So today, for me, was about getting back to as close to normal as I could get. I had to do a little improvising since I didn’t get a chance to grocery shopping this weekend. I think I did a pretty good job and I am feeling better about things.
Nicole picked up some groceries for me today, which will make tomorrow even better.

Today was a busy day. Ben and I started working on my very first Statement of Work… very exciting stuff. The discussion took most of the day.
Around 4:30 we finally left Dallas for Austin. I made it home aroud 8:15. It’s good to be back. Now I need to wrap my head around what it’s going to take to salvage the rest of my week. Tomorrow, after work, I need to hit the grocery store. I also need to sneak in a workout, but the workout might be carrying tubs downstairs. I know that sounds like a bit of stretch, but all I have to say is you come take a few trips… I know you’ll feel the burn. Then cook, cook, cook.
I am a little scared to get on the scale tomorrow. I know I made some poor choices these past few days and I am going to pay for them, but I hoping it’s not too detrimental to my progress.

I tried to eat a bit better today. I unfortunately didn’t make it to the fitness center. My late night last night had me exhausted and I wanted to get over to see Jassen again before I left. He gave me a nice office chair that he no longer wanted. We removed the base and got it the parts in the back seat of Nicole’s car.
Tomorrow Ben and I will be working from Dallas until we head home. (Not sure what time we are leaving) I am ready to get back in to my routine.

So I made it to Dallas and watched the Giants beat the Packers!!! Then afterward Jassen and I went to the bar and to celebrate. I didn’t get back to the hotel till very late… one might even call it early. So I am posting this a day late and back dating it. I admittedly went a little off the rails as far as diet goes these past few days, but I am not derailed. I will be getting back on track as soon as I get home and I will do my best to be good while I am still here. I might even hit the fitness center in the hotel.

Today I slept in later than I have in months. It was nice to get some rest, but I feel like I wasted a good chunk of the day.
I picked up my new glasses today. My eyes are still adjusting, but I really like how they look and I can definitely see better. Good stuff!!
I ran to Whole Foods and picked up a loaf of French Meadow’s Men’s Bread. I have had a slight craving for bread and I wanted to pick up a healthy version to scratch my itch. It’s pretty darn good. I had a couple slices with a bowl of Vegetable Beef soup for lunch.
Tonight Nicole and I went to see the movie Juno. I am bit disappointed with myself. I ate a bunch of popcorn and some candy, but oh well I am not going to beat myself up over it. One stumble isn’t the end of the world… I am sure there will be a few more over the next year.
Right now I am listening to the Juno soundtrack. It’s pretty damn good.

I am not usually excited for the weekend… no more than any other day. I enjoy my job and my coworkers, but lately I have been exhausted. We have been under some pretty tough deadlines for a while now and I think the stress is just wearing on me. So, today I am happy it’s Friday. Of course this is an odd weekend as Ben and I will be traveling to Dallas on Sunday afternoon since we have a customer meeting on Monday and Tuesday. Which means tomorrow will be spent running errands that need to be completed.
My new glasses are in. I will be picking those up tomorrow. If I get a chance I will snap a few shots to show the new glasses compared to the old. The new frames are kinda funky and I think fit my new attitude. As I start to lose weight I hope to slowly update my wardrobe from ratty programmer garb to something along the lines of nerd chic. Honestly I am not sure what that means, but I think when I find the style I am looking for it will be better than what I am doing now since I have no style at all.

Last Week: 331.0 lbs/BF%:40.9%
This Week: 327.2 lbs/BF%: 40.7%
Total: -3.8 lbs.
Wow! I guess I had a good week! I have no explanation as to why I lost so much weight…. my only thought is my body decided to finally let go a little.
Next week holds some challenges. I will be out of town for two and half days. I will try to knock out some body weight workouts in my hotel room if I have the opportunity and I will also do my best to make the healthiest food choices I can. I also won’t have much time to pre-make all my lunches. So wish me luck… next week is going to be tricky.

You might have noticed that there is something new in the sidebar. It’s an application we’ve been building on at work and now we are testing. When you click the “Record a Message” button it gives you a screen where you enter in you phone number and a short title for the message. After entering the information click the “Start Call” button. A short time later (30 seconds to 1 minute) you will receive a phone call at the number you entered. Leave your message and once I moderate it it will be displayed on the site. Everyone who visits the site will be able listen to what you have recorded so keep the subject of your message appropriate for all.
If you have any feedback please feel free to leave a comment on this thread and thank you in advance for helping us test.

Today was a 12+ hour day at work. I got home around 9:30 pm and helped Nicole make dinner.
The only thing exciting happening is I am finally seeing the movement in my weight I was shooting
for. Although some of it might be because I am slightly dehydrated. Right now I am just happy to
see the numbers going down. I do however need to get back to drinking more water.

It was just one of those days where I did the best I could. I worked late. I didn’t work out, but I did carry some stuff out to the garage and some stuff up from Nicole’s car which is a decent leg workout. So I am going to call it even…
I had left over beef and vegetable soup for dinner. It was excellent. It’s nice to have some healthy left overs in the fridge for nights like tonight where cooking is pretty much out of the picture.
