My New Years Resolution

Hello everyone! My name is Pawel and I am a 28 year old guy from Staten Island. If you can't tell I have made a New Years resolution...to get fit!
I know this is something countless people do every single year but believe it or not this is honestly the first time I have ever made this my resolution.

HOW? you ask. Well its simple.. I have always been a healthy person, always trying to keep fit with running or any activity.

WHY now? Well first let me tell you my former working out habits. About two and a half years ago i was driving and hit a pot hole and felt my belly jiggle a little, after that I joined a gym and worked out every day. after about 6 month I saw some major changes. I wasn't the only person to notice either, the ladies noticed too! (it felt awesome). I was doing great in the gym, until one November day i felt a strain in my shoulder, I tore a ligament. As soon as this happened I first said "I'll take a little time off to let it heal", but that turned into "I'll go back tomorrow". Well now its been a years worth of "tomorrow" and I feel like I am heavier than I ever was.

WHY blog about it? Well as I get older it is harder and harder to get motivated to move my ass.
SOoo I am airing this in public in hopes that it will motivate me and hopefully motivate someone else out there.

MY GOALS!
I wish i can just throw a number at you and say I want to get rid of 10 pounds but that's not how my body works. My current weight is 195, my weight at my 6 pack abs best was....wait for it.....195. So I don't have  number in my mind. I will track my weight just to show people that the number is not always important, hopefully people will notice a weight increase but I'll be leaner and meaner.

So my goal is to be able to look at myself and feel proud again.
I also want to beat my time in a marathon I raced in 2 years ago.

WHAT TO EXPECT
I'll post photos of myself over time to show how things are coming along.
Track the numbers like weight and inches (hopefully get body fat percentages)
I'll post my meals, hints, workouts, all my aches, pains, successes and set backs. (I'm human, not some rock hard nut case that takes getting yelled at in the face for motivation)

Well... Wish me luck
PJ
