Well, I have maintained my weight since Nov 6th. I remain in the 167 lb area over and through the holidays. I would really like to get the last 20 lbs off, but I do like where I am at right now. I could stand to lose some more belly fat, and arm fat, yes. But I am having a great time in my life right now. I am dating someone, who is nice to me, pays for things, is very attentive. My family is currently living with me, Mom, Dad, Ben and Kathleen, all together here in my 3 bedroom house! They sold their house and are currently looking for a new one. Between that, dating somone, trying to finish up with my educational program, it;s been a real challenge to find time to get to the gym. I have also been sick. I started running fevers the Friday before Christmas, and was off work (owing to all the strict restrictions about H1N1) until Christmas Eve. I still feel a little run down, probably due to the fact that I had both a viral and flu infection at the same time. I guess I needed to slow down though. Robert took care of me and spent a lot of time with me too, which was very nice. He's a good guy.
My first workout in a while was yesterday. I did 20 minutes on the elliptical, some ab work and some weights. I kept having to take breaks in my cardio because I just did not have the strength to make it be a long intense workout. Forced interval training is what you'd call that! :)
Well, I am not displeased. I maintain, and maintaining without any gaining is better than where I started out a year ago this time. It's a great new year, and when some of these lifestyle things settle down, I will get back into the swing of trying to get this last 20 lbs off! Life is sweet!
