It Has Been a While

Wow, it has been a while since I last posted something on my blog. I feel really bad about that, but once again I'll try to get back in the habit of posting regularly. So today I will mention something big that has happened to me. For those who don't know, a couple months ago I weighed more than 170 pounds. Not a good thing for a guy who is 5 foot 6 inches, I looked fat. However, a couple of days earlier and I weighed in at 154 and a half pounds. Ladies and gentlemen, that is less than I weighed my junior year in high school. I had to go through my closet and get rid of clothes that no longer fit me because they're too big. I found a black suit I wore in high school, it fits me now. Sadly most of my dress shirts are too big for me now, but hey, at least I'm thinner.

The hardest part of losing weight is the fact that I love food that has a lot of carbs. My mother made peanut butter cup cupcakes, and they are so good! Unfortunately, they are extremely high in calories. I feel like I need to spend an hour in the gym after eating one. Well, I'm still watching what I eat and I'm trying to choose the healthier option, even when it is hard. My goal is to get down to 150 pounds and keep my weight there. I'm still going to the gym as well as walking my dogs every day, even in the rain like I did this morning. If I keep this up, I'll get down to my ideal weight.

I'm going to try to post regularly again. I believe next time I'll do a Through Rose Covered Glasses post. I haven't done one of those in a while, and people seem to enjoy those.

Anyway, I'm Colin and these are the ramblings of a guy in his twenties.
