Am I that odd?

It is August 17th 2009 and I have finally come to the point that I AM sick of the way I look and I actually want to do something about it. Why at 32 would I decide.... Hell if I know but I did and I feel pretty good about my decision. I have never been one that has a lot of discipline for myself. I go up and down in weight but never do it on purpose. I was just a short 6 years ago a 280 pound blob. Now I am 182. Not bad for not really trying. But it was done the wrong way and I am sure that later in life I will pay for that. But the problem that I have is I still have "Dunlap" (where my belly and sides Dunlap's my belt. So it's time that I take care of that pesky problem once and for all. I will be doing the Slim in 6 program. I have heard a ton of good things about it and thought what the hell. I have friends who do it and swear by it. What do I have to lose. Over the next 6 weeks I will be posting updates to see maybe for just myself what the differences are. Today is Day 1 of the program. I always considered myself in decent shape especially at 182. Not to mention I thought I was coordinated... Well I tell you what ummmm I AM NOT EITHER!!! I haven't done a workout like this in 20 years. Yea remember Jane Fonda. Those were the last ones I did. Of course I was a kid doing them with my mother. (I was a very fat and self conscious kid) So here we go Day 1 I did the 25 min workout and within 15 min I felt every muscle in my body start to cramp and fight against what I was doing. Not a very good way to start out. OF course being a guy thinking that I am well....Yea I'm a guy. I pushed the exercises a little harder then they were on the screen. Yea so I'm a dumb ass! But I finished it. I made it thru the entire video. That was probably the longest 25 min ever but I feel like it was worth it. I just about said screw it 3 times in that 25 min. But actually completing it was a reward all on it's own. My shirt was soaked the kids were all telling me that I looked like I took a shower with my clothes on. That was a pretty good one. So Day 1 is done and I am feeling pretty good. I feel a little sore and am not sure how bad it will be tomorrow but I am actually looking forward to this. They have a stretching video with it so I might try that one first before the actual workout. Should be good times. Well wish me luck cause the next 6 weeks could possibly be hell. But heaven in the end. :D So here are my Day 1 stats. (again I think I am the only one that reads this. I hope not though cause the support of others would be great!) But I will lose the sheet of paper I wrote everything down on...
Weight- 182
Body Mass- 24
Waist- 40 (over the handles)
Thighs-R-20.5 L-20
Chest- 39.75

Ok so I will post my updates Weekly. So here is to a new body...One that I can be proud of.
