Ira's Journey-The next Phase-Real Life

Monday morning I awoke at 4AM for my last official weigh in at Core Fitness. Doug met me at 5AM. He took all my measurements and body fat. I do not remember them but when I get the calculations I will post them. My final weight loss was 39 pounds. I was happy yet disappointed as I wanted more.

I boarded the plane and came home with a feeling of satisfaction and I immediatly unpacked my clothes after greeting Savannah and went right to the elipical for 45 minutes and a quick ab set. After that I prepared my meals for the day as Lea had taught me and off to work I went.

I got to my office and it was decorated with banners and ballons. Every employee called to ask " How Much?". I felt very much the luckiest man in the world as my phone and e-mails blew up with people wanting to know. I have learned a lot about myself and am excited about this next phase.

I have been home for two days and have been regimented and plan to be that way until I have the confidence that I am headed in the right direction ( I am close). Today was my first work out with my trainer at my home. It was nice to work out in the back yard. He pushed me hard but I still missed Doug, Ryan and Anny. I definatly missed my massage from Linda.

Life is great. I have great friends, family and colleagues. I will keep you all posted and I hope that you all hold me accountable.

Thanks,

IK
