Almost done...

The end is within sight, ladies and gentlemen. I have made my last appointment at the weight loss center I am going to and after that will be on my own. They said that I was one of the more successful patients of the year so far and that they would like to share my blog a bit with other patients. I obliged since I think motivation for anyone is a huge help, and seeing other results from other people is a great way to gain that motivation. This is no exception, and I hope that anyone else that reads this blog will definitely be encouraged to get out there, lose weight, and be committed. It’s how you lose and look better and it is worth every sacrificed calorie (not that it’s really a problem, anyway).

I also got in my b and m shifter today. It looks great and definitely is going to be nice on the track. I will probably run my quarter mile time in the next few days. Over the last week or so, I upgraded the air intake (custom made), put in a boost-like product running 8 PSI, and did a few other choice mods that should have this thing ripping up the track. I’m hoping for a 13.XX second quarter mile, but that’s something I would normally run on the vette.

Nelson: The Next Jackie Chan?!

Yes, I have finally resorted to recording tenth value digits for my weight loss. I just realized that as I was reading my last post on here. Some call it desperation, but to be honest, it’s just a way to keep track of my success and keep me motivated. Since the last time I wrote I have last about another 2.4 pounds, from what my scale says. That places me at…oh…about 175.6 for the total time I have been on the diet. I think it’s going to wrap up nicely if I keep losing about this much. I am going to start looking at some aerobics classes or a martial art that I can take up once I am done with the diet and can start very rigorous exercise again. I’m pretty much vowing to myself that I will never again look like I did when I started the diet, so I just need to find a couple sports that I can take up that will help keep the weight off and me looking great! I’m thinking about Tae Kwon Do right now since it is classified as a really wonderful beginner martial art and I am fairly old for starting something like this so late in my adulthood. I’ve heard stranger things, though, so I’m not too worried about it. It should go over fairly well if I stay committed and stick with it. Cya all!

More weight loss and car work...

Apparently I really did lose about .8 pounds because now the scale says I have lost another 3 pounds on top of what I lost last time. That brings me to right about 178 pounds even. I feel great and I finally broke down and bought a few more clothes to wear until I am down a few more pounds, which shouldn’t be too much of a problem. It was great though, I walked into a client’s office the other day and his secretary asked me what happened to me! Ha! I could get used to this new look.

I also got the mounts on my car replaced, too. It took a couple hours because I was feeling lazy and had electronics hub (a few powerful computers, code readers, electrical analysis machines, etc) on and was surfing the web instead of thinking about diagnostics. Can you tell I like my cars and my weight loss quite a bit at the moment? I’m throwing a short shifter (b and m) in the car tomorrow if I can find time to do it, but right now I am working 7-4 everyday. Spring is here and it’s kicking up some big business at the moment.

Vacation Plan?

Might as well post another blog entry tonight while I am not too busy. Scale says I have lost 0.8 pounds, but I am pretty sure it wasn’t quite that much. I am still following the diet protocols exactly as it says I am supposed to follow them, but I think the end of this treatment is pretty much here. I am going to stay on it for another 3 weeks, I think. That way I can get as close to my goal weight as possible before stopping. Proper nutrition and exercise should take me the rest of the way if I am within 10 pounds. Even if I’m not, I’m not to terribly worried about it since I have come an extraordinary way as far as the amount of weight I have lost and how well I did. I am planning on making a trip to Florida as my reward for all the weight I have lost. I figure I can take a week break and get a vacation. I even have the placed picked out! I’m thinking like Marco Island or Tampa. Both places are beautiful and it has been forever since I was last at either of them. I will keep you all updated on what I decide, but I will probably head out sometime in the beginning of July or late June. Take care all of you fellow weight losers!

Again, weight loss slowed, but that's OK.

Weight loss has once again slowed. I wasn’t expecting it to slow down again so soon, but I’m losing a little over half a pound a day once I average it all out. Not a bad weight loss by any means, but I’m so close to my target weight that I really want it to be over with now. I’ve finally started jogging every morning. Four months ago I never ever even considered doing something like that, but it’s been really great getting out and putting in a little bit mileage every morning before I start my work. I lost about 4 pounds since my last post and am down to about 182 lbs, if my memory and math serves me correctly. I also went into the weight loss center again today. It went well and they were encouraging despite the fact that my weight loss has slowed up a little.

Speaking of work, I have ended pulling my engine back up a little bit out of the Mustang because I decided to put in some better motor mounts. It makes for a little more vibration in the cab, but it is a really neat effect that I could get used to. I’m going to go ahead and drag a little, I’ve decided, so I figure I might as well get some better performance parts for the car.
