back at the track today,did 21/4 miles,honestly,the thought that keeps runnin through my mind is,7 more pounds,and i wont be obese any more,as i get closer,it is startin to feel like im in a dream or somethin,hard to explain,but every day,i feel like a new person,part of it is the way that i move around the track,,when i see other obese walkers,tryin to get started,i am so fkn glad that ive past the first stage,i even had one guy to approach me and asked me if id write down on paper,exactly how i lost this weight,while i thought it was a bit weird,i think he was sincere (and desperate),so im goin to oblige him and write it down,,,i wore some dress pants yesterday.that were size 44 waist,while it felt good to wear a 44,these pants have elastic in them so im not goin to declare that i wear a 44 til i can wear 'the suit',guess i need to get one of those measurin tapes to find out what my waist size really is."keep the continue"

Hognuts...picked up my daughter at the airport yesterday...should have seen the look on her face, made my year....now I don't even mind if she takes pictures....losing weight sure does change your outlook on life, and I feel like my attitude about a few things have changed.....we even went to the gym together and she was amazed that I was running on the treadmill....

viejo,becoming obese changes who we are,ye get to a certain point,all you can think about is your weight,no matter if you are the most wonderful human being on the planet,it dont mean shit,i realize now,that if you become fat enough,depression is inevitable,aint its great to be focused on all the healthy aspects of our lives,and all the things we are doin to improve our health, rather than how fat we are,viejo,enjoy time with your daughter and keep the continue,glad to have a fellow traveler on this road to a healthy lifestyle..yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeha

went to the soccer field,this afternoon,did nothin but walk the one mile rectangle,6 times,i think the bike trail,was beginnin to bother my knees,especially the left one,might have to stick to the 1/4 mile track, the soccer field,and their cross country trainin facility(the forest).got on the scales when i got home and it said 230,whoooooppeeee,the only trouble is,i hadnt ate or drank anything,,ill gain several pounds tonight,i like to go by how much i weigh in the mornin,so im not goin to declare myself at 230 just yet,buuuut,i dont care what time of day or night it is,what a fkn trip,to see 230,on the scales,hmmm,think ill try that suit on,for the fiftyeleventh time,yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeha!

Walked two miles on the beach this morning on Pattaya Beach and then played 18 holes of golf...joined the Marriot gym today, pretty nice facilities including steam room and suana...300 bucks for the 3 weeks that I am here, but it is worth it....open 6 a.m. till 11 at nite and it also icludes fresh drinks and fruits....Hognuts, I will let you know my progress and how this fitness center works out.....the gym and my hotel is only a two minute walk to the beach...
