An All-Out ‘Pigfest’

Tuesday, March 27th, 2007

This past Sunday, I was invited by a friend to a cookout at his Sister’s place. His Brother-In-Law’s daughters were in town (both are, ironically, married to pro athletes) and everyone decided to have a gathering in their honor.

Considering that I’m currently on a restricted diet (I’ve lost about 15 lbs so far), I nearly gorged myself with food — well, not really. Now that I think about it, I only had two and a half pieces of fish, three slices of bread, one cupcake and a beverage …

Okay, you got me! I ate again later in the evening, and only because my Grandmother sent some dinner she prepared earlier in the day — and, yes, it was delicious! It was worth being stuffed, but oh man, the day after!!!

While I don’t think I’ve gained any weight, if I did, it would be miniscule — maybe under a pound. Regardless, I’m still on track (I think) to hit 170 lbs by early June (I’m 190 currently). Why the weight loss? Well, I got lazy over the last few years, and gained about 35 lbs after losing some 75 lbs as a senior in high school. I kinda miss being ‘lean and mean’, not that I can complain now, but it’s just silly to carry any extra weight.
