Weight Loss Food Haul #1

Recently someone ask me if I was on some type of special diet, my response was know I don’t do I diets…this weight loss journey is about changing my lifestyle. When I think of diets I think of something temporary, something that will last about six months and then you are back to your regular scheduled program. What I’m doing is for life…it’s like a marriage, “until death do us apart,” for +26 years I’ve known what it’s like to be obese. It’s about time to know what it is to be at a healthy weight.. Then they ask, “Well what do I eat?What do I both from the grocery store?” Since I got my groceries deliveries a couple of days ago I thought that would be a great opportunity to show what I buy form the grocery store. So I present to you my food haul:

Something to note about this food haul

I like to do my grocery shopping online because it limits me from buying junk food randomly. You know what I’m talking about..when you walk buy the milk and you notice the end cap across from it with Oreo’s and they are on sale 10 for $10. Shopping online cuts all of that stuff out..I make my menu for the week, we (My girlfriend and I) make my list of what we need, then we order them  online sticking to the list. It’s definite take a little more time to do but it always saves us money versus going to the store. Also you might notice that there is not a lot of meats on this list and that because we stay very close to a meat and fish market , so we usually get our meats the day before we are going to cook them.

Check out the vlog of my food haul! I’ve included some of my favorite healthy snacks that I’m order every week. I think you’re going to find this very informative and entertaining.

Buddha Qoute

AH Yeah! Guess who back….back again! 300 P.A.R.’s back…back again. Guess who’s back…Guess who’s back…Guess who’s back…Guess who’s back…Yes I’m back!

Let me tell y’all something this has been a long and crazy December. Finals, papers, group projects, and presentations…OH MY! Yea if I had a ledge I would have jumped…I’m just playing. I don’t want anybody to think that I need to be on suicide watch or anything. The mess up thing is that after I finished all my finals, papers, and projects; I ended up getting pneumonia… That was crazy because I thought the only people who get pneumonia are babies, old people, and people in the hospital…I was wrong about that!  Your boy was dead to the world for about a week and a half. I spent most of my days in the bed watching Netflix. I ended up watching at least two seasons of 24. Anyways I’m not quite fully recovered, I still have about 4 days of antibiotics left to take…I think I’m functioning at about 85% so the end is near. I want to say thanks to those who follow me on Twitter and Facebook who sent me all types of well wishes….I really appreciated them…I tried my best to respond to everybody but the meds had me in a different world. So this is me saying thanks!  It’s great to be feeling back to my normal self. It’s time to go back to regular plan…

Y’all now I keep it real…so I gotta tell the truth and say that I haven’t gone for a run in while and when I say a while I mean Thanksgiving. Yes I haven’t ran since Thanksgiving…Things have been crazy and I know I can’t use that for an excuse…I need to get butt out there ASAP and run a mile, 5K, or  something… I’ll keep y’all posted on whatever I decide to do.

Until Next Time I’m 300 Pounds and Running.

Running Mad!

Last night my girlfriend was pushing my buttons and I became irritated. I didn’t even argue with her I just went for a run. I left mainly to get out the house but my run ended up being very therapeutic.

Run Check In

300 pounds and running

I decided to take the momentum from my previous work out and run outside today. The birds were chirping and the bees were buzzing. Wait…. I think I’m dreaming! Finding it weird that I dreamt about running; I get out of the bed, put on my clothes and went for a run.

I tried to switch it up with today’s run but it came back to bite me in the butt. I ran around my neighborhood because I wanted to see something different. I made a right turn where I usually make a left. Everything seemed to be going good with my run. Pandora was playing the right songs to keep me motivated. I was in the zone until I was thought to myself, “Gee, I’m still running downhill!”
