Go ninja, go ninja go!

First and foremost, I'm currently watching Ninja Turtles II while I blog. So, please don't judge. When I was little I used to have a ton of these -- and I mean a ton. A huge bagful. At some point, I'd like to give them to my kids. Granted, TMNT may be nonexistent when I have kids, if I do (ladies, I'd like two please)!

I know I've already failed my 2-3 followers and I'd like to apologize. I'm sure you guys are super upset and for that I apologize. You guys have not missed a whole lot -- that I can promise you.

I'd first like to keep you updated on my meals.

On Wednesday I had grapes for breakfast (one of my favorite fruits), a leftover Navaho Taco from Carlos o' Kellys (I know that isn't super healthy, but it was a relatively small portion), a couple of pepperjack cheese (the best cheese in the universe) sticks while at work. For dinner I had a couple of bratwursts and some chips. I managed to drink water all day, which isn't a feat to most. I know a lot of that doesn't seem like super health food to you guys but compared to what I've been eating lately it is.

Today I had some more grapes for breakfast, a banana nut muffin. I certainly cheated during lunch -- and I attribute that to a stressful day at work and a time crunch. I had some Sonic and a cherry limeade. The whole purpose of me starting to eat healthy is to avoid pop (or soda. for you "different" people) and fast food. I crumbled today and looking back at it I'm upset with myself. For dinner I had a salad. I wasn't super hungry for dinner because I've been stressed out and actually had a slight headache this evening. I never get headaches.

So, there you have it. That's what I've eaten the past couple of days. A lot of iffy items, but much better than what I've been chowing down on the past month or so. I'm going to take my weight on Monday -- I should do this prior to Halloween because I intend on consuming a lot of alcohol. So, I will post my weight for everyone in the world to see. Please be nice. Allowing people, whether it be my friends, family or strangers see my weight will be more motivation to lose the lbs. Also, for those of you not in the know -- I'm going to be Alan from the Hangover, and my accomplice (my best buddy) is going to be Carlos. Well, an overgrown Carlos with some facial hair (it's pretty much baby fuzz). If I don't see you guys that night I'll be sure to post some pictures on here for you to laugh at. But, in closing, I'd love to leave you guys with this:

If you didn't enjoy that, please check your pulse.

Hope you enjoyed my second biz-log.

Have a good night all,
CJT.

An introduction, if you will.

It's 12:46 am and I have to be at work in less than 7 hours. I'm no insomniac, by any means. Just have a lot of random things on my mind for no reason. So, I decided to create a blog about me, how my life revolves around my family, and the path to weight loss. Please, follow me -- if you have nothing better to do.

Well, my name's Cody, twenty-five year old bachelor who lives on his own and works full-time. Pretty standard single male -- love sports, beer, pretty ladies and playing video games. I'm also very family-oriented, they come before anything in life, even God. But, that's a topic to be discussed at a later date. Please don't judge me after my previous sentence, it's just the truth.

Basically in this blog (my own online diary; I've never had one of these!) I'm going to track things I run across (women, or lack thereof, my process in weight loss, etc). I know you all must be thinking this is some sort of self-loathing blog -- but it's really not. This is just giving me a means of communicating my thoughts in life and potentially communicating them with people in the same shoes, or have been once before.

I say this a lot, and I may be the best procrastinator (if there's such a thing) in the world. But, tomorrow I'm going to begin to eat healthier, and at least start walking. At one point in my life I gave up beer for 4 months straight. That wasn't nearly tough as I originally thought as I'm not a hardcore partier like some of my friends. I tend to think I'm super mature (not saying they're immature at all) for my age. I just enjoy a nice night with my cousins (lil' Cody/Bobby), or a night watching Swamp People, American Pickers, or Pawn Stars with my family. If any of you say these shows suck I will come find you and smack your face. Okay, just kidding.

So, please, feel free to venture with me into becoming a responsible, healthy adult. I will try to update this as often as I can -- not to annoy you guys but to track things I've come across; or a potential food diary for my own good. So, it begins tomorrow.

Goodnight folks,
Cody the n00b blogger.
