Week 1 Results & New Plan

Well, my week one is complete! I lost 5 pounds in a week. Starting at 260 to 255. I'm very happy with those results. I picked up something fun and interesting the other day as well. The Biggest Loser video game for Wii. I've only done day one so far, but the beginner workout (18 minutes) had me sweating by the time we were through. It's going to be a great addition to the rest of my routine.

Speaking of my routine...while I have several different books with a lot of different exercise routines I don't have the full motivation. I'm fully committed to working out and getting in shape, but not motivated enough. I decided to change that today. Today I signed up at a gym and got myself a highly recommended personal trainer. I start tomorrow and can't wait!!!

I've been doing pretty good! I hit the gym on Tues & Wed, took yesterday off, and will be working out again today. I'm thinking of trying the P90X program, but not sure if I want to spend the cash on it. Has anyone tried it?

I know I've lost a few pounds this week so far, probably water weight, but it's a start! I must be doing something right because my muscles were a little sore the day after my first workout, but it went away pretty quick. That's a big difference compared to how they used to hurt for days. I have to thank the Biggest Loser workout book for the tips.

First workout, WOW!

Man...that was rough. That's what I get for being out of shape! I picked up some 15lb dumbbells on my way home so I could complete the beginner workout. (If anyone needs dumbbells, they are on sale at Sears this week. I do have to legally say, I work for Sears, but I'm just trying to let people know they're on sale.) I was able to make it most of the way through, however there were a few things I wasn't able to fully complete. I'm not happy I couldn't do it, but I am very happy that I completed as much as I did. It's not for lack of energy, but I just couldn't push my muscles any more. I look forward to doing it again and being able to complete it!

Now that I've started again, I feel so much more motivated. I'm very happy and excited to finally be doing this. While it's going to be a late dinner night (I'll be staying up to make sure I give my self enough time between eating and sleeping) I'm happy to say I'm making something very nice and healthy from the Biggest Loser Family Cookbook. Buffalo Chicken Meat Loaf. I love buffalo/spicy food and this is going to be a big constant in my life to replace the buffalo wings, buffalo pizza, etc.

Biggest Loser - BodyBugg Forums

Hello everyone! I hope all are well. Last week on the bodybugg forums we started our own Biggest Loser event. We're all going to weigh in weekly and see who does the best. While there is no grand prize, it is motivation for many people like myself.

Sadly, my week one was a big whopping 0 lbs lost. Unfortunately, my car broke down the day before we got started which stranded me in my apartment. This prevented me from getting to the gym, grocery store, and even work. While one problem was solved with working from home I had to resort to ordering delivery food...crap for when you're starting your journey. I'm happy to say I got my car back last night and am starting fresh! While I have gotten some great information from the Belly Off Diet book I purchased from Men's Health, I decided to take it a step further. I went and purchased the Biggest Loser Family Cookbook and the Biggest Loser Fitness Program books. I spent most of the weekend reading through the fitness book and I spent last night putting together menus based off of recipes from the cookbook. I'm looking forward to getting started with the workout program today. I'll keep everyone updated!

Guess Who's Back

After taking a holiday hiatus and gaining all the weight back I've lost, it's time to start fresh!!! A new year and a new program. I was fortunate enough to get the wrist monitor/watch accessory which will be a huge help. I came to realize that the bodybugg on it's own without constant feedback, was definitely a tough thing to do. To spare the eyes of any readers I may have, I will not post my starting picture again because it is the same as last time. I'm starting off again at 260 pounds with a goal of a toned 200-210 pound goal. I'll probably do some video updates as well as actual blogging because my writing skills are horrible. See you all soon and good luck with your new years golas!
