I want to lose weight, get in shape, and open up a Crossfit box, which is a gym, on the west side of Cleveland. My goal is for Jan. 2011. For those that don't know what Crossfit is, I encourage you to check out Crossfit.com. Even then, until you experience it, you won't understand.
I know that losing weight is not easy for anyone. Being in better shape not only will improve my health, but it makes my job easier also. I think that writing about it holds me accountable and more likely to stick to it. Plus, if I want to open a Crossfit gym, I have to get my butt in shape. Nobody wants to go to a gym run by a fat guy.
Growing up, people would tell me, you don't look fat, you are just a big guy. I even have had friends tell me, your the fittest fat guy I know. While I don't consider myself a fat slob, I am not even close to where I would like to be. By following a zone/paleo type diet and through Crossfit workouts I am hoping to reach my goals.
Aiming for Jan. 2011 gives me about a 9 month time frame to get my sh*t together. So Monday, 3/29/10 the journey begins.
