...

I have lapsed into not writing again, after a nice little burst of activity the few weeks prior.

There are some interesting and possibly exciting things going on in my life right now... some of which I have written about and then deleted because sometimes it takes me a while to realize that some things should not be put in a public forum, no matter how small the group of people who read it regularly is.

You'd be surprised on some of the google searches that lead people to my website.

Anyway - I think that maybe I will have some time to start writing again soon, but maybe not.

I plan on spending the next two weeks going absolutely nuts - I'll be going home to PA two weeks from today on the 21st. I probably plan on working out 25 times or so in the next two weeks, before I take that entire weekend off - I'm feeling crazy.

There will be changes on the other side of the trip. For one, it's going to start getting too cold to keep up my routine, probably much sooner than I would like. For another, I'm thinking of letting myself have some fun again.

I'm not losing any weight the last two weeks, but this is mostly a failing of my metrics and methods of success than anything else. I have been lifting a lot and have regained a great deal of my lost strength. I look and feel like I'm in better shape... my clothes are getting looser, but I'm not losing any weight. And here's where I screwed up - I chose weight in pounds as my only metric of success/failure on my little experiment. And that is now proving to be a mistake. So despite the fact that I'm doing positive things, I have no measurable way to prove it.

The timing of the weight lifting and where my weight was in relation to my 200 pound goal is going to make getting to that barrier much sweeter because I've been hovering around 203-205 pounds for two-three weeks now despite getting thinner.

See, this is my life in a nutshell lately. I planned on writing a little something about how I'm not writing too much lately and plan on writing more and I end up writing about fitness/exercise.

I need to break the bubble.
