Too bad is was in a direction I didn't want it going. For the last two days my weight has increased. It has not been all that much of an increase but it has been an increase none the less. After today's weigh in I have now lost a total of 2.5 lbs, ALL MONTH! I think it goes without saying that I am getting more and more angry with this. I know people say (and it is true) that muscle weighs more than fat and now that I have am in the muscle bit of my weigh loss rather than the fat burning since I am no longer 80 lbs overweight I should expect some muscle weight to replace the fat weight. Trust me I would love to believe this and I do to an extent but I don't know that I totally believe it since I am not seeing a difference in my body appearance or muscle tone. My wife says that I am crazy and she can see a change but she is my wife and I would not expect her to say anything else. One thing that does make me feel a bit better is that pants that I have been able to fit into again that were fitting correctly are now just a little bit bigger than they once were and my final belt that I was wearing on the last hole seems to have gotten bigger as well. I guess I will have to hold onto that for a little while and hope that it is correct. On a happier note the race for the cure is coming to Nashville in October and since I said I wanted to try and do a 5K as part of my goal for beginning to run I figure this will be a good one to do since it is such a great cause. Right now I am having a little trouble finding the time to run as much as I would like but I think I can get enough training done to be ready for it. Worse case is I register as a running and end up walking some of it but I would think that in 5 months I could get in good enough shape to run the entire thing. Wish me luck on that endeavor. I am looking to get some good running in this weekend when I go down to Alabama for a few days to be with my wife's family. If I can get a few miles of running in this weekend I thing that I would feel a bit better than I do right now. I guess we will see. By the way a little change of pace, here is my last 30 days workout chart.
