Hi Guys according to this site I’ve been a member since Nov of 03 and probably haven’t posted anything since the middle of 04. This obviously means somewhere along the line I slipped.

Well today my wife & I’s third wedding anniversary, and I’m heavier now then when we meet, and I was about 15 pounds over weight then! Now I’m closer to….I don’t want to think about it. sigh

There was a time about 2 years ago when I was in fairly good shape and was just carrying extra inches…to be in that position again would be so nice as right now as I feel like the Pilsbury dough boy. I realized something was wrong while watching the biggest loser and saw the contestants way in at LESS then I am now…Shock to the system or what!

Any words of wisdom from the wise and more defined?

All the best

Warmly

Wow surely your not ask ME for advice… its Mike your asking right?

Actually yes I did learn something, and that was KEEP IT EXCITING! I made the mistake of letting boredom set in because I stuck to a routine for too long. I should have changed it up earlier and didn’t.

Find a program that works…but don’t stay with it forever. At least two weeks before your program is due to end find something new so you have new exercises to look forward to. This will stop you from dragging your existing program out for two or three extra weeks, hitting a plateau, then dropping the ball completely.

Warmly
