I am back up to 212.0

Ridiculous!

I think I gained a little muscle weight from riding mountain bikes the last 2 weeks.

Otherwise, I just haven’t eaten right. I am back on today though, and pretty seriously back on.

I have a vacation coming up in July to Pismo Beach, and then Hawaii in August so between now and then I really want to reach my goal of 190. That means super lean diet and continue the biking.

April 10th I was 201.4

Now almost a month later I am back up to 209.

Between then and now I have basically taken a vacation to Mojave and then lost my 1 year old English Bulldog puppy to an unfortunate accident on the vet’s part. The Mojave part just threw a curve ball at my daily habits – and post vacation depression set in. And then losing your puppy so suddenly doesn’t help either. So up until last night I was straight binging on everything but alcohol (I am wise enough to stay away from that when I am emotionally unstable).

Well here’s the sob story, the really sucky part about my situation.

My dog cost me a ton of money. He cost us our summer fun fund and even the next 2 summer fun funds. I mean the money that you would normally spend in the summer on stuff like new running shoes, a bike, trips to the beach, etc. Plus, we already booked a trip to Hawaii in Augusts which is 3/4 paid for. Therefore, we are broke. I had plans to purchase a new mountain bike right before he died – which is now out the window. I need new running shoes, also questionable. Pretty much anything over that 100.00 mark right now is frustrating unjustifiable.

Therefore, right when I am ready to kick it up a couple of gears and start exercising daily I find myself without the tools or equipment needed.

I am not ready to give up. I may be borrowing a bike soon, and actually I may after some amount of prayer sill spend about $500.00 on a bike from Sport Chalet. As far as running shoes, I don’t know if I have a choice.

This is going to be the week of decisions. I need to decided before the middle of May what I am going to do so that I can at least start some sort of exercising.
