My Story

My name is Isaac. I am overweight. But I have a plan...

Eat better food.
Move - a lot.
Never give up.

This is not a temporary diet. This is my life. It's time to make new habits and drop the bad ones. I want to finally feel comfortable in my own skin, without the embarrassment that comes with the bulge.

I am not a nutritionist. I am not a registered dietician. I am just a man on a mission. And this is my online documentation of physical and mental transformation.

Why not start at the beginning?

DAY 23.3*

I was very anxious to use my new running watch for the first time today. I woke up bright and early at 5:30am, ate a big breakfast, worked for a bit, then hit the streets around 8am for a run. The sun was shining, the weather was warm, and I had a fresh new outlook on the day. I was determined not to let today be as miserable and depressing as yesterday. 4 miles and 36 minutes later I knew that I was going to have a productive and enjoyable day.

And you know what? I did.

The fact that it was also a high calorie day factored into my enjoyment too ;-)

Q: How do people run in pants and long-sleeved shirts, AND some of them in hats as well, when it's 65˚ out?

A: I don’t know. I ran 4 miles this morning along the East River in shorts and a tank top and was pretty well soaked (with sweat) by the end of it.

Decided I’m running the Fred Lebow Classic 5-miler. Who’s with me?! Nothing like racing on a chilly Saturday morning at 8 a.m., right? Um, yeah.

I ran in pants and long sleeves for the NYC half this year. I hate the sun :)

I also ran 4 miles this morning, around 8am in Prospect Park. I wore shorts and a Tshirt and was sweating my ass off.

I’m totally with you on the Fred Lebow Classic. I already signed up for it!

A. Some people wake up cold. [Though the hat is too much!]

A2. Some people don’t watch the weather.

A3. Not everyone is as hot as Laurel!

I would do the Fred Lebow, if I weren’t, you know, running a half marathon that day!

Excuses, excuses… ;-)
