Not-So, Paleo, Weekend

I made it 30 days on the Paleo trial.... and I liked it. So, I'm going to keep going with it. However, this weekend was terrible. I had a major set back that was back to the old days.

Friday I went to happy hour with a few of the locals. Had a few glasses of wine and all of a sudden, the devil popped up and told me I had to have Taco Bell. So, I gave in. Then he reappeared and said we needed a Dunkin Donuts stop. So, I gave in. Lastly though, I had the urge for a DiGiorno pizza. So, I bought one.

It was a bad bad night. I woke up Saturday and went to Kettlebell class at the gym where we were introduced to hand stand pushups. Crazy! Of course, mine needed to be modified because it was my first time doing them, but regardless, it was neat. On top of that, a few days before, I made the move from a 12" box jump to 14". Got through class, decided to try a 20" and made it! Talk about a self esteem boost!

Back to the weekend. Saturday night, we went to my friend Andrea's house in PA for a BBQ. We hung out for close to 6 hours or so and did a nice amount of drinking. Needless to say, I feel swollen. I don't know if weight gain has occured, because I don't want to know but tomorrow will tell all. The Bod Pod is coming to the gym and I've signed up for it. I'm going to find out my fat density and a whole bunch of other numbers that after this weekend, could throw me for a loop. We shall see!

Hi and Happy new Year! I don't know if you still check your blog but if you get this comment and would like to email me, I'd like some advice. My email is racn4acure@comcast.net. This year marks 10 years for me surviving cancer, and one of the things I am thinking about to make it special is perhaps (and I emphasize PERHAPS) doing a relay race with some runner pals. Maybe even all cancer survivors. So I remember you having done one of these and would love thoughts and advice. Thanks and I hope that 2012 will be a great year for you. Art
