Behind..

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

Yeah so I am horrible at keeping this thing updated..

I guess this is why it took me so long to rebuild the site.
I knew I would not keep up with it haha!

All is going well, I am very happy I have a spam filter on this thing, looks like 162spam posts have been made since I opened up the blog.

I am down to around 207-210lbs. So I am doing well in that aspect of life. Blood pressure is still a bit high.. It seems flaky - Reads up and down way too often.
One day I am 120/70. Next I am 150/80.. Then 140/75.. It’s all a bit odd IMO.

Right now I am getting ready to do a 50set of Jumping Jacks.

2 sets of 20x Push Up’s

2 sets of 20x Situps

3 sets of 8x Curls

All While watching WWE Monday Night Raw!

Wish me luck!

All is well!

Well all is well in the life of Charlie lol!

I have had a wonderful weekend, and a good start to a week!
My little brother got Married on Saturday, I was the Best Man! I gave a pretty horrible speech, but people laughed and they said it was good.
Thats all that matters! I got to dance with 2 Beautiful women! (My Mother and Erin (who sadly is married! haha!))

In other good news, I am down to 213lbs from 223lbs.

The best news of the day is today I ran 6miles in 59mins and 45seconds at the gym!
I am so proud of myself!

I am going to do my best to keep up the good work! Keep rooting for me!

This is my Ultimate goal:

By the end of the summer I want to be at around 170-175lbs. I would like to be able to run  a single mile in 6 or 7mins. I would like to have my Bench Press back up to 250/275lbs.

Hopefully I can accomplish all this!

Day 5 of Diet.

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

I know the post is only a day old from when I posted I was going on the diet.

Just so were clear, I started this diet 1/29/10. Went in weighing @ 223lbs with a BP of 190/85
Today I am 216lbs – with a BP of 142/79.

Pretty good so far, I would like to think I really did lose 7lbs but it is very possible that the Doctors Scale and the Scale at the gym are off.
I guess though to keep my head up like it is working I am going to go with I lost 7lbs lol!

The really good part though is the Blood Pressure. With my BP dropped as much as it has, that is definitely a great thing. I am on my way back to being healthy again.

Dieting n Such.

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

So I get home from the Doctors on  Friday 1/29/10 – I learn a few things about myself that I kind of knew but never took any consideration to it.

Found out my Blood pressure was 190/85 – Which is pretty bad. I am at Great risk of having a Stroke and or Heart Attack at pretty much any given point.
So Friday I get home and I just did a bunch of research on how to eat healthier, live healthier, etc.

I talked to some people with Diabetes, and others with High Blood Pressure like myself. So I kind of understand how and what they do to control there body’s to keep them from getting sicker / die.

So as of that Friday I started a diet that pretty much consists of low carbs, low sodium, low sugar (but most sugar from not drinking soda or coffee and energy drinks).
4 days in and so far so good.

Friday I weighed in at 223lbs   BP was 190/85

I am keeping track and I will post Weekly on how it’s going.

Check back.
