A new low! 161.6.
I think my new diet plan is working out. Its VERY simple, I just eat what I have *PLANED*...
I think that is what was lacking all this time -- a clear plan of attack. Now that I have one.
I'm unstopable!

it is getting boring tho ;)

I don't know what I'm doing for a workout today. I need to clean out my car, get a nasty old rug in there, along with other garbage, drive it down to iselin, dump it without arousing too much suspicion...
THEN I have to help Amy with random other stuff since her mother is moving tomorrow. I'm hoping to skate at some point, but I don't won't count on it.

**peace**

Here they are, must write more later, going to garage sales

Wow, my wart hurts (look a few posts ago), and my legs hurt. I had trouble getting my shirt off from all the sweat. I'm tired, I'm hot, I'm thristy.
but... DAMN, I haven't felt this good in YEARS!

I got my skates today (for my birthday - a present from the wonderful gf). I strapped them on and went out for a quick little skate. I forgot how wonderful it is.
I went to the only curb in the town (waxed), and busted my ass doing a Soul Grind, A SOUL GRIND, can you belive it? I must have looked like a fool - 27yrs old and skating like a punk.
Wow.

A little faster today... the pics came together pretty quickly, the only thing that took a lot of time this morning was going to the bathroom :)
I'm 165.5 today, thats great! I think this water weight is gone and now I can see what I can accomplish!
I really wish I had a scale that did .2lbs increments, mine only does whole and half pounds.
Well here they are - the daily numbers!:

I'm off to the gym, I think I'm going to do chest and tris today.
I need to post about XM - short version - IT ROCKS!

Today's Diet:
Today wasn't great. It started off with a bowl of kashi golean crunch (w/ vanilla soy milk). When I got to work I was starving, so I went to 711. I got a Nutri-grain bar and a thing of baby carrots and celery (didn't eat the ranch sauce). For lunch I had TWO PB&Js on potato bread with natural PB.
Those have to be about 450 each (Two slices @ 100 each, a TBLS of PB and the same of jelly).
So, I'm probably at about 1500 already on the day...

Woah...
this is crazy - I use dotster for all my domains, and Cory over at boingboing has this to say:
http://www.boingboing.net/2004/08/12/how_dotster_cost_me_.html

This is very discouraging. I haven't had problems with them, but with this tale of woe, I might be switching over.

Well, its 6:21am, and I'm up.
For some reason I woke up pretty earily this morning.
In any event, I'm a bit sore from yesterday's workout (I bet it was the dips), but I'm on my way out anyway ;) I think its another HIIT day - although I could make it a long cardio session.
I'm not sure, but with my skates coming soon, I might stick with HIIT at the gym and make long cardio my fun time.

Today's measurements are:
w:169.0
a:36.0
h:38.0
f:11.25
wr:7
pp:8.0
ap:27.0
tp:10.0
ft2:13.2

the only thing that changed were the fat caliper pinches... and I think I did them wrong yesterday - my bf was 13.2% on it today - and yesterday like 11% (It was the abdominal pinch that screwed me up)
that and my weight. I'm only a pound down from all the water weight, and I'm not going to let it get me down (3lbs higher then my lowest)

Ok, here was the workout today:
Pullup - upper arms parellel to ground! (getting close!)
Isolation Curl - 15lbs 3x5
EZ bar curl - 30lbs 3x5
Hammer Curl - 10lbs 3x5
Bench Dips - 3x15

as for the diet today:
oatmeal with brown sugar and cinnamon
some almonds, some cashews
some baby carrots.

Day 1:

Alright, well its not that easy getting up and working a camera, tape measure, and a pair of calipers.
Its now 7:18 and I'm JUST getting the pics uploaded - LAME.
I really need to streamline the whole process... but here are the measurements for today:
w:169.0
a:36.0
h:38.0
f:11.25
w:7
pp:9.0
ap:16.0
tp:14.0
ft2:11.4

Gotta run!

Ok, well my diet hasn't been too good lately. Sunday night: Pizza. Monday night: Pizza. Tonight: Cake and pasta (its my birthday)
This morning I did HIIT again, and it felt good, my legs are SHOT!
went to the doc today and I have a plantar wart on my foot - thats what's been hurting so much.

Here's the deal - sorry for the rambling post - but I got a lot in my head!
My next "phase" is 1 year. I am going from the day after my birthday (tomorrow), until my next birthday. I know that it won't be 100% effort as I get derailed easily, and I know that I'm going to change up my plan a million times! But I really want to see where I am in one years time.

I'm taking pictures tomorrow morning, and I want to see if I can take them every morning - we'll see how that goes. And seeing how I can't know what the next year will hold, I'm just going to stick to this whole plan as best I can.
Long term goals:
8 minute mile
20 dead hang pullups
> 10% bf
12inchs added to my vert. leap. (currently at 12 inches!)

We'll see what I can accomplish. For my b-day, my girlfriend got me skates, so I think cardio will be a MUCH bigger part of my plan!

Well thanks for reading, and wish me luck!

one more thing. I really think (and this is mostly for me, but applies to anyone I guess.) that in order for me to DO this... I mean REALLY do it. It needs to become a habit for me. My whole live I've lived in fear of habits. I've gone out of my way to avoid a routine b/c I know it will become my lifeblood. But I think I have to make this a habit - thats the ONLY way I'm going to accomplish all of my goals. I'm not the kid anymore who got so damn lucky to find something - that A) I was good at B) was really good for getting in shape (although I couldn't care less at the time) and C) I wanted to do ALL THE TIME.
I'm not saying thats not going to happen again - it VERY well may. But for me to make the changes I want - WHEN I WANT (aka - NOW), I need to make getting up every morning at the same time - coming to the computer, taking some pictures (2, 3?), uploading them (the croping I'm hoping to do automatically), posting a short entry, then going to the gym, coming home, showering - THAT has to become a habit for me. EVERY MORNING. no breaks. no excuses....
phew, this could be hard ;)
