So I have kept up the kickboxing and haven't lost a pound. It is intense and I am progressing skill-wise and I have been enjoying myself (except for the aches and pains). I have been going 3 times a week for 2-3 weeks now and I will continue for the next couple of months. I did pull a double (Kickbox and regular gym) one day. I felt great doing that. This points to the next problem which is cost. Two expensive gym memberships isnt sustainable. My idea is to cancel and join a low cost (read no-frills gym) for when I will be doing a weight lifting workout.
Issue #2 is work. We had layoffs and I was spared, but got the message loud and clear. This initiated plan 63 which i will go into greater detail as things progress. Looking out for those coworkers that were affected, I called and old contact at Black and Decker and made an inquiry on their behalf. Turns out they are highering and may have already contact one of the laid-off folks.
Went to the Bengals @ Ravens game which was a good time.
More to come
