Day 1

So today I looked in the mirror as many of us do on a daily basis. I decided I had let myself go far enough. I weigh 226lbs and that is too much for me. Starting today I have set a goal of 190lbs by the time my new baby is born. I know what it is going to take to get there but I need to stay on target and work hard. So today is DAY 1. I have 163 days left until the due date. So today is the beginning. I work at 1700 hours and I get off at 2000 hours. I plan on going for a 4 mile walk after that and then I go back to work at 2230. Tomorrow I work from 0900 hours and get off at 1300 hours. I will work out either in the morning before work or more likely after or both. I am going to start working out with Grayson my son and try and set a good example for him since he had made the gymnastics team program at Top Flight Gymnastics Training Center in Southlake, Texas. So what to call the blog that I am starting. One of my favorite songs to listen to on the way to work is Stronger by Daft Punk. In that song there is a lyric that suits me well. It is "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger". So there we have it, the start of a new me.
