well i had a good weekend. i got off early on friday and went straight home and started cleaning. i had a date on saturday and i knew she was going to be coming by so i didn’t want to have the place trashed. i kind of let it get out of whack over the past few weeks traveling home on the weekends and leaving the cleaning up to my roomie. let’s just say it was less then clean and leave it at that. so anyhow after cleaning for 2 hours i then worked out doing my lower body workout. during the workout my right knee was bothering me on my squats so i had to stop that exercise early and move on to the next one. i think the cleaning non stop for 2 hours kind of did it in. i did quite a few squats during the cleaning while i was doing the kitchen floor and bathroom. anyhow, other then that my workouts were great all week.


on saturday i had a date with amy. we started by going to tower records and shopping for music. we then went to lunch at uno’s, had some great pizza. after that we went to see the movie “gladiator”. i thought it was a pretty good movie, lots of action, blood, and killing. a bit much for a “date movie” but still it was a good movie. after the movie we went back to my place and hung out for a while just talking a lot, looking at pictures, watching some tv and just hanging out generally. i thought the evening went well over all. i was totally myself all day which felt good. i think she may have been uncomfortable with me being as outgoing as i am. some people mistake it for rude but that is never the intent. i know she is not really that comfortable around me yet, but it was the first date so i can’t expect miracles. anyhow, i have no idea on how to read any signals let alone the ability to read woman so she is in complete control of this one. at her pace, at her discretion, if she likes me or if she doesn’t, all i ask is her to be honest with me about that. anyhow, i gave her a small kiss goodnight and the evening ended.


on sunday i had my recumbent bike delivered that i bought saturday morning after stopping off at my local fitness experience. i am so glad that i have it now so i can exercise when i want to instead of when my lazy apartment complex decides to open the club house. later in the day i went to another movie, yea yea, i know i am an addict but anyhow. i saw “where the heart is”, it was pretty good. it had a few hot women in it and it was one of those heart tugging movies.


i updated my fitness timeline today with my progress. i missed my goal by a few times this past 6 weeks but i know i will hit the ones for the next 6 weeks. i am making great progress having lost 65 pounds on the program already. reinventing myself every day and trying to inspire others around me to get more into fitness. i actually got a friend at work, enrico, into going back to the gym. not on this program, but just getting back to the gym and getting into top shape. i love it when i can make a difference. my brother and christina finished their first week on body for life last week. they were pretty damn sore after the week was through. they had days where they could hardly walk let alone go to work. but if you ask them how they felt, if they enjoyed it, or if they were going to continue on it i am certain they would reply positively. together they would probably have problems finishing the program, together they are unstoppable, this i am certain of.


that about tops it off for the weekend and since i last wrote. next time …
