Well, here we are.
A little bit late of a post, mainly because I am not overly pleased with my initial results - only 3 pounds down, 0.9% total loss
I have not changed my diet or habits much which is the culprit for the lack of loss. One of the ways I am trying to do the weight loss is to take my lunch to work as often as possible. This is difficult for me since I travel so often and my schedule is very unpredictable even when I am home.
The month of April was also a month of celebration, my family came to visit me in Australia, my wife had her birthday, Easter, and so on. Hayden and I ate out quite a bit and I often pushed the envelope on "what was for dinner" to something unhealthy.
This is Hayden and I's last month in Australia, so it will be filled with a number of farewell drinks and dinners. It will be difficult to maintain or progress on any kind of weight-loss. I know it is not as inspirational as everyone hoped, and I am mildly disappointed in myself.
I am looking forward to the days ahead when I can establish a routine and process, and make daily occurrences in to real habits. Please keep supporting me and pushing me to keep posting.

Getting Started
Today is my 29th birthday.
Today is the heaviest I have ever weighed.
I have no issues with my age, but have had issues with my weight since I was 10 years old. The purpose of this blog is to share my experience with you over the next 365 days in an effort to lose 30% of my total body weight.
As of this morning I weigh 352.5 lbs. Shocking!
I will not be drastically changing my diet or exercise routine, but rather making small adjustments, using will power, and being smarter about how I eat and exercise. I will only be weigh myself on the 28th of each month. This weight-loss journey is more about my overall well being, both physically and mentally, and not the pounds coming off my body. This is somewhat contradictory to my title, but iwanttolookbetterandachievehighetselfconfidence.blogspot.com is too long to type in. My title also sets a goal for me to work for, let's break it down:
- 30% of 352.5 = 105.75 lbs
- 105.75 divided by each month = 8.8125 lbs
- 8.8125 divided by each day = .02414384 lbs
This will be a long and hopefully rewarding journey for me, my friends and my family.
