Well... it's time...

Back on Dec 2, 2005 I was involved in a horrific motorcycle accident with serious injuries. I feel lucky to be alive. I sustained 4 broken ribs, a punctured lung, fractures to both knee caps and a fractured left hip. It has taken me almost 15 months to recover and rehab my injuries. I am happy to say that I am 95% recovered and I lifted all time personal records at weightlifting in the gym. I am so HAPPY !! But the downside is that I have experienced a weight gain of about 18 lbs. My normal weight is around 180 lbs. I am a professional personal trainer so being 18 lbs overweight is NOT a good thing. I feel strong enough now to start an aggressive weight loss program to lose the additional weight. Since I have an abundance of muscle I feel its time to lean out, strip away the body fat and look and feel my best. At 56 I still feel my best years are ahead of me. The purpose of this blog is motivational for me. I will write here daily, making all known about what I am doing and what I am eating. My goal is to be my best on September 30, 2007. I would appreciate any feedback !! Now it's time to go out and run 1.5 miles. Have fun !!

Thanks


Fred
