One week in

Well. i couldn't drag me out of bed this morning in time to swim, but i plan on either a swim or run after class this evening. i did, however, weigh this morning before i got dressed, and i'm down to about 192 on the br scales. So i've lost at least 10lbs in the last week, even if my scales are not terribly accurate. Now, granted, that's almost certainly mostly water weight, but it's water weight i've needed to lose. And if i have to lose 12 more lbs of water to get down to 180, then i'll still be climbing v7. Gravity, in my estimation, doesn't care what the mass is made of. But i can also pinch a lot less blubber, and that's encouraging. The rings came in yesterday, but i haven't had time to set 'em up yet. i'm kinda' amped 'bout that. A video came with it made by these Romanian guys--one of which was a world champ rings guy in '03ish--and it convinced me that i will soon be doing handstand pushups on the rings. Even though i can't do one up against a wall. i'll get a record for being the fattest guy to ever do an iron cross. Nice rings though. Gotta say the whisky in the pantry and the beer in the fridge call to me, and the homemade ice cream and chocolate give me pangs of lust occasionally, but i am digging feeling as good as i do, and i'm digging seeing some results on the weight loss front. i am gonna have to figure out how to make big parts of my meals ahead of time though. Shouldn't be hard; i just haven't had to do it yet. But i was late to class this morning, so i'm gonna hafta work that out.
