with my lack in drive or will power. The rest has to do with the way I'm writing my journey. This is not for you guys to feel bad for every time I screw up. It's more for those who have tried it all and really want to see how others do it. I have done it before. So I am capable. In the past I lost around 80 pounds. Though I did it in ways I do not want to repeat, it was done however. So what I'll do now is as each challenge comes up, like when my grumbling stomach is raging for food, I'll show what and how to evade lt. I can say it won't be easy for me. Though like a good buddy of mine keeps telling me, "talk is cheap" and the only way to show is to do. So I'm done with this constant quitting and ill be starting with a new fire. This time it will stick. Without a doubt it will stick.
Relaxing day #2
Today was just another day of rest and relaxation. After returning home from Boston at 5 am rest was all I needed. And it was surely appreciated. My body really enjoyed the vacation. I could feel the tense muscles melt into submission. I did quite well today. Breakfast I ate some eggs and few prices of bread. Lunch, rice and chicken. That's where the healthy stopped and the unhealthy crept in. For dinner I ended up eating a Wendy's chicken sandwich and fries. Though other than that It was pretty smooth. Tomorrow is where the fire begins. And the dedication and hard work comes in. I promise not to let you guys down this time. Most importantly I promise not to let myself down. With that said its time to say good night. Sweet dreams.

Complicated schedule of a busy man
So today I took an unexpected vacation. After a long night of yoga I had to wake up at 5 Am to set off for bean town. Thank god I wasn't driving.
While taking a restful sleep my father was whizzing us toward a relaxing vacation. The charming scenery of Boston melted away the stress. Now I didn't, unfortunately, complete today's P90x workout. Though I surely worked out a lot. The walking around the city and the general goofing around sure made up for the loss of a day. I seem to have developed a strain on my left shoulder and collarbone. Maybe yesterday's yoga was more than my body could handle. Though I'm sure it's just the regular strain. In any case, I managed to do somewhat good today. With coffee and a "nature valley" Bar for breakfast. A grilled cheese and fresh chips for lunch. Lastly chicken and string beans for dinner. It may not be the most fascinating day out of the list of days to come. But I promises you the days are ahead. Things will get more in depth. And as I find certain things to keep the beast of hunger at bay I will share my secrets. I still have some tricks up my sleeves. So stay tuned. Good night.

"Back with a vengeance"
Whoa, today was great. All the way to the end. I woke up eat a bowl of cereal. And just continued to lick my wounds and try to fight off this cold. Then towards the end of the day I had a good Spanish meal (Rice, beans, and chicken). Then it was followed with a good session of yoga. Where my sister and I really brought it. I also took out the famous Stephen king "IT" yoga block. Then I just cleared my mind. It was fantastic. My body and mind seemed to unify itself into the soul. I always love to workout. Though brining myself to do it is tough. I'm not sure why,but it's always a struggle. Anyway today was great! Looking for more days like this.

I have to take a knee..
I know this is not the most fascinating blog out there. I also know that I'm not the most determined person in the world. And tough I'm in good condition to workout. I decided to hold off today. I needed to lick my wounds. My cold is creeping up on me. Which, in my experience, just worsens with vigorous exercise. So I took a rest today. It didn't help that I totally went ape on my diet. But I digress. With that said, I will do like my "pal" tony horton always recommends. Which is take a break if you need it. Then come back with a vengeance. That is exactly what I'm going to do. No excuses, no maybes. No more messing around. Im going to be 100% committed. Now talk is cheap. Which means only action will prove to myself and you that I mean what I say. So I'm going to finish my rest day. Hopefully I'm better tomorrow, then I would return to business. For now I take my sleep now that I can get it. And return again tomorrow. Good night
So I was reminded...
Why I wanted to work out early in the first place. Holy f**king sh*t. Excuse my language. That morning rush was ten fold after putting off that workout until the last possible second. I had to quickly shave (which is not recommended), take a shower, breakfast and rush out the door. Mind you when I left I was 20 minutes behind schedule. I had to punch it dodging traffic like a madman. All you heard that afternoon was my aftermarket muffler shouting down the service road. Which caught its own perils outside of police attention. Like other people looking to race me. I mean c'mon! Really? Of all times you want to race in the middle of rush hour while everyone including myself is trying to get to work. Moreover after successfully evading several near accidents I made to work. With five minutes to spear. Granted I was a mess with my hair, shirt, and face a total wreck. Not to mention my heart was still racing from the workout. Though at least I was there. Later on I demolished my simple lunch of rice with chopped lettuce. Then headed home. There I suddenly began to unravel all the hard work I did this morning. And it all started with a pot of rice. I don't know, it's like my body has been accustomed to eating after work. Or maybe I really was hungry. Either way I started eating and didn't look back. First was a small pot of rice, about a cups worth. Then a few homemade biscuits that were terribly salty. So instead of throwing them out, or just put them from wence they came, I decided to couple them with some maple syrup. Now isn't that nutritious. Then to top it all off my mom brings home pizza for dinner. Now at this point I should have cut my losses and avoid eating the pizza. However I simply couldn't just say no. Especially when she made it for moi. Here you must be thinking I ate just a slice then went on my way. Well your wrong my friends dead wrong. You can't put a fat man along side pizza and expect him to just have a slice. That's why I believe Planet Fitness is such a terrible gym. I mean, I try so hard to avoid junk food and here you are giving it away. What world are we living in? Anyway so today was a step forward and two steps back. At this rate I'll be stuck in this unhealthy cycle forever. But what's done is done. And I have to keep believing that it's in me somewhere. That I have what it takes to be healthy and fit. Well good night guys. And it's 3:00 now, I'm going to need lots of luck for tomorrow. Oh, and before I forget, I did finish off the day with the AB ripper. It was tough as nails. Some of the exercises were to hard for me to finish. Though in due time I feel it would become a lot easier. Or at the very least doable.

(day5) "Bring It!"
That phrase was yelled several times this morning. I felt like a Lion on the hunt. With my eyes set on the prize I pushed myself hard and good. I still have an early morning wake up issue. However I'm getting the workout before work down packed. Finally, I'm actually working. Enough of these broken promises and stupid choices. Time to dig deep and see what I'm made of. Hopefully this is the first of many steps forward. Now it's time to have my brunch of home made rice with some tossed lettuce, accompanied by a few multivitamins. Which is very important. Not because I feel like I need all these vitamins. In fact I have heard that all I end up doing is buying some funky urine. However since I don't have a huge pantry, or big budget for food, I have to get those vitamins from somewhere. Well anyway, feeling great! And looking towards a positive future. Will check back later tonight. I still left the worst for last, AB ripper.
