The Heavy Weight Champion!

Today is the day My most influential musical friend died. RIP Ronny Walker. I got the call this morning around 6am and was saddened. Although after several times over the past year, I started a new “diet”, today was different. I felt that his loss meant more than I could explain. So this is day one of what I’m calling The heavy weight champion. I currently weigh 339 pounds.
It’s 6pm October 17th, 2016.

Today is Tuesday. Had two coconuts/water and just finished a slim tea. Food is on my mind. I’m focused on the outcome, where I want to be, how I want to feel and the ability to feel strong for diciplining myself. Being fat is NOT cool.

Alright, today is Monday and I’ve done NO dieting or exercising since my last post. However, Friday was day one of another cleansing fast. I feel great and may be conquering this thing after all. It’s 4pm on 112016.
My weight is 85 pounds over my current goal. EIGHTYFIVEPOUNDS!!

Wow! It’s almost a year later and I’ve ridden more rollercoasters than anyone will ever know. Being fat is really sad to me. It seems to be the toughest battle that I seem to loose daily. Not liking one’s self Has to be the worst transitional emotion in society. It’s virtually impossible to feel this way and display a positive attitude in general. Somehow I do it weekly by emptying myself through my music and just interacting with others in general. Feeling crappy inside but being nice and giving outwardly?
It’s the ultimate original fake. smh. Pray for me. lol.
Either way, falling is all apart of the race as getting up is how we get to the finish line.
I just left OTF and on the way out, I heard an instructor say to a member, “the tortoise won the race”.
Walking out today at 350, 11 pounds Over my weight last year this time and having coming back from getting down to about 305 wishing the year, I had that one spark to again ignite the flame to get up again.
On Oct. 17, I entered into a contest/agreement with my best buddy. We have a cash type deal and goals to reach that challenge each other with a great deal of intense enthusiasm.
WHY HAVE I GOTTEN OFF TO THE WORST START EVER! Ugh.
It’s been tough but today is a new day. With that said, allow me to give Kudos to OTF.
Orange Theory Fitness/Hollywood. Considering I’ve experienced traditional weight training and cardio, aerobics, bootcamps, cross fits, zumba, yoga, Hit… You name it, I’ve done it. The Slim fasts, Quick weight losses, Jenny Craigs to the diet lemonade teas to straight out hard core fasting, I’ve done it all but when I look in the mirror, I’m still not happy! I’m very aware that working out hard and eating harder is fishing without a hook. I also know it’s mind over matter…
I will say that Orange Theory is the most impressive option to fitness I’ve experienced in that you can only challenge yourself while interacting with others. This concept should be the leading option for individuals of all walks of life. From a beginner to an advanced fitness guru, you can find you place in an OTF group and improve your fitness level. For the next few months, this will be my new fitness home as I continue this recent challenge to improve my own life, my good friends life while at the same time, generating madd bragging rights. I’m excited. Wish me well. Will post more info soon.
