So my late night snacking has come back in the last month, I think I am finally getting it back under control again. I have been working out consistently this week. Finally start feeling healthy again and my back seizes up today... fun stuff, should be ok by tomorrow.
Saturday I am taking the family to go tubing again. Last time we had a blast and it sure does burn a lot of calories walking back up the hillside.
I am going to post updated pictures either today or tomorrow.

Ok enough already
Ok I have slipped and let my mental guards down long enough.
I will not eat after 8pm. I will not allow myself to think its ok, its just one grahm cracker, cause that leads to a whole pack and a string cheese or two, then a 330 wake up and eat session. No I have already lost 25lbs and I refuse to put it back or not hit my goal weight.
Today I started working out again using Xbox Kinect and your shape fitness evolved. I also am going to start going to the YMCA that I am a member of and swimming, eliptical and shoot hoops, I always did like basketball, well playing it, not watching it. Anyhow, its time to drop these last 15lbs and then see if I can drop another 15 or 20. My goal right now is 220 from 260. But 210 or 200 doesnt sound so bad either.

Not doing well
Well Ive fallen back into some of my old habits and I have been eating after 8pm AND waking up and eating in the middle of the night. So I need to retrain/refrain myself from these bad bad habits AGAIN... it was so hard the first time, but I know it is the only way to achieve my goals and be a healthier happier me... I have noticed the more I eat and the less I exercise that I am also falling back into my unhappier self. Back when I started and was eating way better and exercising a lot I was more upbeat and happier in general. I liked it and need to get back to that.
I have also let this blog slide, I think that all of this started when I stopped writing about my progress, like a mental block where if I could skip this then I could just cheat or skip on other things... I am a little dissapointed in myself right now, but at least I havent lost any ground and put 5lbs or more back on... I have been hovering at 235 for almost a month...
Gonna start going to the YMCA early in the morning since they will watch the boys for 90 minutes. I figure 30 minutes in the pool and 30 minutes on an eliptical...

Back on track and exercising again
So the holidays did a little number on my eating, I gained 3 pounds from Thanksgiving to Xmas. I was also sick for about 3 weeks, still not 100% better but enough so that I can function, clean house and exercise again.
I just picked up Your Shape Fitness Evolved for the xbox 360 Kinect and it is really really awesome. I will probably be using this more then the EA Sports Active 2.0 simply because it is lower impact. The plan at this stage is to use the Your Shape everyday and then do the EA active 3 days a week on low impact and see how my body responds. My knee and hip issues make it harder for me to workout as often as I would like.
The one thing I wished that would come of all this weight loss and exercising is that my left leg from my hip down would stop bothering me. Both my hip and my knee hurt pretty much everyday, I have been seeing doctors for 20 years about this and they cant figure out what is wrong, I have had xrays, been to physical therapy and nothing really seems to help. Tempory relief is nice, but I would like to live w/o so much pain. I dont like taking pills to relieve pain either... Who needs to get addicted.
