Jay's Thoughts

So the first week wasn't my cup of tea. I really thought I did pretty good with the food angle but in the end I think that was my weakness. I worked out starting on Monday through Saturday for at least 1.5 hours a day, burning good amounts of calories and tearing my poor muscles up, I literally couldn't walk for several days without considerable pain. I won't saw I am unhappy with losing one pound in a week, but I was expecting a little more.

This week I am really focusing on getting my food and portions correct and thus far, I am doing great. But what I am really looking forward to is our new secret weapon that should get here in the next week or so... It is called the "bodybugg" and we actually saw it being used on the Biggest Loser and did some research and wow, this little contraption is pretty neat. You can check it out here: http://www.bodybugg.com. Basically you wear an arm band, just like you see all the people on Biggest Loser wearing, and it will tell you exactly how many calories you burn throughout the day. While resting, working out and even sleeping. Then combining that with knowing exactly how many calories we are eating during the day, we will be able to make sure that we eat less calories everyday then we are working off, which leads to weight loss.

So I am very anxious to get started with the bodybuggs and to see exactly where we are at with our food and working out so we can fine tune each to make the most of each and every day along this journey.

That is all I have for you now.

Jay
