Day 56 and the lines cross

New Graph and Pictures so exciting!

A nice weekend is being had by all. We had blessing of the animals today at church - what a riot.

Sunday is my weigh in graph day and things just keep getting better. IN FACT the lines crossed. I weighed in at 160.5 and 78% muscle (non fat). Sometimes the numbers seem meaningless when compared to being in the day and being mindful. However, sometimes they are great motivators and stakes in the ground. Certainly the future has 150? lbs and 80? %.

WARNING - THERAPY BLOGGING AHEAD

Being 150-something. Thirty years ago I wrestled 155 when I was a senior in High school. I imagine that is the last time I was this fit. During those 30 years I weighted 230 in college (Do the words Fat, Drunk, and Stupid come to mind) and for years weighted 190 - 210. I think I have weighted 180 something for the majority of my adult life with some peaks and valleys in there.
A few years ago I was Mr. Low Carb and got down to 165 for a while. Then I went to doctoral school and things at work got worse and worse and slowly I got heavier. I liked most of the low carb drill, but I think without a positive objective (if it is low carb? what is it high in?).

For years I know that anything processed was bad news for me.

This January after losing my job and our on-campus home, moving twice in 100 days (Great news , we ended up a wonderful house that my wife loves), starting a business (So far, better than OK), and going through the holidays I set the scales at 191 on Jan 2nd. At the nadir (or apex?) I had an Epiphany, or a miracle of willingness and I started doing Weight Watchers and recording everything I ate. From that point forward I have been getting healthier and fitter. The timing of my PCP start was divine. May many beliefs and thoughts have been braided together and MY GOD I am unearthing a never before seen version of my body that is awesome. I call it Watson 4.8. Thanks

Go Team Go!
