I'm Back

Hey everyone,

I'm really sorry with myself for not being able to update this blog. I read it over and over and every time I find more motivation in my own words. I haven't had the time or energy to do either the update here, but (the worst) neither the exercises....


I feel like I've gone back to September 10, when I was a loser and my belly gut was hanging on the side of my pants... Now IT IS TRUE! Here is the story: I was walking by the mall and we went shopping. I was carrying some bags and decided to pull up my pants a bit because my belt was one of those American Eagle ones, that slowly unties around your waist, the ones you have to re adjust all the time. I went to pull my belt, and then, suddenly, fell something really strange - my gutt was back, on the side of my pants...

I feel like a total as****e right now. I not only let you guys down, but I also let myself down.

That's probably why I have been making all this booze about the new group - I WANNA HAVE MY ABS BEFORE SPRING! Even if I get my 6 pack abs after spring's started, I will be lean and cut by summertime.

So now with my life-style changes lately:
  • I have stopped exercising (which is something I HAVE FIXED RIGHT AWAY)
  • I'm starting to eat healthier (mainly because I'll cook myself) on the 27th of this month.
  • I now have a good job at Calgary's Co-Op, carrying out groceries for people and bagging them as well (which is a lot of fun because I get to socialize a lot)
  • I will be posting my face on the pictures (that I'll do for more motivation and to put some pressure on myself -facing the world will make me wanna face them with good lean and cut abs)
  • I will be wasting less time with MSN, Facebook, YouTube, MySpace, and several other recognized websites that I waste my time surfing through.
  • I have promised myself that the ending date for my challenge will be on Sunday, April 20th (counting in that I'll forget a couple times, lol).
  • My motivation is no longer coming from others. It is coming now from the center of my heart, which keeps telling me that I need to break the chain and not be a fatty like the rest of my family.
  • I will be doing and sticking to it till the end.

I have several things to come in the next few months, but I will stay as updated as I can.

So for now I will stop saying random stuff and go to bed (look at the time, oh my God, how late!)

See you guys all back into the challenge.

Julian

Hey Julian, thank for the comments on my blog. And to answer your question about how Ive bettered my daughters diet, heres what I can tell you. The obvious good thing is that since I dont eat fast food anymore, neither does she. She has always liked certain vegetables and fruits so I have just introduced her to a few more, which most she likes. I dont let her have any white bread, white rice, or other processed foods or flours. Now I know shes still a kid so when I do give her some treats they are things like sugar free pudding, or these little crackers and cookies that I found for her at the store that are made out of wheat, so she still gets treats, just good ones.

I know that shes still a baby though, so her body dosnt need the same stuff I eat, and she still gets things like most kids do like mac and cheese. But like most kids, they go through times where they only like to eat like 3 things all the time. She still gets whole milk cause she needs the fat and calcium, and most mornings she eats oatmeal just like I do, with the occasional bowl of cereal here and there. Oh, and she LOVES to steal a bite or two every time I have one of my protein bars, she thinks they're chocolate.

Well I hope that helps a bit, email me if you have any other questions. My email address is keny21d@aol.com Just put Ally in the title so I dont delete it.

Good luck with your continued training, and thank you again for your kind words.

Hey Julian,
Good job with the lifestyle changes lately. And I know what you mean about wasting time on you tube facebook, etc. Especially when your on the computer and supposed to be studying. I actually quit facebook because it was taking too much time and preventing me from studying.

Anyway, I think it's great that you've rallied us to start over! Looking forward to it.

Sup Julian,

I just dropped by and read about your challenges and changes lately. I hope you will succeed and fight along with the others from www.sixpackattackforum.com - I don't know if you're already signed up in there? - I can see, that you've been on the challenge before, so it's great to have someone with experience to help us through (I guess you know most of the excercises and drills..)

Keep fighting and stay focused - In the end we will all have that lean six pack. :D

Lots of luck,
Danny.
