Well, I did it. Today I actually weighed myself. I try to avoid doing that because it causes me to focus too much on what I weigh and not what my fitness level is. However, the stupid machines are always asking for my weight. I've been guestimating 145 and it was actually 147, so I'm pretty impressed with my ability to assess myself.

I am however dissapointed. I have never weighed so much in my life. I'm frustrated because my roomy size 10 jeans are tight (they require the holding of breath to zip up) and I don't feel like I'm making progress.

I haven't gained weight like this before. The last time, it was mostly in my chest, with some tummy. Now it is all in my hips and my belly. I am gaining nothing in my chest (not that I'd want to). So I am very confused.

On the plus side, my butt is looking/feeling quite firm.

I meant to talk about what I'm doing at the gym, not just bitching about how much I weigh and what has become of my shape.

I've really only had the gym membership since the middle of last month. The days that Patch was sick, I didn't go. But, I was walking on my lunch hour, in fact, I have been since the new year. And I intend to add it to my regemine (on top of the time at the gym) next week.

The current gym routine is 15/20 minutes high intensity cardio (alternating daily between the recumben bike and the life cycle - one machine each day)followed by 15 minutes easy stretching and 10 minutes in the sauna.

What I'm really waiting for is the pool to be finished because then I'll be spending 30/45 minutes in the pool with 10 minutes in the hot tub and some final stretches before showering.

Today while stretching I got within 6-10 inches of my toes! (during that whole bend and touch your toes bit) I'm very excited about that. I normally get barely past my knees. Today I got half-way to my toes. I just focused on relaxing. I could feel each muscle group go and then I'd take a breath and let them go some more. It was spectacular.

Note: Call sushicaddy for refresher on pilates.

I have to say that I felt like the creator was a perv. The so, what are you wearing? With the asking for further details when I thought I'd already alswered the sex question. I mean really, you know I masturbate, is it really important how I do so? It kinda creeped me out. I seriously thought about bailing on the test, but I really wanted to see the results. Yeah, too much sex, not enough other stuff.

The Everything Test

There are many different types of tests on the internet today. Personality tests, purity tests, stereotype tests, political tests. But now, there is one test to rule them all.

Traditionally, online tests would ask certain questions about your musical tastes or clothing for a stereotype, your experiences for a purity test, or deep questions for a personality test.We're turning that upside down - all the questions affect all the results, and we've got some innovative results too! Enjoy :-)
