Getting Motivated...

Hi, I'm Alex. I am a seventeen year old puertorican guy who is extremely overweight. On November 2008, after much insistence from my grandmother, my mother took me to the Doctor for a physical test. When the Doctor weighed me I was weighing 270 lbs using size 40 pants and X-XX Large Shirts. He gave me some tips and sent me to do various blood tests to ensure that I was fine. I had good blood pressure, good sugar/sodium/ and everything else levels except for my triglycerides. So when I went back on December 2008 I weighed 264, I had followed some tips and I had shown some weight loss.

That same month on Christmas we got a Wii Fit at home from Santa so I started using it. I tried to do my best at doing daily routines and I was starting to lose weight. I had gotten to a 253 all time low. But then for some reason I don't recall I stopped excersising on the machine so I went on to gain weight. I think about seventeen days had passed since I hadn't touched the Wii Fit and I went on to weigh 258. A few days passed without using it and I went on to weight .4 more than previously. That was today. I possibly weigh between 259 and 260.

But now I am motivated by two things: I want to look good for my graduation and I am starting to like someone so I want to look good. So I decided to start this experiment. This kind of weight loss log to see how I am doing and to track the foods I consume and the time I spend doing excersise, etc. I also plan to give my reviews on the Wii Fit minigames and give tips on weight loss that help me and might help other overweight teens and adults on losing weight.

Signed,
Alex
