Day 411

After a week of great performances with New West and my quartet, plus great rehearsals on friday, teaching on thurs and sat as normal, id say it was a pretty productive week for me. Im very happy with how things are coming together in the guitar quartet - it seems that we will really have our stuff together for the new record. Music wise, im getting ready for another heavy week - three days teaching, a casual gig, two musical gigs (which are gonna be really challenging - that book is tough!), and a David Pritchard concert which I really need to shed for!

On the flip side, I decided to take a complete break from working out so in general i felt like crap. I also took time away from my diet plan which I think was good because my current diet plan wasn't working out very well for me anyway. I went to Trader Joe's today and I think ill be set for the week, i got some really great stuff.

Today is day 1 of 40, whereby in six weeks I want to complete the abs diet program. Ive had the book since summer and I haven't really launched myself yet - but im really gonna try it this week. After writing this entry im gonna plan out my schedule for the week and get it planned! thats how we do it!

My current weight is around 220, my goal is 200-205 by Jan 1, 190 by 3/07, and 173-178 by 12/07. Im thinking long term here! I know its monotonous to keep writing the goal, but thats what i started the blog for anyway!

Cheers!
