Making Progress

On Monday I had a doctor's appointment for a physical. It went pretty much as I expected.

me: Hi doc.

doctor: Hey Mark, how are you since the last time I saw you?

me: Very well actually, thank you.

doctor: Your vitals look great. You seem to be very healthy. How old are
            you again? (doctor chuckles) just kidding.

me: Funny.

doctor: Any new tattoos, surgery scars or bumps, lumps etc?

me: Not this time sorry.

doctor: It's okay I had to ask...okay so you look fine and your pulse and blood
            pressure are great! See you in a year.

me: Thanks doc.

Okay I know that was boring...here is what he failed to mention: last year at this time my 73 inch tall body weighed a staggering 223 lbs. When I was home in Utah I stepped onto my mother's bathroom scale and it said 223 lbs. That is roughly 45lbs of someone I don't want to be. So I decided to do something about that. That's where You came in Coach.

2 weeks after returning home from Utah and meeting with my Coach, commiting to changing my eating habits and trying to cut out meat from my diet, my weight on Monday, 9 April 2012 was 209lbs!!!!

To say I was stoked would be an epic understatement. I knew I was dropping poundage because my clothes started looking less like they were being stretched over the "hey Kool-ade" pitcher guy and more like they fit my shrinking torso!

I know I'm a long way from getting to my target weight of 175 - 180lbs but now I know that goal is very achievable if I stay disciplined and eat "super foods" and take care of my body as I promised myself and Coach I would when I signed my contract with Her.

Thank you Coach!
I love You!!!
