The 180 Pr0ject

Can you still feel the butterflies?

Day 2:

So, Day 2 went pretty well. Today is strength-training day for me. Last summer I had shoulder surgery and I need to spend some time rebuilding the muscle. So that’s what I did!

Now why wasn’t it great you ask? (Beware it might get gross below)

I either pulled my asshole/chode area or I got a Hemorrhoid…. I don’t really have a lump and nothing is bulging but the area around my brown eye is uber tight and it feels like a pulled muscle. I guess the only way to know for sure is to bend over, part the forest, and ask Celina to look. But sadly (after 9 years) I’m still not cool asking her to do that.

I’m on my way out to get some Prep-H and see if it works!

Tonight's the night, and it's going to happen again...

Man I love Dexter! Such a great show.

Tonight, ladies and gentlemen is the kick off of my 9 week marathon
training! I've decided to join my good friend Bob on a quest to rid
ourselves of the demon that is extra weight.

My goal is simple, I want to lose something meaningful. What is meaningful? Fuck if I know. If I
had to put a number on it I'd say 20 pounds. I'd also like to be able to run more
then half a lap without getting winded.

Im cutting out all fast food, junk food, soda, beer, and hard alcohol.

Worked out.

My knee hurts

I'm thinking about doing Weight Watchers.

Not much to report. I went down to Vancouver and drank way to much. Luckily I was able to puke everything up so I didn't gain any weight. I need to start a harder workout though. I think my body has adapted to the heat because I'm not sweating as much anymore.

I'm scheduling my surgery tomorrow morning, FINALLY! All appointments have to go through one woman and she has been gone for 2 weeks. I'm still debiting on if I should be away from work for a extended period of time. We have some summer programs finishing up and I should really be around for them and since I'm a good guy I'll most likely go into work.

“to be gentle again...”

2009-08-05T22:04:00.000-07:00

Working out was hell tonight. I had to shit the entire time and that my friend is rough!

Tomorrow I’m scheduling my surgery and I’ll figure out how much time I need to take off work. Ideally, I would have the surgery on a Friday and go back in the following Monday but who knows…..

2009-08-04T22:03:00.000-07:00

Today after I was on the elliptical for 30 minutes I ran for the first time in 6 or 7 months! I tried to go for a full 30 minutes switching between running and walking every other song. Sadly, I only made it for 20 minutes. I didn’t feel too bad though. It’ll take me awhile to be able to run for long periods of time.

I’ve been thinking that after my shoulder heals I might enter in a marathon. Charlie, one of my dearest and bestest friends did some in high school with his family and they all dropped a shit load of weight.

Heyo! I haven’t updated in a long time. Celina’s parents were up this weekend and that means I don’t have computer access. Mike, Celina’s father, pretty much takes over everything. It’s all good though.

I only worked out for a half hour today. Celina wasn’t feeling good and wanted to leave so I ended early. I guess she still wants the fat shit Bryan vs the maybe skinny Bryan.

I found out last Friday that I have to have shoulder surgery. Basically, they are going to remove the end of clavicle so my shoulder stops being the fucking bitch that it has been for the last 6 or 7 years. I hate the fact that out of the 3 or 4 doctors I’ve seen no one mentioned surgery until now. I guess it had to get to a certain level before they would even consider it? Who knows…

Here is a sweet link my mom found and a awesome picture.

Still hot.

Still worked out

Still sweating 20 minutes later.

My body might be a tad over heated…..

“I trusted misleading promises worth repeating”

2009-07-28T21:49:00.000-07:00

So it’s fucking hot. I’m talking balls sticking to my leg hot…..

On the way to the gym I was sweating a shit-ton and by the time I got to the gym I must have looked like a fucking weirdo. The work out was good though! I put up all the levels again. I’m trying to build up to running. I should just start running but I think I’ll get discouraged and give up on The 180 Pr0ject all together.

And none of us want that.

“Who's gonna drive you home, tonight?”

2009-07-23T22:36:00.000-07:00

Worked out by myself today and it was alright. My knee was killing me so I didn’t do a full hour. Plus the LOST episode was over and I didn’t have anything else to watch.

I weighed myself tonight too. I started this journey at 297. Tonight I was 292.

2009-07-22T22:06:00.000-07:00

Super tired from the workout today! I forgot to bring water today, which isn’t all that smart but whatever, I’ll just pass out later. I’m going to weigh myself on tomorrow and see if I’ve made any progress.

“All my heroes have failed me and all your heroes will fail you….”

2009-07-21T22:11:00.000-07:00

Kinda a dark lyric but whatever! I feelin' it right now.

The work out was good today. I turned the incline up to 14 and the resistance to 10. Did that for an hour and it was grand. Lots of sweat!

The only bummer with working out is I end up staying way later then I would want to.

I’m still not a morning person.

“i'll knock you off your high horse. Tonight we fucking burn your dreams….”

2009-07-20T21:02:00.000-07:00

I haven’t worked out in 3 days. I am a bum and a joke.

It’s hard to be motivated to work out on the weekends. Celina is working during the day so the house is mine. I spend the day watching bad films I’ve added to the DVR over the last 7 months.

By the way the DVR is the best invention ever!

On Sunday I fucked up my back. I have no idea what I did but it fucking hurts. I’ve never had this much pain in my back before. Its nuts!!!

I was all set to work out today, even if I was crying from the unbelievable pain in my back. Crying and massive sweating that a combination the dude/dudet next to me would love to be around. But alas, our tire was flat and I had to change it (first tire change ever by the way) and we didn’t feel totally cool driving to the gym. Celina, being the loving fiancé that she is, felt I probably shouldn’t work out anyway because my back is so fucked.

Tomorrow though, God fucking DAMMIT, I will do a massive work out!

“From nothing we have risen and from nothing we still rise…”

2009-07-15T22:08:00.000-07:00

Felt great after the workout today. I bumped up the resistance for the second half hour. That really made the heart start pounding!

People are totally staring at the Sauna Suit though. I keep thinking my balls are hanging out or something.

"certian words must be screamed rather than be sung or spoken"

2009-07-14T22:15:00.000-07:00

Worked out in the Sauna Suit for the first time.

It

was

great!!!!

I'm sure the shower like sweat dripping out of my sleeve made the woman next to me want to vomit but fuck her. I'm trying to drop a massive amount of weight here!

“And I have no mercy for your soul…”

2009-07-14T18:03:00.000-07:00

Good news everyone! My Sauna Suit finally came!

I’ll do another blog after I work out and let y’all know what it was like!

“Awaken and destroy these dreams. Awaken and be free”

2009-07-13T21:26:00.000-07:00

I’ve always been a big guy and it never bothered me. It still doesn’t. I’m not trying to drop this weight because I disgust my self or something. I just want to be healthier and fit in my sweet band shirts again. Any who, for many years I was Straight Edge and I always used that to judge my health. A conversation with family or friends would go something like this.

“Hey Bryan, your lookin’ kinda big these days.” Then I would say, “Hey FUCK YOU MAN, at least I don’t drink like you cock sucker” As if I was better then them.

Now however, I sold out and drink. I let myself go crazy for a few weeks but that’s out of my system.

I’m still waiting for this Goddamn Sauna Suit to show up.

And my knee is killing me.

“This winter is lasting forever, at least for tonight….”

2009-07-11T13:47:00.000-07:00

Did you know all my titles are song lyrics?! Well now you do!

I did a half hour of Tae-Bo today, without my Sauna Suit thanks too Amazon taking forever. Tae-Bo kicks my ass. It always kills my knees and shoulders but makes me sweat a lot. So there you go.

"What I have in my heart, I'll take to my grave..."

2009-07-10T17:19:00.000-07:00

Still wasn’t feelin’ all that hot today but I did manage to do some sit-ups and a few push-up. Now my shoulder hurts, not because of the fatness of my ridiculous body but because of the arthritis I have from football.

I’m 23, over-weight, and have arthritis. It’s a good thing I’m engaged because with those stats I’d have to lock my self in a room to hide form all the ladies.

Did I mention I’m bald also....

"come on, come on we´ll make it through this, open your eyes and see that we are halfway home"

2009-07-09T20:48:00.000-07:00

I’m sooo happy this week is almost over. I’ve been getting sicker and sicker. This morning was fucking awful. I told my boss I might leave after a meeting we had but I ended up feeling great a few hours later. Sadly, this bastard has awoken from his slumber and raged on me with all the power of Grey Skull.

So I didn’t work out…

I’m going to try Tae-bo this weekend in my Sauna Suit. I’m tempted to record myself.

"Peace, Love, Dope. NOW GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE"

2009-07-08T21:56:00.000-07:00

So, as I mentioned in my earlier blog, The 180 Pr0ject is underway!

Even though I’ve been working out off and on for the last few months, tonight was my real starting point, day one if you will. Being that it’s day one, I do what realty TV has taught me to do, weigh my fat ass! My highly embarrassing starting weight came in at 297 and as I stood there naked, scratching my butt on the scale I thought to myself. “What the fuck happened to me?!”

I’m also cutting all soda consumption and bought myself a Sauna Suit to work out in. We’ll see if that helps.

117 pounds to go.

So it begins...

2009-07-08T11:33:00.001-07:00

The 180 Pr0ject is officially begun and I wanted to welcome you to the blog! Before you continue reading, I need you to understand two very important things about me that might make this blog NWS/NSFW.

1. I’m going to curse a lot.
2. I’m probably going some very odd and gross things

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

T.8.P. is all about my fat ass losing some much needed weight and you’re going to help me make my goal of 180 pounds!

Now, how in the hell are you going to help me!?!

Well, I’m formally inviting y’all to join in the masochistic fun by creating your own goal and to use the comments section in each post to challenge/support each other in our quest.

We all need to hold each other accountable so we can make our goals!

More to come later tonight!
