Kevin and I spend a good deal of time covering the Ravens. This week we found ourselves out at their training facility around lunch time. We decided to stop for something on the way back to the office. Keep in mind, Sonic is right on the way. Kevin and I have stopped there a few times. I must admit, I brought it up as a lunch option to see what he'd say. His suggestion ... let's go to the Whole Foods salad bar. I think he's definitely committed to this change in lifestyle. Here's Kevin:
Weight 279. This has been the most fun I have had losing weight ever. I have received such encouraging words from so many people, especially from those who have tried P90X. It's like a fraternity. Keep the positive emails coming.
It's also encouraging to see the results of my training. I have gone down one loop on my belt. Yes.
In the past, I have found it easy to lose the first 20 pounds. It's pounds 21 and on that have been the hold up.
One of the emails I received told me not to chart my progress with my scale, but to continue the P90X program, and the weight loss and fitness will come. There are going to be days, maybe weeks, when the hand on the scale will not be moving in a counter-clockwise direction. Those are the times when you just need to trust the program and continue.
I spend a lot of time in my car going out to report on the Ravens or some other stories. So I listen to a lot of radio, and there is such an onslaught of fast-food commercials every minute. That has been my Achilles heel in the past. This time I'm sticking to the plan.
I want to thank everyone for your positive emails, and let's continue to strive together for our fitness goals.
Weight: 279
Height: 6 feet
