Well...when I enlisted in December...my weight was something like 197.4lbs. That was before Christmas and New Years...and I put on about 4lbs during those holidays. So before I started going to the YMCA I weighed roughly 201lbs. Well as of today I weigh 184lbs. My goal was to get to 185lbs before I ship to Basic in June. I lost 1 more pound than I set my goal as...now I'm just gonna see how much I can lose before I leave. I'm losing it slow, which I hear is better. I have another 2 months to get as much done physically as possible, so I'm gonna buckle down on my running, push-ups and sit ups.


All I've been doing to lose this weight is playing basketball. I play atleast 1-2 hours of 4 on 4, full court basketball every day. It's a great workout. And they keep it hot in the gym, so that helps me sweat even more. I played for almost 3 hours today, and I felt great. My legs are a little tired now, but I feel good overall.


Just wanted to announce my mini-success...anybody else been doing well with their weight-loss adventures?
