This was an OK week.  I was able to go to on a two mile run on Sunday, the Y on Monday, Kickboxing on Tuesday, Kickboxing and two karate sessions Thursday, and then the 3 mile walk of dimes today.  Hopefully next week will be better exercise wise.  I slacked off a little this week since I weighed in on Tuesday since I was on call and had a good possibility of going to work on Saturday (which I ended up doing).

Not much to say this week.  I did a little over time each day this week so I wasn't able to make it to the Y after work (I draw the line at a 19 hour day).  Hopefully this week will be better- Tuesday is my weigh in so wish me luck.

I need to go buy new underwear.  I realized this yesterday when I was at the Y running on the treadmill and my underwear kept scooting down.  Notice how I didn't say my pants- I fixed that problem last week by shopping in my closet for a smaller size.  

So I guess you can say I am starting to feel the effects of my new lifestyle.  I am right on track.  I have lost my 5% (I am now 160.2) to stay in the contest and am now working on my 10% which means I have to weigh in at 155.5 at the next weigh to meet my personal goal.  It will be a little hard for me this month since I only have until April 23rd since I will not be able to make the April 27th weigh in and 4 days makes a big difference sometimes.  

I know I can do this if I really try since I am now adjusted to my new work schedule, and have made it to the Y after work twice this week even if it means putting in a 17 hour day.  But getting the weight off is worth it.

Finally a quick shout out to my nephew Chris Warneka- CONGRATULATIONS!  He has been accepted to his dream school and will have the best 18th birthday present anyone can ask for.  He will be moving into his dorm at the University of Dayton that day.  

I just got back from vacation earlier this week and I have to say I am proud of myself.  I didn't gain any weight on vacation and I even worked out on the boat a few times.  I am not going to hit my goal of 155 tomorrow on the scale (I slacked off a little) since I will be wearing my weigh in clothes- jeans, t-shirt, and shoes....however when I weigh in on my bathroom scale I am almost there.  Next months weigh in for sure.  Slow and steady wins the race.

See everyone tomorrow.
