Exercise: One of the best workouts of my life. I did the elliptical for 40 minutes, but with a quick water break at the 20-minute mark, then I did a full body workout and pushed myself as hard as I could. Afterwards, I felt incredible, with just the right amount of soreness and a full dose of self confidence. I am awesome!
There are now new pictures on the site. I took them yesterday at work with the help of coworker Jenn, who took the photos. She really brought out my good side. So if you are on Blog Critics and you want to see them, click on my byline at the top of this post and that will take you to the main 210west.com page. There is a link to the actual blog down the left hand column. It is easy to find.
If you are reading this on the site, well then stop being a retard and scroll down a bit.
Anyway, since I am a vain guy, I want to hear some comments on these. Do I look like I am losing weight? (feel free to compare them to the original photos on the page) Would you date me right now? (girl’s only) Am I a monster who should be locked in a basement like that guy from Goonies?(What the fuck was his name? Damn! I forget. "Chunk love...??" Fuck. I can never come through in the clutch.)
Anyway, I was talking with my equally chubby friend Renaud today, and he said something that, I think, rings true for every overweight person.
“The big thing for me right now,” he said, “is just losing any weight at all.”
Now, my all time favorite band is Blues Traveler. And I remember formerly morbidly obese frontman John Popper, after his stomach stapling, saying that he was always just trying to lose any weight at all, just to get started.
When I was going through my “Tomorrow” phase (i.e. I am going to start being healthy tomorrow), I always was cursed with the notion that if I just lost any weight at all, I would be well on my way to a healthy lifestyle.
Hearing Renaud say that, after I had thought it and Popper, one of the greatest musicians of my lifetime (in my opinion), had said it, made me wonder why people don’t just start dieting.
Then I remembered: this shit is hard.
I don’t mean dieting is hard. I mean that any life changing commitment is incredibly difficult to begin. You really have to have your mind functioning at the right level in order to be successful. And, I’m afraid, that means it will take up at least 80 percent of your thoughts. It seems like such and easy thing now to decide to eat well. But I forget that before I made this decision, there were at least 100 other times that I failed.
I still think everything like this is just a matter of effort, but it is a total mystery to me about where that effort ultimately comes from, and for what reasons.
Really, I have nothing else to talk about today. But I am going to ponder this question for awhile.
