Day 565

Less inspiration today unfortunetly, haven't really gotten into my groove with the writing thing . . . . still chopping out this arrangment of pensativa, not sure where exactly its going right now . . . hopefully tommorrow, more with that.

Workout was good today, still around 218-220 range. Had a great breakfast, cereal and cottage cheese followed by a lunch with a mini-pizza, brown rice, and green beans. After lunch, I had a crazy chocolate craving!! had to ignore that one, started nibling on some cereal to get my mind off of it. I must say though, its hard, i almost walked down the street to seven-eleven to get my twix . .. . ahh the tempations. ..

dinner is TBD, but probably pack myself a sandwich and some celery and carrots. hopefully that will be enough to get me through the teaching tonight - a long one, i think i got like 3.5 hours today. . .

Day 564

Goodness, such progress! This morning, went for a run in the bolsa chica preserve - its so nice out there, really had a great time. Hopped on the scale today and saw a 218! i can't believe it, im back to where i once was - - now i really wanna see some results this week - although my mom is coming to town on thursday, i musn't let her destroy my trajectory!!! hahaha

Tonight, planning on seeing the LAGQ after a gig in san diego, its on my way back up.

Day 563

March has been madness alright, no luck with the weight loss yet this month. I started off on the wrong foot, on the first, after entering in my blog.

This week was alright, i did rather well - but im pretty convinced that regardless of what you eat when you eat out, you're never helping your diet. I can't budge beyond my current weight!! this is so agrivating. I guess this week, its gonna be worth it for me to really count the calories. I have 20 weeks before i leave on tour, my goal is to have lost 20 pounds by then - i wanna see 190-200 by the time i leave on tour. I guess the inspiration of knowing ill need new clothes and the such is good enough for me.

Im getting nervous about this summer and fall - its looking a lot like last summer's plans. Ill leave on tour, then get back and have no idea where to live or what to do. Im pretty much done with the idea of teaching.

The unknown . . . and yet, these are the glory years.

Still, i wanna get down 45 more lbs, and lose anywhere from 8 to 10 inches off the tummy. Why is my excersizing not working for me?

Here we go again. . . . . . . . .

Day 546

Nice to know that today, march 1st has come. I've lost over 15 pounds since christmas, and working on losing another 5 pounds this month. With the mixes of the new west record taking up most of my day, im working on focusing my efforts a bit more into my own compositions as well.
