Closing in on my first month

I am in my fourth week of my diet and I hope to hit my first goal by this Monday. I want to lose a total of 26.4 lbs in my first month. I was at 295.8 on Monday night and I want to be at 290 this coming Monday. I hit it hard this week. I am now up to running and walking three miles in a session. However, I wanted to make sure that I did it everyday this week to push me towards 290 lbs.

There were a couple of days last week where I just wasn't hungry and did not have the time for breakfast or lunch and only ate dinner when I got home. I think this had an adverse effect on my weight loss. I have made a point this week to eat every single meal. My favorite thing right now is my egg and ham sandwich for breakfast. Tonight will be great, Becca is making omelets and pancakes again.

Clothes are getting bigger everyday. I am already wearing clothes that I have not worn in a while. I can't wait until I get my waist below a size 44. NO MORE SHOPPING AT BIG AND TALL. I will finally be able to buy clothes anywhere I want to buy them. You have to understand that for clothes always cost more for a big fella. I guess it is because they have to hire Omar the tent maker to sew you pants together. That is finally coming to an end.

See you later in the week. Thanks for all of your encouragement on my journey.

Good going Toby. I realize it is hard to put in all that work and not see the results you want to see for one week, but it is about getting healthy and fit not losing a bunch of weight. And even though the scales did not show a big change you know your body is telling you that you are having a great effect on it.

Toby, you are doing great. I think you have probably analyzed last weeks problem correctly. I am so proud of your exercise routine. Keep it up it will pay off BIG!!!
