Well, another 10 days has passed and I am updating....I stepped on the scale today and it read 230! Sound the horns, Pop the Bubbly, Let loose he Ticker Tape, and press up the victory T-shirts and sell them while I parade down the street!!!!
Uh, No. Like Judd Nelson said to "Dick" in The Breakfast Club..."NOT EVEN CLOSE..BUD!!!"
However, this is a tiny victory in this WAR I am fighting in. So, I have dropped 2.5 pounds in 10 days. Eating habits, still sticking to my weekly regimin during the week of Oatmeal and OJ, followed by a cup of Java in the morning and then a Turkey Wrap ( I've switched from White Bread) for lunch. Dinner time, Salad and Chicken and no carbs, however I did eat carbs a few times after 5 pm. It's funny, because I still do not feel heavy after I do eat carbs. I think my body may be adapting. I'm still getting the fat jokes from my crew on the CMB show (http://www.thecmbshow.com/), which is cool, because like I've said before, I'm not going to be content until I'm where I want to be...So keep the JOKES coming BITCHES!!! ; )
Last week I hit a Starbucks or Peete's Coffee almost everyday after 5PM. I've been so tired as of late with work and my e3 business and my daughter KiKi's soccer team added a third practice during the week, so I'm basiclly in the Concord/Clayton area 3 nights out of the week, which is all worth it because:
Congrats to the DFC 98 Dragons and to my KiKi, keep playing hard baby girl!
Also, while in Concord this week, I did manange to NOT tget coffee, instead, I got a new Tattoo:
My new TAT reads: "JE " which are my wifey's initials. She insist they are mine, which they are too, but I really did get this for her. Our 7 year anniversary is today 8.24.09, Happy Anniversary JINKY! We decided to celebrate tommorrow by going to get sushi. Why tommorrow? Well, if you have been following my adventure, you'll know that I gave up RICE and SODA for 100 days. Tommorrow marks the 100th day! I am stoked because I have been wanting some sushi since May 19th ( I started this No Rice, No Soda test on May 18th! ). Anyway, I will reward myself with the awsome'ness of SUSHI tommorrow and perhaps a coke...Well, I'm more stoked about getting to eat rice again, I think I can hold off on the soda. We'll see, the old "FATTER" me wants one really bad, but the "Less, but still a FATTY" feels I can go longer.
Hmmm, maybe I should make my declaration right now. Yeah, I'm going to, in front of all you reading this;
I, Justin David Evangelista, will not drink Soda ( Coke, Pepsi, RC Cola, Dr. Pepper, Sprite, etc...) until May 18th 2010.
Man, there I said it, but can I do it? I think I can, because I'll only be hurting one person if I do break the streak and that's myself, and we all know I love myself just a bit TOO MUCH somtimes...espeacially when the wifey isn't in the mood...BAROOM TISH!
So, another motivation has been added to my "LifeStyle" change. The birth of my new GODSON; John David Evangelista aka JACK. Congrats to my cousin Jay and his wife Aims ( which he owes me his life or maybe just an XBOX 360 for "Hooking" them up!) and to their little girl and my God daughter Maddie who is now a certified "ATE"!
What motivates me about the birth of Jack is that he is the heir to carry on our, EVANGELISTA last name. We were the last two to make sure this happen, I, had three beautiful girls and then my nuts snipped, so it was up to Jay and Aims to make sure our family name lived on. So Jay, like Kobe Bryant in the clutch ( he'll hate that reference, because he says he hates Kobe, but I think he secrectly wants a Bromance with him) fired in a boy! Way to go Jay! Anyway's, the birth of Jack makes me really want to be around longer. I figure by the time Jack is 25 ( just a low guess of when he'll knock some chick up), I'll be 60. So, I'll get to see if Baby Jack can "Get one pass the goalie" and possibly keep the EVANGELISTA name going. This won't happen unless I stay on this new course of eating and living better. My Grandpa Claudio Evangelista lived into his 80's. He never drank or never smoked. He did eat bad because my Grandma fed him well, but for the most part, I remembered he always stayed active. I remember he suffered a heart attack in the 80's, but I'm sure that was from all the good, but bad for your choloresterol food my Grandma was cooking up everyday...
Anyway, welcome to the family Baby Jack! Ninong is going to make sure he's around to watch you have a BOY too!
Well, back to the task at hand. 230, I am now only 15 pounds away from my Silver Goal of 215 pounds and have 25 days to do so. Shiite! I need to step it up now, don't I? I have to lose 4 pounds a week in the next 3 and a half weeks! Shiiite! Again! Well, I love challenges and I'm looking forward to this one. I'm also going to start training myself to wake up at 5:00 am every morning. I got this idea from my buddy Susim, who said he's doing it now. We'll see how that goes....
TTFN....
