My name is Adam Sipes and I am going to chronicle the daily struggle of what it takes to lose wieght, manage Grad school, a full time job, and a social life at the same time. My best friends and I, Who all live in the same house, are going to attempt to change our lives for the better. This will be done by eating better, drinking less, exercizing, and generally being nice people. This life change is going to start on Monday March 15, 2010. Hence the name "Life changing Mondays." The blog will consist of all my emoitions as I feel them, (and have time to write about them), and anything else that i think is pertinent in the life changing process. Our goal is to run a marathon in ones years time. We are shooting for the Las Vegas Rock-N-Roll marathon next year. So in saying that, leave any comments you want, good or bad, because they will all be fuel for the fire.

Hitting my first wall…

I know, i know, i havnt posted in a while but i swear to you all i can explain. The biggest reason as to why i havnt posted is because it has been the last few weeks of class for me this semester. And ofcourse all of my fuckhead professors get some sort of sick and perverted enjoyment out of piling all the work on at the very end. I swear they get together on weekends, have drinks, and tell jokes at their students expense. Anyways, i digress. Needless to say i have been pretty swamped with school work. But not to fear! I havnt missed a work out yet. I feel pretty good about this.

But i do have to be honest, i am starting to really dread working out and really not wanting to do it. Like the title of this blog, i am hitting my first mental block. I have been eating really good this entire time, but i slipped up a bit today. I was hanging out with a couple of close friends of mine, and one of them got me a bacon wrapped hotdog out of the kindness of his heart. I didnt know he had got it for me until he handed it to me. It was one of those awkward moments where i knew i shouldnt have taken it, but i didnt want to offen my friend for getting it for me. I ate the fucking shit out of that hotdog. It was like losing my virginity all over again. Yeah it was that god damn good. I felt really guilty afterwards though. I still feel like about it. But i worked out extra hard tonight so maybe that will help with it. Im thinking ill go for an extra run tomorrow aswell because of it.

Im definetly losing weight which is a good thing. In fact, its the biggest reason as to why im doing this. I have aimed toward running my first 5k race on may 8th. That race is gonna be a bitch, only comparable to my sister and mother and their monthly meetings with the red demon.

Its one o’clock in the morning and im as tired as two hampsters who just got done fucking in a whool sock. I could be at my frat house right now having fun, where their happens to be a live band, but i chose to come home and work out instead. What the hell is going on with me? maybe this change is gonna actually work after all. Only time will tell. By the way, im on day 14. May god have mercy on my soul. Cheers for now.
