Aaron's Weight Loss Blog, Week 7

Wow, I feel like I've been rode hard, and put away wet! It has been a roller coaster 2 weeks since my last post, and things are going to start to get interesting now!

I took 3 scheduled days off from the program to celebrate Christmas. We ate crap, drank too much, and generally abused our bodies. That was in the plan. What WASN'T in the plan was waking up after the holiday weekend with a cold that has kept me out of the gym SINCE then!

I ran this morning before breakfast for an hour, but other than that, I haven't gotten any real exercise since Thursday, December 22nd! Although I did clean up my nutrition most of last week after the holiday weekend, and although I did work my butt off at work, I didn't step foot into a gym all week.

So, all of that being said, the damage wasn't as bad as I expected. My bodyfat only crept up 2/10 of a percent, to 14.3%. That means that I still get to wear my 25% pin. I would have been MOST irate if I had to take that off!!

Now, though, it is crunch time. The final weigh in/bodyfat check is Saturday, January 14th - my birthday. We are planning a big birthday/house warming party for that night, and I have to be the consumate picture of perfection by the time that evening rolls around.

I have already started the crunch time workout program, beginning with my run this morning. I will also be running again this afternoon with one of my clients, and I will be doing cardio again tonight after dinner.

Carbohydrates will be on an "as needed" basis between now and Saturday the 14th, and resistance and cardio training will both be at intense levels. Although I have seen this type of program in action before, I have personally never done it.

I will either lose a bunch of bodyfat, or I will die trying! Either way, Saturday night at the party, I am burying my head in a bowl full of pasta, washing it down with some Jack Daniels, and will then proceed to try and get a full-on game of Spin the Bottle going with the party guests.... ;)

Wish me luck, all - although I intend to create my own anyway!
