Well today was my day 2 back on the X. Ouch why does it alway have to hurt all the time!!!!
Yesterday and today I woke up at 5am, worked out showered shaved, ate breakfast...and went back to sleeep..lol but at least I have the workout done and over with. And its not like I'm able to go to sleep, just my legs are really sore so it was mostly a "just lie there and try not to move to much" kinda rest. Right now i'm wieghing around 183. Thats way better than the 200 I started with when I first moved up here a year and a half ago, but not were my goals are. I just need to keep at it.
First 2 weeks are always the hardest right.....
My goals this time are to loose another 20 pounds, and to add 5-10 pounds of muscle. So if i can get to the 165/170 range with good definition I'll be happy.

A year in Review
Well I haven't Bloged on here in FOREVER, but I guess now is as good a time to catch up.
What have I been Doing....
Judo Update....
I was doing amazing, I was going to Judo 2X a week Tuesdays and Friday for 2 months solid! BUT.......Doing that kinda made me loose my routine with the P90X, it was just to hard to keep both going. I wasn't waking up early to work out, I would get off work of a very stressful day, and then drive 35 mins to Fort Collins and do Judo, and then it just kept getting darker and darker eariler and eariler. I lost the wieght I gained from when I quit doing the X back in May. Judo is a great Full Body workout. But.......Winter hits early in Wyoming.
Weather has been a constant BITCH this year. Last year was no where near this bad. Roads are closed all the time, and look at me i'm making excusses!FUCK
Needless to say, I haven't done Judo in over a month, going on 2 months. I'm down 20 pounds from when i first moved to Wyoming, so i'm basically at where I was in May, without the tone and definition.
New year new goals right.
Looking back at my past blogs are a great way to gain perspective of where I was and where I am. I'm starting the X back up I've desided on Jan 4th. Its a Monday when I get back from Christmas. As before I dont have many travel plans during the time I am going to do this, but this time i'm not going to get over zelous and try to do to many things at one time. I should finnish mid April, in time to be well on my way of a 2nt round before Summer even gets here.
And when summer arrives I'll try to pick Judo back up because I really did have a great time doing it.
Well I hope everyone is having a good break, and a very merry christmas and happy new year. I know the weather is frightful, so I hope you all find a fire thats delightful somewhere else.
Wish me Luck on Jan 4th

Day 15.5
Just got back from Judo.......yeah...........I think I'll feel this tomorrow.
Basically all I did for 2 hours tonight was fall down...over and over and over again learning how to disipate my energy when I hit the ground.....yeah about as much fun as it sounds....
workout wise, it kinda reminded me a little of the first time I went snowboarding, falling down again and again...having to pick your self off and keep at it. I sweat, I sweat alot. My Gi also came in today. Basically its this Karate type garb but for one BIG difference. Being made for Judo it wieghs alot. I mean this thing wieghs about as much as a lead vest I have to wear when i'm in radiology. its like 30 freak'n pounds! So yeah I sweat alot in it.
The Dojo I'm in is kinda funny. Its literally in this guys Garage okay no joke. I pull up with my Garmin all telling me where to go look arounds and i'm like WTF where is this place. I "walk" around the block and then when I get back to my car i'm like FUCK. then I look across the street and there is this guy with his Gi on...in a garage.....lol I'm like OH MY GOODNESS WHAT IS THIS GETTO JUDO????? I go in, and in the back of this buisness building "for constructions i'm guessing" is a DOJO that looks ligit inside, just kinda funny is all.
well I'm out day 15 is Fin

Day 15
Well woke up at 5:30, got the X done. Showered, shaved, ate, now getting ready to go to work. Got Judo for the first time tonight so well see how that goes.... Maybe I'll get all pissed off at work today then go do Judo and just kick ass.....but i'll probably just get my ass kicked.
So far so good, workouts are going well. This weekend was alittle light, went to the lake so diet sucked and workout (its aworkout just being a the lake) was so so. But now i'm back and doing doubles in the morning with x everyday and judo 3 nights a week. If this doesn't get me in amazing shape then I just guess i'm retarded and have no idea what it would take to get in shape you know!
wish me luck...twice!

Day 9.....Kung Fu Stu
So far so, good. Its been way easier getting back on a scheld now that I dont really have any huge plans for a while. Workouts have been going good too. Already feel that strength coming back.
I also enrolled into a martial arts class that I guess I start on Monday, I figured it would be way easier to have some accountability if I had people somewhere waiting on me to show up and workout. I figure doing a jujistu judo would be a great 2nd workout, as long as I get my lazy ass up to do my P90X workouts in the morning on those days. And, I've always thought it would be kickass to get a blackbelt in something so we will see. If you haven't noticed i'm very sporadic and OCD so we will see.

Day.......7......lol i'm so worthless!
Okay I see that in may was my last post...uh and I think that was my last workout....and since then I've been eating like crap again and not working out. Yeah here I am writing another "I'll do better this time!" blog.....seems like I have alot of those.
Anyway I'm starting again....again....... Just finished the frist week, and as far as I can tell I have nothing that will be getting in the way of a solid routine this time at least for a while. This summer has been full of travel for me. With work meetings across country, weddings, family events.....just completely ended me...which sucks because I made so much progress the frist time.
A friend of mine just downloaded some pictures of me from earlier this month on facebook...GOD DAMN IT i need to get my shit figured out. Its like really.......do I really look like that....FUCK I DO, I DO!!! DAMN IT!!!"
So I'm just finishing my first week and everything really feels like its falling into place again as far as getting into a rythm. As I promised I'll post picture but only when I get back to around day 30-35 again. Sucks I got off my grove the first time but now I'm more motivated...damn facebook.........

Day 36
Well this last weekend I went back to Hays Ks, to hang with all my peeps...that involved eating like i did when I lived there, and drinking ungodly amounts of beer and liquor. Well...its been about a year since I last partied like that...Imagine doing that 3X a week all year long....thats what got me to this point..lol
Anyway Got my workout for the day over with. I'm now on day 36 which is about 35 days more than I thought I would get. When I went back to Hays I got lots of looks from my friends and them telling me I looked good. THANK GOD someone is able to tell. This weekend made me gain 5 pounds, I'm sure I'll be back to my fit self by the end of the week....
