Welcome to my Fitness Blog
- Michael Tresp
- Hello.....
I am a man from Dallas, Texas (smile when you say that). Born and bred third generation and damn proud of it! I moved to Abu Dhabi, UAE in the Middle East on September 25, 2010 to start working on a major hospital project in downtown Abu Dhabi, the Sheikh Khalifa Medical City. Reason for this move was to have an adventure, make more money and try to pay off the debt of 3 children's education at Texas A&M... WHOOP!
I am married to Joy, the most wonderful woman in the world. Been so since 1980 that is 30 plus years. She is my love, my life, my everything. I have 3 wonderful successful children Jessica, Chelsea and Gregory.
This blog is way over due -- I was going to start it last year recording my new adventures in a new world. But I got busy and did not start until today September 1, 2011. It will be a blog to record the adventures and quirks of Abu Dhabi. Plus the blog will be a new motivation to me to get back in shape after nearly a year of sedentary life style. Ref "50yearoldfatmanproject"
So sit back and maybe enjoy my boring adventures of Michael Xpat.

OK ......... I know I have not blogged since Wednesday the 21st way to long..........but I have been working pretty hard on the fat man project. I as well as you were getting bored of the same old stuff I had been posting.
So......to update you.....Every day I have done the stairs, push ups (100+-), & at least an hour work out in the evening.
The work out is so important right now. If I am to make anymore progress.
I am eating pretty well. Except for the wonderful bread that Joy keeps making.
I will have to make some sacrifices. Which is really hard. Since I found out about select 55 Budweiser great beer .......... taste good & can you believe it it is only 55 calories x 6 = 330 calories 1.9 carbs. WOW !

Oh yea... got up early again like 7:00 put in the sliding shelf thing in the kitchen cabinet. Cleaned pick up the garage then worked out for more than an hour.
I have hit pretty close to my target weight. It is very hard to lose much more. I have started working out pretty hard. Trying to develop T30X my version of P90x, & Insanity. That will come with time.
Remember I am not a professional trainer. But I know what is good for me. If you want to do something similar then great.
Now check this out. I worked out all morning a good 2 hours if not more. Took a shower before going to the horse races at Lone Star. Charlan Sue was running in the 7 race.
Weighed myself at 12:00 pm at 212.00 looks good, feel good, & smells good.
So I get to the races get settled an had the buffet great food Roast beef, Sea food, cheese, veggies, ice cream, chocolate strawberries, etc. etc....... lots of food. Cost 28.00 so I was going to get a least that much out of it.
Got home at 8:00ish get ready for bed weighed in OMG............225.7
