"You're only hurting yourself."

That's what I keep telling myself whenever I miss a workout or have a cheat meal. But, Christ! You have to live too. I'm making excuses here, but sometimes life does get in the way.

Now that the above pathetic little whine is out there, I need to say that the Zone Diet has been tough the last couple weeks and I really have to crack down. Camping hurt. Too much junk food and beer around the fire.

I don't think my weight has suffered, but I surely didn't lose either. Still far too flabby. I'm feeling fitter, but the weight isn't falling off. I cannot afford to take a week or two off!

Anyhow, no sense in bellyaching about it. Back on the saddle. It's ok to fall down, as long as you get back up, right?

This week should be a full workout week (at least 4). No reason not to get all 4 in. But, the diet is key and I have to get the food locked down.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to take the PFT again, so I am a bit nervous about progress. I have to run through it on July 11, or I can pick a Thursday evening. I'm worried that my progress isn't where it should be.

Time to step up!
