So I got back from 8 days straight of vacation in the Bahamas/Florida. All I did was drink copious amounts of alcohol and eat lots of fattening food and no working out. Now I'm a manatee. I could literally see the weight piling on as I stuffed myself every day to the point of sickness (Look for my upcoming book The Complete Idiot's Guide to Gluttony). The definition in my abs disappearing and my face getting rounder with another chin. So I decided to weigh/measure myself this morning:
200.4lbs
19.6% body fat (measured via my handheld bf measuring thingee so there's some measuring error there)
waist 37 inches.....
37 inches?!!! 200lbs!!! I haven't been that big in a long time! I feel like poo. I would go train today but think I'd prolly just die on the mat. Granted, I also haven't taken a true vacation in almost two years so I truly indulged. Oh well, now I start the arduous and painful road back.

Saturday Workout
Yesterday (Saturday) did caveman training with Graham. My heart wasn't in it but I still slogged through. It was a fun little circuit that left my core and legs pretty sore. The gym loves my power sled and water ball and I'm hoping I can get a discount on training for letting them use it. I haven't paid yet but let's face it, I'm cheap and don't wanna spend alot of cash (even though I would).
I then took several punches in the face (Not too hard) while Graham demonstrated some new techniques. I also learned a front carotid choke that I'm pretty impressed with. Tomorrow (Monday) I'll do Art of Strength: Providence. I really enjoy that workout.

First Post and a Realization
After reading Ross' blog today (http://rosstraining.com/blog/2009/10/08/fostering-an-active-lifestyle/) I realized I am exactly what he was talking about. I plop Evan down in front of the television and go about my business. That's shitty. I spend so much time on my own fitness yet neglect my own son's (Yeah, he's gonna end up on a shrink's couch someday but at least he won't need a double wide couch). So in response, I enrolled him in Little Gym (http://www.thelittlegym.com/Pages/default.aspx) and am going to make sure we spend more time doing active/physical stuff. I just need to come up with ideas. Any suggestions?
On a side note, and in an effort to completely contradict what I just wrote cause I'm a hippocrite and maybe a bit retarded, I'm taking my monster to see Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs today. I'll get him some popcorn....cover it in butter..... hell, maybe even deep fry it......
