My New Year Resolutions are ready to get a grade for January. As you know, my main goal is on December 31, 2012 to say, "2012 was a great year!" So let's get to it.
Grade and Evaluate 2012 Resolutions/Goals:

SEEING the final REP in MY Mind!

I posted an audio tip from Dr. J and TheFatGuy yesterday titled Visualization. Below is the message from one of our Eat Smart Move More fit tips:

Where do I start?

Do what works for you!!

Last time we decided "That Magic Button" is inside of ME and YOU. Sometimes it is hard to see and hard to find, but I promise you it is there! Now that I've pushed the button, WHERE DO I START?

That Magic Button

Magic Buttons

"There's my magic button!" Is what I hear when I see people looking for that perfect exercise program, the transformative piece of equipment, or quick & easy diet. Now is a good time to talk about this with ME and YOU.

2012: The Fat Guy on Winter Tips

Posted Thu, 2012-01-19 11:02 by Fat Guy

I did a radio program called Carolina Now with Kelly Golden last week. It was aired on local Clear Channel stations. We talked about TheFatGuy, his journey, and fitness in the winter. If you want to know what TheFatGuy sounds like you can listen to the podcast at 2012: The Fat Guy on losing weight . If not, I will list some of TheFatGuy's winter tips below:

Share/Teach/Learn

Youth training at Whitesides

I have been fortunate to be able to share my story, talk about (teach) what works for ME, and, yes, learn. In the first two weeks of this very New Year, TheFatGuy has been able to talk to kids and help them with healthy habits, as well as, appear on several radio programs talking about health and fitness through his story.

OK I have dealt with part of my Resolution list in my first 3 posts of the New Year below:

  • Lose 34.4 lbs by March 31
  • 150 straight reps of bleachers at Stoney Field (I've done over 100 in the past)
  • Log diet and exercise daily
  • No sugar in 2012! (this may be a lifetime decision!)
  • Schedule all of my time in my Android and stick to it

Now for the rest of my list and why it is important:

I can't because……

STONEY FLD BLEAHCERS

'I can't because' are the first three words in a sentence I have already heard too many times this year and I have used them many times in my life as it pertains to New Year's Resolutions.  January 10th and we are already giving up on fitness resolutions! Really!  I thought about these words long and hard as I approached the end of 2011 and knew I needed and wanted to change some things.  What are people doing to reach their goals and stick with their resolutions? What are they doing to sabotage themselves? What have I done in the past and why have I failed?

No sugar tonight in my coffee
No sugar tonight in my tea
No sugar to stand beside my
No sugar this year for ME!!!!!!!!
In my last post, '2012 was a great year!', I said one item on my New Year list might be more important to my success than ALL of the others. Well the lyrics above to the  Guess Who song pretty much spell it out. NO SUGAR for TheFatGuy in 2012 and probably NO SUGAR for life!
