HCB's Journal, 04 Jan 18

Happy Thursday, my fabulous Followers!

I believe the "FatSecret" is to NEVER give up...I always circle back to hold myself accountable.

Last night I was listening to "The Obesity Code" again on my iPod - he was discussing why people almost always lose and then gain in a cycle. It sounded so familiar. Maintenance has been the biggest challenge for me.

So, a couple weeks ago a few of my gym buddies and I got t-shirts saying we have never seen the trainer and the devil together! Below is a photo of us with our favorite trainer! Notice he has a pitchfork and devil horns!

of course, I am the short one in the front left with the black t-shirt!

Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle - Tom Venuto

Short Range Goals:
* ACCEPT the weight gain with grace
* LOG EVERY DAY - especially when traveling for work!
* REVISIT Nutrition plan - possibly calorie count and look at macros again
* Movement down on the Idiot Boxes while retaining muscle by year end 2018
* Bodyfat % reading with trainer in early APRIL - MAY, 2018
* Drink at least 12-14 cups of fresh water daily - especially on gym days
* Continue HIIT mixed in with weight lifting four to five days a week
* Keep up the training notebook to achieve progressive overload

Long Range Goals: 2018
*Bodyfat at 26% or less (Current 29.8%) by end of 2018
*Longer range body fat goal is 22% - which at my age is great!
*Maintain Idiot Box at 160lbs staying under goal weight by end of 2018
*Increased strength, endurance and flexibility during workouts

Words of the Week:"Anything is possible, but you have to believe and you have to fight."

I am dedicated, determined and diligent

HCB, I haven't listened to that but believe in the cycle. You and I have both found WOE and exercise that work for us but still have to pay attention daily otherwise it starts sneaking back. Maintaining is ongoing forever. "Diets" have ends; life changes keep going.
