The last 3 weeks

Weeks, 19, 20, 21 -

I did some traveling the past 3 weeks (was away from home for a total of 10 days). During this time, I tried to play by the rules...but only did an average job of eating right, hitting the gym, etc., etc.

Anyhow, during the past 3 weeks, I probably did B-/C+ job. Partially because there was no gym at my disposal most of the time and partially because I was in the mid-west (land of delicious comfort food) with no planned grocery shopping/recipes ready to go for the week. It was a little tough getting back into the swing of things last week, but I think I did a much better job leading up to the end of my 4-week arc.

Just as a reminder - I planned out 4 weeks of eating right, working out (with increasingly hard work outs), and whatnot - with out any weigh-ins. This last Saturday was the final day of the 4 weeks...and I weighed in at 190 lbs. So, I pretty much maintained the 30 lbs loss. Which isn't too bad for the average effort I put forth. I just don't want to be all fat-assy and whatever. Here's hoping I can stick with it.

Next up - a couple of weeks of interval training designed at hitting the FAT. There is still some left and the intervals make for a good way to bridge work out arcs. So, I started intervals last night.

Also, soccer was a good time this last weekend (missed 2 weeks w/ travel). This weekend was the last day of the session - with no new session in site - and we had 'play-off games. It was all set up like the first rounds of the world cup and we had to play a little round-robin action. This meant we had at least 6 games ahead of us. If we win, we play more. Unfortunately, we sucked rocks and lost ALL 6 GAMES! Wow, not so good. But whatever, I had a really good time and the guys on the team are a lot of fun. It was tough taking the loses, but was fun enough to make me want to keep playing.

FINALLY -
With the idea of making this whole thing a permanent life change, I will probably be winding down the blog real soon. I am going to put together some before/after pics and what not. So, for those of you that still care...stay tuned for the last update!

I guess I am the only one still looking at this blog. Are you going to post pictures or what? Quit jacking around.
