I've got a lot of them right now...

Extra pounds Excuses Little mistakes Negative thoughts I have a lot of those things and I have now figured out the FATmatic equation of life. Mistake5x + Excuses x Negative thoughts=Extra Pounds It's really that simple. For some dumb reason I have put the formula to use for the past week and a half! I could give you all the excuses, but quite frankly they don't matter. I could tell you why I thought it was Ok to have a girl scout cookie(for the kids of course) or why I thought the caramel frappe at Mcdonalds was a good idea, but it would just be another excuses. Then it all snowballed on me and the negative thoughts aka FATHEADED thinking creeped by into my daily life for the first time in over a year! NOW here is the good news...my mistakes are small...no big greasy hamburgers or pizza. But the fact is they are still mistakes and lots of small mistakes and excuses really do lead to extra pounds. I HAVE ABOUT 5 POUNDS TO PROVE IT! My scale was creeping up towards a number I NEVER EVER WANT TO SEE AGAIN! So I've realized that the FAT formula really does work. Glad I was able to prove it :) Now I need to get back to the FITHEADED thinking and see if I can have a clever FIT formula for you in the next week! I leave with few of my favorite thoughts that got me motivated when I first started... Sacrifice something good for something better If you think you can or can't you are probably right and one that is soooooooooo crucial to healthy eating Failing to plan is planning to fail Heres to me taking my own advice for awhile

VEGAS, ZAGS WIN but do I????

First of all my apologies for not blogging for 1 month!!! That is NOT ok and if you don't hear from me for a few weeks you better start emailing me and telling me to get with the program.

So I wanted to lose another 15 before the trip to VEGAS and I didn't make that goal ended up being 5 pounds down heading into the trip. Good news...I didn't beat myself up over it. I know I am gonna keep eating right and working hard and over time it will slowly go away. Plus I KNOW that is the healthy way to do it.

VEGAS was a blast. It was soooo much fun getting away for the weekend and enjoying the WCC championships with all the ZAGS. In the past there would have been no way the FATHEADED KEVIN would have been able to have fun and celebrate without eating BAD. Afterall EATING BAD IS FUN...right???? NOT anymore. I am so proud of myself for not eating one bad thing for me on the trip! I was like Charlie Sheen...winning! Now also like Charlie, I had way way way too much to drink and certainly had some sugar drinks that were NOT healthy at all(but they were dang good).

Got back home and checked in with mr scale. I was up 3 pounds from the trip, I honestly think most of it was just from drinking too many liquids :)

SO HERE IS THE PLAN FOR MARCH MADNESS...
Mike and I are doing small 4 day challenges every week. MY current 4 day challenge is...GETTING BACK TO DRINKING JUST WATER! I have had such great success when I do this. Needless to say the alcohol didn't have a good effect on my body. I also have talked about the fact that the chai tea and those sugar drinks are also one of my biggest vices. So the challenge is on! I will check back with you after the challenge and see how it goes.


It's been awhile since I've post any pics. So I figured I would throw up a few from VEGAS.
BTW, My wife is really really pretty.



Be Healthy
