I was off plan three days last week so I knew I would gain weight, and it's real weight, not just water weight that whooshes away. I put on about 3 pounds from my two cheat days, so that will take a strict diet and lot of exercise to get off.

Therefore, today is the first day of the rest of my diet. Now that I am all moved in and unpacked, I made it to the gym today for the first time in a week and a half, and hope to make it three days this week. The move messed with everything, exercise-wise and diet-wise.

I thought I would have to take the bus to BART and take BART to the gym, costing me an extra $1.50 every time I went. But Brad and I were out walking the neighborhood yesterday and I discovered that the 11 bus starts several blocks from my house. The 11 goes within a block of the gym, so I'll just walk up the street and take the 11. It takes a little longer (though not much), but the money I'll save is worth it.

Friday I took a little walk down the street and back, then Brad and I did an hour 40 minutes of walking later. Two hours total for me. Then we went to Jack London Square to see the fireworks and I have pictures and video. We had drinks at Tony Roma's. I counted my two glasses of wine there as the two glasses I allow myself on Fridays.

Saturday after church we walked up the street and then down MacArthur all the way to the Laurel District. About 1 hour total. Then we Pay-Per-Viewed 10,000 BC, which Brad expressed an interest in seeing. Not too bad of a movie. I missed some of it because I was in and out of the kitchen so I insisted on seeing the beginning of the movie again so I could figure out the plot better.

In the midst of seeing the beginning of the movie a second time Abby escaped and roamed the neighborhood looking for her old home. I finally asked Brad to leave as she wouldn't come to him; she's bonded to me. I went outside a couple more times calling to her and eventually heard her bell and corralled her back inside. Cats need to be kept indoors for two weeks after a move and it's only been a few days. Give Abby some more time to know where home is and she should do fine.

Today I went to the gym and did one hour of upper body weights followed by 30 minutes of running. It was so good to get back to the running. I missed that. I forgot to pack my salad today so I had to stop at the store and buy some. I was running a bit late so I took the bus over the first overpass, then walked the rest of the way to work - 20 minutes.

Tomorrow I am hoping to hit the gym again and do lower body. Since it is hard to run after working my legs for an hour, I figure I'll do the elliptical or something easier on my legs.
