After a week of not doing so well on my diet/excersize, I was happy to see that I am now down to 215.8 pounds. With 2 weeks left to go I am still on track to reach 210 pounds. I will have to do a little more than I did this week in order to get there, I feel. I have changed my eating habits. That is helping the most. Last night I cooked my normal 3 cheeseburgers for supper. When I got done with 1 I was full, so I put the rest in the refrigerator for later. In months past, I would have at least ate 1 more just to eat.
I thought hard about running last night. After the day I had at work, I decided I was going to play some poker even though I had planned for a break for the night. It helped me to get my mind off of work. The kids were playing the xbox right next to me so I didn't get in any games that I would have to concentrate too hard on. I played a bunch of 6 man super turbo's, heads up's, and finished the night with some cash games as my wife came in to watch T.V. with me after the kids were in bed.
I started out losing, then losing, then losing some more in the sng's. It was like the rest of my day. I could get all my chips in with the best hand and see the runner runner flush coming. Then it changed, just like that, along with my attitude. I went on a winning streak. I went from being quite a bit down to being up a little. I thought about quitting at that point, but felt that I had been playing good all night, so I continued. The streak continued and I had a good profit for the night.
In 2 weeks, I'll be leaving for Las Vegas. Tonight I have a poker Maximus game, I have 2 on Saturday and 6 of the Main Events on Sunday. We have quite a bit of football to watch on Thursday and Friday nights. The weekend after this we have a dinner we are going to. My schedule is booked. I've got to keep myself busy.
