Physical Body Experiment

Leave a comment

I am going to experiment with my body after my birthday Aug 10th and the duration will be at least 3 months. I will start off with the post on the following Monday with my weight, resting heart-rate and blood pressure after my morning walk. Those values should be, in order, 234-230, 78-80 and 116/65 (I’ll compare these values to the actual values on that Monday and see how accurate I was).

I have been struggling with my weight loss for about a year now and can’t seem to leave the 227-230 mark. I can, at times get to around 224 and then the weekend hits and I blow up again or some vacation days etc.. The single item that I’m sure and effect on every one of those measurement points is the quantity of alcohol I consume between Friday night and Saturday. This quantity will seem staggering to most but I am quite sure has me unable to breach this wall with regard to weight and keeps my blood pressure and resting heart-rate higher than I like.

With all that said, my plan is to, starting the Monday after my birthday, I’m giving myself one last hurrah, I will completely shut down my intake of alcohol. This will markedly reduce my calorie consumption for the weeks while maintaining my workout schedule. I am very much looking forward to a healthier me and can’t wait to see the numbers. I think they will be fantastic and I just might see my goal weight of 180.

Last Friday after my morning walk my numbers were:

  • Weight: 230
  • Resting Heart-rate: 73
  • BP: 102/55

Those number are after a week of working out and normal weekday eating habits, no alcohol. The numbers always decrease during the week and then explode again on the weekend. I’m trying to remove the explosion and initiate a downward trend.

Wish me luck!

Edit:

That post was created at the end of last week. This is Monday 7-30-2018 and my numbers this morning were a little supurising:

  • Weight: 233 (What I thought)
  • Resting Heart-rate: 71 (Much lower than I thought)
  • BP: 112/62 (Better than I thought)

Those numbers are not all that bad. I did cut out items I usually eat during a weekend like pasta and white rice with some delivery items like pizza or Mexican, none of which passed my lips this weekend.

Get my head in the game

Time to get my head back into the game after all this mess with Angie. She had the audacity call, not mention money, actually have a nice conversation until Sunday night. Sends message “No questions, I need 320.00 by 2:00pm”. Well the hell with her.

Angie and Me are Done

I thought it was a good thing last year when Angie and I were getting back together after the total misunderstanding by us but I was wrong. During the last year I have spend over 20,000.00 keeping her afloat and just this last month I gave her over 8,000.00 to pay off the car I told her not to buy, her dads headstone and a dumb ass load she got from the crooks that call themselves ‘Cashnetusa.com’. When I paid this off I told her she can never ask for money again. Well a week later she asks if her son Andy can borrow 150.00 (He still owes me the 300.00 he ‘borrowed’). Next she wanted to have a BBQ since it has been a year since her dad passed. I figured ok I’ll let you do that and gave her 500.00 to get a BBQ then all the fixn’s to have a good time with friends and family. What she neglected to tell me was her car needs to be fixed and she needs money for that and her mom’s checking account is overdrawn again. I forgot, along with the 8,000.00 I also added 400.00 to bring her mothers account back to black. Now she is pissed at me because I think she was irresponsible by having a freaking BBQ when she knew she needed her car fixed. Yesterday she sent a message ‘begging’ me for 350.00 to help her out and she will never ask for money again. Well, no s…t she won’t be asking for money again. She will not be talking to me ever again.

On top of all this she had her phone replaced again (fourth time) and ATT keeps calling me to find out where their phone is she is to be sending back. If I have to pay for a freaking phone because she did not send the old one back there will be hell to pay.

Haven’t had much time to do anything but this crap for the last couple weeks.

Done? Oh hell yes we are done.
