Hi Mi.. err.. Tony. Goodluck![]()
No, I am not Monstar(sorry Mike), but I figured that since the competition was over, I needed to get out of the IM Comp forum and re-introduce my diary in this forum. I am planning to continue training with HIT and try to get my food intake under control.
I need you folks more than ever because I have literally found myself gaining weight (occurred right after I hurt my shoulder) and I am not happy with me and with my current state.
Ya'll are my inspiration and I am ready to continue with this. I do need all the help I can get and you folks have always come thru for me...

Tony ... you don't need anyones help, you just need to do what needs to be done. You started off with a bang when before the shoulder injury. You need to find that Tony again.
Now rollin' with the Raider

Tony,
You're doing fine. We have ALL pretty much had to deal with injuries. The fact that you are still here speaks for itself. Regroup, refocus. You can do this... as for me, I'm still stuck at 240, compliments of a stress induced binge eating (LOL)... coupled with no gym (BAH!). Needless to say, I too am regrouping, and refocusing.

Steve: That's my wake up call. I really don't need help, otherwise I'd be paying for it right? This is all on me. I guess I let the injury get to me, and I guess I am frustrated about me not progressing as quickly as I used to. That, is part of aging...No, I don't mean it in a funny way. I was told back in the day to be careful and lose the weight early because if I didn't, it would get a lot tougher to do as I got older. It got tougher.....thanks Steve. I needed some tough love![]()
Arch: I am good thanks, just regrouping as, Dan said...
Dan: Thanks, I appreciate you telling me that. I did panic a little bit and I am somewhat panicking....My birthday is coming up and I am going to be an unhealthy 36....That's what scares me...

Hey Arch, I am here....
Problem is the kids got a cold and I have been taking care of them, since neither the grandma (breast cancer treatment) nor the great grandma (colon cancer treatment) can take care of them when they have colds. They can't get sick.
I am getting my head on straight and will continue training next week....
I am thinking of doing Max Ot at least twice a week. I need to jumpstart my body and I think that Max OT and HIT may do the trick....

Kids are feeling better Arch. I am feeling much better.
I decided to go back and see where I was going wrong. My eating habits are bad. The saddest thing is that I haven't binged. Heck, I don't know what binging is. I just eat the wrong foods.
The first thing I need to do is get my mind healthy. I am also going to restart my full body workout to then transition it again to the splits.
That way I can get my mind back where it's supposed to be.
We'll see what happens next...

Update:
I have been out of commission this week. Both kids are sick with colds (since last thursday) and since both possible sitters are going thru cancer treatment, I have been trying to work from home while taking care of both kids....
By the time my wife is back from work, I am too drained to workout or think about anything, this aside from the fact that sleeping is not very abundant lately with the colds (Oh, I forgot to include my wife among the sick). I have a feeling this is going to be one really shitty birthday, just a hunch...
Crappy Birthday to me!!!![]()
Aside from that, crazy as it sounds, I have a good outlook on things and I am looking forward to next week, when things go back to normal and I begin again. I am already dying to begin.....(I am not a big fan of this birthday in particular)

Hang in there Brother, the light at the end of the tunnel is almost here!!! I hope everyone feels better soon. Keep your spirits up, as it looks like they are. It's only a matter of time till your breaking down the walls again!!!

You are right Arch, my spirits are up. I am not in a bad mood, I just want to get to work as soon as possible. If I get down on myself, then I go back to "the dark place"Originally Posted by Archangel
and there is no need for that.
I will begin working out again on tuesday, just so that I can have a weekend workout.
Adios...

Hey Tony-
Sounds like we've both been dragging a bit the last few days/weeks. I'm starting to pull my shit together, sounds like you are too. Good luck with it. I know what a bitch it can be to get rolling again...![]()

Yeah, tomorrow is D-day.....I begin again.
No more dragging ass for me. I have maintained my fatness (thank god I haven't gotten any fatter) and I am ready to get rolling again.
As a great birthday gift today, I find out that my membership to the gym ran out. Now I have to go tomorrow and renew. I hope they don't take an arm and a leg now, since I didn't renew ahead of time. See? I knew I wasn't looking forward to today, now I got proof....
Adios Seņor Pylon.....

Howdy folks,
Yup, it's me, I'm still here.
I am in the process of going to class and studying for my Real Estate license. It's a lot of work but it's well worth the time spent doing it.
I have put aside my training for a couple of weeks as I get used to studying again.
I had spent 2 straight weeks working from home and taking care of my kids while my two sitters (the grandmas) recovered from chemotherapy and radiation.
Then this week a began my Real Estate course and my time is very short. I study until late and wake up early to take the kids to school.
My classes run from 6:30 pm to 10:30 pm Mo-We-Thu, so my time is very short. I study on my off days and this is after the children go to sleep, or after 9:00 pm.
I don't mind, though. I believe that this is perfect for me and for some extra cash (Anthony's school tuition)
Adios...
