I've been eating too much, and not so healthy food choices for a while now.
It's time for me to get back in gear now.
Starting tomorrow, I'm going back on the 2000 cal a day diet with 2 work outs a day.
I'm going to start incorporating some jumping rope into my afternoon work outs, too.

That should be fun. I'm going to push it, so I can be ready for my trip in March to China.

I have to be in good shape if I'm going to visit the Shaolin Temple.
I might even go and visit master Lee in Seattle on the way.

OK! LET'S DO IT!!!

I had lasik surgery on my eyes last week on Thursday.
I'm pretty much fully recovered and I now have 20/15 vision, pending nothing changes anytime soon.

It still feels weird. I feel like I should be taking out my contacts before I go to bed, or things just seem a bit too clear.

Is this really how everyone else sees the world with 20/20 vision all the time?

I suppose I'll get use to it with time...

Is an excellent exercise. I tried it out tonight after a loooong time.
I'm sore as heck now. I must do more.

Went to the gym today for my evening work out.
Did the 1000 kick 2000 punch routine in the aerobics room.
I used 3 pound weights for all my punches, and it made a heck of a difference.
Slowed me down quite a bit, but it was a better work out over all.

I look forward to next time.

8 min mile on ze treadmill today. Had to push a while to secure that time.
It's going to be tough to get down to 7.
Probably won't be til sometime next year.

Starting tomorrow, I will increase my work out routine by waking up at 4:30 instead of 5:30 and then jogging to the gym to arrive by 5, work out until 6:30 and then jog back.

Afternoon, I'll try to keep up an hour work out or so.

Over all, I want to keep 3 hours per day minimum.

We'll see how it works out.

So I was running back from the Gym this morning, and when I approached the newly restored gate at my apartment community, a kid slid underneath the gate and opened it up for me.

What a nice little booger. Probably about 8 or so. Very unexpected.

I was kind of expecting to have to jump/clamber over the gate.

Til next time, I suppose...

2 miles in 17:40! W007!

It was raining this morning, so I drove to the gym and ran some on the treadmill. I did a mile in just under 9 min! Woot!
I woulda never thunk it a year ago.

Yay for progression!

just wanted to update before I forgot. I did 10 pull ups in a row this morning! woot! improvement coming along nicely.
I'm still gaining weight instead of losing, though. lol
