A Long Time!

Yes, it has been, I know.

I got tired of posting the same things for so long, but the truth is, that working the schedule that I do (and now it seems I'll be picking-up a third job in addition to the two I already have and my business, so that's, four?) has severely impacted my training program, and that my age has played a factor as well-- I have a few injuries that just don't want to heal in a timely manner! So most of my martial arts pursuits have been put on-hold, although I am still training as a fencer, and looking at opportunities to start getting involved in the competitive circuit (my coach says it's time).

The good news is that I was able to lose 50 pounds with the Carb-Night Solution! That is official, as I weighed myself awhile back and came-in at 215, from an all-time high of 265 (uh...). The not-so-good news? I just came off of a three week vacation, and man, was I off-program. WAY off-program. I ate like a champ, and carbs featured prominently (as did ice cream almost every night for a couple of weeks). So I probably put nine or ten pounds back on, and I re-started the Carb-Night program today.

So I'll keep y'all informed on my progress re: martial arts, keeping the weight in-check, and general fitness, but right now, things are moving pretty slowly.

One thing I have done is acquire a bunch more blades, and I have a few more pretty hip items coming in soon. So for those "Blade Enthusiast or Knife-Nut?" fans, I should be able to post a few additions pretty soon. Stay tuned!
