Well I knew it was coming, my wife’s grandfather passed away last Wednesday and we went to Louisianna for the funeral.  So I missed 4 straight days in the gym and a whole lot of Southern Louisianna food.  No surprise I come back a few pounds heavyier then when I left. All in all a good trip, noone was really down too bad.  More of a celebration of his life then sadness for his parting.  Anyway so it’s back at it today.

We had our first softball game last Wednesday and I’m glad it was an exibition cause we were sucking it up.  Couldn’t hit, couldn’t field.  To say we were rusty would be an understatement, corroded is more like it.  The real season starts this coming Wednesday so we’ll see how we do then. 

Well with the great feeling of accomplishment that I had at the end of January, I am now feeling utter discust.  The last 2 1/2 weeks have not lost a pound.  I changed a few things in my diet and with my workouts.  I think I’m going to change them back to what they were. I’m not all that depressed about it, I never thought I’d lose as much as I did right off the bat.  Ok and to be honest, I’ve been slacking on the cardio.  At least I can look back and see what I’ve been doing wrong and change it.

March comes in with some of it’s own challanges.  I’ve got to go to Louisianna at some point I think to visit my wife’s family.  That will be time away from the gym and more than likely some bad eat’n.  Gotta enjoy it while I’m there.  Plus softball starts on the 14th.  We’ll be defending our championship title.  Well not really, we moved up a division from the Rec league to Competative.  Or D to C in most softball leagues.  I’ll keep posting the a$$ whoopin’s we hand out.  If we loose, I might even post those….maybe.

 Man, I thought I’d be closer to 260 by now………..:(
