So what does it matter if you splurge here and there?

A ton!

This is Jorge again...

Previously this was my progress:
Jan 22nd Jan 30th
Weight 346.0 lbs 343.2 lbs
BMI 45.7 45.3
Fat% 37.1% 34.9%
Fat Mass 128.4 lbs 119.8 lbs
Fat Free Mass 217.6 lbs 223.4 lbs

Goal weight by reunion: 315 lbs

Now:
Feb 16th
Weight 344.0 lbs
BMI 45.4
Fat% 39.2%
Fat Mass 134.8 lbs
Fat Free Mass 209.2 lbs

So I only gained 0.8 pounds overall after eating bad via the Superbowl, Week before the Week before my Birthday, Week before my Birthday, and then my Birthday. Did I ENJOY all that food ENOUGH to appreciate that I GAINED 15 POUNDS OF FAT and LOST 14.2 POUNDS OF MUSCLE?! *$%&@ NO!!! Did I get it through my head that I was one of the fortunate people on this earth that didn't have to worry about having food the next day? NO! So I botched it all up and I feel like a complete idiot. I did this to myself and thought I was getting off pretty since I was around the same ballpark in weight. Well, what lies beneath tells the true story and now I am looking at the Reunion as a further and further goal. So what?! Now I have to accept these numbers and have to depend on you all to keep me in line. I hid behind not "posting" hoping that my numbers would not be that bad. I paid the price. I can't believe all the time I "waisted" but now I need to be focused. I will be back on the train. I will make my "hour of power" a top priority. I had some weeks where I only worked out twice. Who was I fooling? My resolve must be stronger if I really want to prove that my life is more important than food. I appologize to you all because I know you all want me to do well. Maybe I am not the only one that has "hid" but that makes it no less a sin. This is a struggle that I must fight and win. This is my time and all I am doing is delaying it. I will bring home better numbers next time. Hold me to it.

DITO and I am on board as well as holding you accountable. I have totally let my husband down and his is truly disappointed in me because of my lack of efforts. Sometiems I feel like Karl is too hard on me, but I set myself up for failure and he sees that. So, I am emotionally committed as well as physically. I want it for myself, as well as to prove to my husband that I can obtain a goal I set! Thanks for your honesty Jorge. I appreciate it.
