Graduated from the class of 300

Readers, I would like to inform you that I have graduated from the class of 300 (pounds) and now I'm under it and will never, never go back.

I have lost over 20pounds right now, let break it down.
I started after Thanksgiving I was doing the P90X program but that wasn't working that well for me, I would lose weight then gain it, I stayed around the same weight for weeks, I started the diet (there's 3 different diets in P90X, the one I'm on is called "Fat Shredder" I'm on the level 2 phrase  and  will stay on that one, I thought by starting that I would lose the weight faster along with the workouts from P90X, but the program itself wasn't working for "Me"
after I stop doing the P90X workouts  and  started doing the treadmill, the pounds started to drop, a week and a half ago I was 48 pounds away from 260 (Which, at 260 I can start on my papers.. that is if I have been  making money, for mission).
Now I'm 37pounds away from 260, amazing isn't it?

In a week I lose a pound  everyday, if I didn't lost one in a  day, then the next  day it'll be gone, so now in a week I lose 5-7pounds
When for weeks just doing P90X it wasn't moving, it stayed

I'm just so happy it's working now, life will get so much better.
My friends are amazing support, they all know I'll be able to lose the weight, and that help tons, same with my Mom, she's amazing, helping me out, telling me I'll be able to do it

Last week I tried on a pair of jeans, they were to tight, I couldn't even put them on all the way, today I tried them on and they fit, I was able to wear them and walk around, they are the tightest jeans I own, so I will not wear them yet, couple more weeks and they will fit like normal.

The shirt I'm wearing now, used to be tightish, now it's baggy.
The shirt I had during trek, the second shirt, I only wore it on the way home, it was to tight for trekking, I now use it as my church shirt and there's so much room!

I'm loving the changes, I was talking to a friend of mine, Spencer Steele and he sent me this video to watch


It'll be an amazing journey, and I would like to welcome you all to share this journey, send the link to my blog to you're friends and families, I now have 20 followers and that is just amazing by itself, how much can I get before I leave on my mission?


"The Lord gives us a spirit of hope and a feeling of comfort and confidence that we can overcome the obstacles we face. He has shown the way to gain strength during our struggles. With His assistance, we have the ability to succeed."
--L. Lionel Kendrick, "Strength During Struggles,", Ensign, Oct 2001, 24

I know the Lord is on my side, I have prayed to him, for help on this journey of losing the weight to be his servant, to be his hands for two years, and it doesn't even stop there

What I been missing

This is what I been missing!
doing the treadmill, it works the best I believe, I'm always  sweatier doing it and feel great when I'm done
I remember a couple of years ago when I tired losing the weight before then I did the treadmill for a week and lost 7lbs
I always failed trying to lose the weight before but not this time, I will conquer it. going on a mission will be a dream for me and be the best two years of my life.

Last week I was  mad with myself because the results of last week, but after a couple days to look back at it, I lost 2lbs, I did not gain 2lbs, therefore that was a win for me.
Life will always have  ups and downs, when you're in the down part try to change you're mood, think of uplifting and happy things in life.

My plan of being done on May 9th for the BBQ at mutual, will not come true, there is less days then there is weight to lose, but I will be half way done by then I hope.. and if not, then I'll look better then I do now.

Scripture of the day: - Alma 26:12
"Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name forever."

Endure to the end, stay strong in the Gospel and you won't regret it

My Struggles Soon Gone

I been dealing with some struggles lately.. mostly about just wanting the weight to lose faster, but how can I lose more then 3lbs in a day?, which has been the most I have lost in a day, the short answer... I can't really.
It's so tough to start the workouts, I always dread doing it but once I'm done I feel much better and my body feels great too.

In a day I normally do an hour of treadmill full incline, jogging/walking.. and that works very well, lose the most weight by doing the treadmill, the thing I hate is the sweat it's all over you and I just don't like how it feels.

I also been hating upon myself for getting to where I am, it took me 18 years to get to the state I am in now, and.. I just hate myself for that, but you know what?, it took me 18 years to get here, but won't take me 18 years to lose the weight.

Last week when I put on my church pants, I had to keep pulling them up, I look forward to each week putting on my church clothes, each time there more room.

I have talked to some of my friends about these feelings and how thoughts of giving up came to mind.. well won't happen this time.

Reason: I want to go on my mission, I want to serve my Lord and teach the people he wants me to teach, and once I do lose the weight.. I'll be happier in life, I'll be able to live my full life:

March-April is when I'm planning I'll be done losing the weight, I look how far away it is now and think.. "Will I even get here?" the question.. is yes and then guess what?.... the beast shall unleash itself with the smexiness
Yep, I made that up myself... how could you tell?.

One day at a time, one week at a time, one month at a time.. and I'll get there
I'll be getting a church suit, and that will do well with the smexiness

(To the ladies) Wouldn't you date or hang out with a beastly guy with curly hair who wears a black church suit to church?.. if I was a girl and I knew a guy like that, then I would * cough cough, you should do the same*
Oh yeah, the guy is spiritual and love going to church, oh might I add he has blue eyes that will shine in the moonlight?, and... I'll stop now, you gotten the point :)

Enjoy the laughs which follow up there ^ (To the guy, but  the girls will think it's dreamy, huh?)
I'll use my weight lost story in many of my talks which I'll do once I'm older, I want to become like John Bytheway.
