Let us begin

So far so good. I'm a bit sore but thats to be expected. Carla has joined me in the initial training. I love having her do this with me. Her encouragment is necessary.
I have started out doing a 16 day beginner cycle of crossfit. I'm on day 3. I'm not paying too much attention to my weight loss at this point. My main concern is that I get into a habit before my usual (give up) takes over. Its going to be hard. Its going to be painful. I'm going to want to give up but I have to remain strong. I'll get some pics up soon. My weight at the start was 343. So, if you happen upon my blog, any encouraging words are... encouraged.

    Crossfit is awesome! Been doing it for about a year and a half now. Having someone (Carla) or a group of people to do it with is a must in order to get the momentum going. Are you doing the workouts of the day from their website, or going to an actual crossfit gym? I'd be more than willing to jump in on a workout with you. They're a lot more fun when you're doing them with others. Strength in numbers baby!

    One website that I always get fitness encouragement is nerdfitness.com (if that helps).

    :)

    This is awesome Jeff! I've never heard of Crossfit, I'm going to have to google that.

    You can do it! I'm glad Carla is jumping in and doing it with you, what a great thing to do together :)

    Jeff, you're welcome :) The shape you're in now has no bearing on how good the workout will go. The great thing about crossfit is that it's humbling no matter what a person's level of fitness is. Nate K has some tractor tires in his shed. Let's get together on one of your days off and kill ourselves for the cause :)

    That sounds like a plan. We're out of town the next few weekends but I am going to take you up on that! Hope all is well. Praying for you guys and your dad.
