Healthcare Rant

Ya know I am really ticked bout this healthcare talk lately. Damn republicans, sorry if you are reading and you are republican, but it must be said. All the hootin and hollerin going on about this healthcare reform. I sure am not hearing alternative ideas to what has been brought to the table. I mean lets be real here.

Ya know I am affected by healthcare greatly. I take several medications daily just to exist. I think this reform is necessary. I believe many of ppl scream no are not even really affected by the current system. We need change with the current system. Do I like all parts of it? No, but start is better than no change at all. Let's get with it people and stop this business as usual attitude in government and become more progressive. Sometimes out contrary can be so backwards.

SMH!

So the last couple days I had to write a testimonial and provide pics to my personal trainer for his website. As I was writing this and taking update pictures, even though the scale shows it, not enough physical transformation. I have made some muscular gains though. Here is part of the testimonial:

"So you may thinking to yourself, 50lbs in a little less than a year? That's all? Anyone who remotely has gone through transformations know this hasn't been easy.  Why you may ask? Well I am glad you want to know. Life friends. When you lead such a busy life sometimes you fall of the wagon. Sickness, having a full rigorous sechedule, kids, and just plain ole setbacks. I imagined having lost a 100lbs by then. It just didnt't happen. Don't get me wrong 50lbs is a decent number, but it is not my goal. Could I have avoided a few things that held me back? Most certainly, but sickness was not one, and I was sick quite often over the winter. Full-time school and work does get in the way. I was fully dedicated to Dave's plan for 8 out of the last 12months. I forsee another 6 months of hard work, I can knock off another 50lbs. Even with all that was thrown at me, I still managed to put up a respectable loss, just now have to go even harder."

Do work son!

Time to talk to the people

I am going to try my hands at a little it of talk radio again. I am going to cover various topics. This won't be Oprah or Montell Williams, but this will be real talk from real people. Uncensored. Stay tuned for more details.

Anger

I write this blog today with a little anger. I am just fed up with healthcare and insurance. It is ridiculous what people like me(who take several medications daily) and live with chronic illness have to go through. I have a feeling that many people were not in favor of Obama's healthcare reform need to open their eyes wide. Is the reform perfect? No, not by any means. This current system is whack, and some change is better than no change. Our focus on acute care is ridiculous.

The system is set up to fail us. How about insurance companies cover more costs of gym dues. Why does it cost more money to buy healthy foods than junk food? Why does grass-fed beef cost more than corn-fed beef? Grass is free last time I checked.Why does organic food cost more? You would think money is being saved on the pesticide purchases. My Dr as like, get your meds in Canada. Way cheaper. All because I have garbage insurance that my pay twice as much for as my last job, and only a quarter of the benefits. Who knew?? Yea Yea Yea, I like Obama, and all, but it seems like business as usual in Washington, and we will see if this reform really works out.

So I finished the workout. The run was disappointing, but I guess it is something considering I wasn't feeling too well. You can hear me talk about it on video.  Expect to see more of these friends.

Torn

So I blogged a little while ago about the couple different events I planned on doing in February. I am a little nervous about the one coming this Saturday. I do not think I am ready for it, so I am torn whether I should do it or not. So I was thinking of doing the Get Lucky 7k on March 20th. I would have a whole lot more time to prepare for it. So maybe I am being skurred because Sat it is only gonna be 22 degrees and I have never really run when it is really cold outside. What to do? What to do? I am still gonna do kickboxing, maybe I should play it by ear on how I feel by Friday. I really want to do it, but thinks maybe it may be too soon. I am gonna go at it hard this week and see how it goes....that is all I can do right?

Cleaaaaanse

So I am doing this 2 day full body cleanse. I do not see how people do this for 7 days. Not fun,  but necessary. Gotta clean out all that Mcdonald's and stuff right? A week from today I am going to do the Valentine's Day run." They told me to park car." I am watching Bait Car, funny funny!!! That seems to be everyone's excuse. I gotta get to the gym now, exercise makes me feel mentally great, and I think I am starting to get addicted to the feeling. This could be a great thing or an obsession starting????

Let's Get It

So as I decided to live an active lifestyle, I decided to start kickboxing again. Its not that cardio kickboxing crap at a gym where they are kicking bags. We are sparring. I love kickboxing alot. So I am gonna dooooooo it. I have read around that working out can really bed ambigueous. So I decided to train. I DECIDED to do different marathons and bike tours and kickboxing so I have end gpals. The goal not only to lose weight,  but the goal to do well at these events. So the payoff becomes two fold. Why didn't i decide this earlier. Time to go train now.

LEAD AN ACTIVE LIFESTYLE

So today I decided to that besides working out that I need to get involved with sport activities. With that said besides doing the IronMan BikeRide I decided to do some run and walkathons. I figure if I do other activities fitness will become a lifestyle for me, and I will succeed with my weight loss goals. So I decided to do two things in February. First I am gonna do the Valentine's Day Marathon on Feb 13th and the Walk for Diabetes at Mall of America. Follow me on my journey this year to an active lifestyle.

Well....well......well.....

Gotta love how consistent I am with blogging. I am sure it keeps peeps on their toes. I think I have this cold that is trying to kill me. It has been like a week. THIS guy wants to get back into the gym. I finally for the first time in 5 years get under 300lbs, and I decide to get sick for a week. Who knew?

So today I spent like 2 hours waiting at Minute Clinic with errbody and their kids because I was sick. Is it weird to feel disappointed when you spend money at the Dr to only find out that how much you spent was not worth the diagnosis? That was me today friends. As I sit here and blog, I am burning on fire, I want to drink a hot totty, but I have to take a drug test tomorrow, so that is not happening. #FAIL........

Tonight I sat and pretended I was interested in the Grammys even though I really wasn't. Twitter hype had to me all stoked, it faded fast though.  I have seen Beyonce enough, and was not interested in any Simon Garfunkel covers. Does that mean I am not tuned in? Sure I am, I choose to reap the benefits much later.

I am that guy who never likes to watch shows current. DVR it or wait til it is out on DVD with no commercials. Yup, I am that guy. Night friends.....the bed calls, hopefully I wake up fresh and well. ;)

Worked Out

Today was my first workout in a gym over a month. Being without a gym sucked. I go to www.planetfitness.com
It's real basic. For 10 bux a month I expected it to be spartan, but it is not bad. No free weights tho, but I think I live with machines, cables, and smithies for now. This workout felt REAL GOOD. Felt refreshed, after feeling real sluggish lately. Well I am going to keep it up for awhile, everyday, help me get the mood up. Today I ran a mile in 20.00 minutes. Terrible I know, but that should get better as I start to do this everyday again. I managed to keep my cal intake to 1500 cal, and I am not starving.  Back in the saddle baby!!

How do you manage?

Today I am sitting here drinking coffee, on the job search, wondering to myself..........How do I manage all that is going on? A job loss triggers so many different things and emotions. It is kinda like being at the crossroads of life. After doing so many of the same type of jobs in the same field, I feel it is time for me to do something different. It has never resonated so strongly in my life as it has now.

I have heard the line before, when one door close, another one opens. This may be in fact true, but how do you keep the patience for that other door to open? Especially when so many other people are affected by my job loss. It's like damn, I struggle with enough. http://www.fmylife.com/  Makes me feel better about the situation, and I think FML, and I can relate to some of this stuff.

I have FML thoughts alot.  So I am looking in CareerBuilder, Monster, Craigslist, StarTribune, but it seems to be the same old jobs. So I have to learn how to do networking, since I have been told this can be a great way to make some good contacts.

Two days until my gym opens up, and I can't wait to get back in. Now I love playing the WII, but that is just not gonna cut it as good solid workouts. Today it is warmer, I may get a run in, I gotta get out.

It has been a helluva week

The last week has been one of the worst weeks ever, I must say. Stress, stress, stress, and more stress. I thought not working would really jump start me to get it crackin. This thing call life has cast a dark cloud over me for a bit. As things start to light up, I am starting to get more motivated to get going again. Going without a gym the past few weeks has totally sucked. I am going to check out Fitness 19 and Planet Fitness tomorrow. Will have to see which one I like better. S

So I have three things to accomplish so far. I need to start training for The Ironman Bike Ride 2010. It is on April 25, 2010. http://ironmanbikeride.org/  I need to train for this. Last year I waited until April to train, and it was tough gettting through the ride. This year I NEED to be in better shape. Got some wonderful pics from last year:  Can't find them! Sowwy. Anywho, so the training starts NOW!

Then I entered the The 2010 Body For Life Challenge. 12 week challenge, best transformation wins $25,000. I also entered The MaxFormaton 2010 Challenge.  So I am looking to post results.

History has told that I have said within the last year at least 5 times, oh I am gonna do this, and get it together. I get on the groove then I fall off. It is NOT an option this time peeps! I will DO WORK!
