I am 34 years old, married and a father of a 2.5 year old. They are the motivators for me to reach my goal. I started the new journey on 8/21/06 @307 lbs and as of June '08, I have lost around 108 lbs. I have been able to keep 100 lb weight loss since Sept. '07. What keeps me on track is the Traineo community, vision of a healthy and fit future and the mini-goals below.
*GOAL 1 = 244 lbs, Date = 2/15/07
Date Met = 2/7/07
*GOAL 2 = 229 lbs, Date = 3/22/07
Date Met = 3/30/07
________________________
*GOAL 3 = 199 lbs, Date = 6/30/08
Date Met = 6/5/08
*GOAL 4 = 185 lbs, Date = 09/30/08
Date Met = TBD
(185 is my "ultimate" goal. Then build muscle.)
Hobbies/Interests: Baseball, White Sox, bowling, WII, Xbox 360, PSP, XM, Opie and Anthony radio show, Ron and Fez radio show, variety of music, working out, running.
Personal Records:
5K - 26:18 (4/14/08-8:29/mile pace)
10K- 54:56-9/16/07-(8:43/mile pace)
10 Mile Run - CXLD due to injury
Marathon - 10/12/08
Advice:
- Set a Deadline: "A goal is a dream with a deadline - Napolean Hill."
- Set Mini Goals - They help you accomplish small milestones on your way to the "ultimate" goal.
- Track your progress.
- Plan everything out. Daily workout routines, meals, etc.
- Be patient. Your goals will eventually be met, if you work hard.

I am selling each of the books below for $3. Or 3 for $8. IF you buy a lot of them, I can do a price break also. Shipping will be about $5 for the first book and $3 for each one after that. It will depend on the weight and how many you order. Everything can be paid via Paypal. Unfortunately, I will only be able to ship to the U.S.
Just send me a message via Traineo or respond to this Thread if you are interested.

I'm basically trying to get in shape and be healthy...
diaryofthefatman.blogspot.com
I like participating in sports but I want to be more competitive. Also I'm with Kevin Spacey from American Beauty - good reason :)
I'm looking to lose about a hundred lbs in the course of a year, and basically to just consistently get better. And I love comments and messages, so keep 'em coming!
I talk about goal setting a lot, how about I actually set some?
Well it's time to revisit goals... I didn't do too well with my end of year plans, but learned some things and changed my plans up a bit as I went along. During the 5-7 weeks of the year, I was able to put on about 8-10lbs of muscle, and stay at the same actual weight. The plan is to start the Strong Lifts 5X5 program to supplement the Couch to 5K program, and that should last the next 8-12 weeks.
I'm updating goals as well. Lowering cholesterol remains a goal, and I'll find out about that at the end of August.
Been bouncing around a bit, but getting a little stricter again and will monitor that over the next 3-4 weeks. I feel poised to really lose some weight again, so I'm looking forward to the healthy eating and additional exercise.

Well, all of them are good leadership books. I would have thought most people would go to Amazon for some "real" reviews.

well, I would trust your judgement over the random Amazon reader - hearing it from you would just have more value. Other than that, I have heard good things about all of these books.
