It's tuesday and this week it falls on gym day. I do feel motivated today so that is good. I have been doing the gym routine every other day since mid December, and I think its going well. There were a few days here and there that i slipped, but overall I have stuck with it.

Only problem is I seem to be gaining weight rather than losing it. Perhaps I need to change my diet or eating habits around. When I started in December, my weight was 200lbs, give or take a few each day. But since January, I have shot up to 220lbs. Weird.

I suppose its muscle. I mean, I do look better, I have slimmed down some, and everyone is noticing the change. Everything I have to wear is starting to get a little tight on the chest and arms. And theres a few I can't fit into anymore. I would really like to go down to 190lbs, getting down to 185lbs is stretching it i think. I even changed my workout routine, but so far nothing has worked. At least I dont look fat. hahaha. I hope I dont have to change my eating habits. I like my eating habits, and its not like I eat a lot of junkfood. I usually avoid them except for the usual cravings every other week.

Anyways, I'll check with the trainer at the gym and see what he says.

So the goal from now to June: Lose 2 inches off the waist, add an 1 1/2 inches to chest, and an inch to arms.

I think I can do it, I know I can!

(Wish me luck)

This is my first posting, though I have had the account for awhile. I just didn't have the time or interest to write down anything at the moment.

The week has been starting off well. Tried to do a posting on my myspace account, but thats always a crapshoot on whether it'll work or not.

Spring is here, so they say, but its been pretty wintry here in Chicago. Actually, I would still think it is winter the way it kinda snowed last week, and the temperature being under 40 degrees (f). Mayhaps spring will be skipped over right into summer this year?

My vacation is in 2 weeks and I have no idea what I will be doing. i have planned on going to Vancouver for a few days, but things just keep creeping up on me. I just realized that I have a lot of crap to do. I should have planned this months ago, but nothing is more fun then spontaneously flying somewhere. Even if its just for dinner.

I still have to plan my trip back to Scotland this year. Thats what I did last year for my end of April vacation trip. Had a great time seeing old friends and meeting new ones. Expensive though, especially with the us/gbp exchange rate. Yikes.

Anyways, back to more pondering and figuring out what to do. It's tough.
