Well, I said I just needed two good softball games to end the week on a high note, but I didn't exactly get them. So many balls got past me I felt more like a matador than a first baseman. Realistically, I would have been just as effective using a red cape instead of a glove. Since I've been hitting pretty well, Dan suggested bringing a bat out there with me to stop them. That might actually work...
But I did lose a little more weight, which is the whole point of the blog, so I guess I shouldn't complain. I'm thinking that if I limit the damage this weekend and then work out pretty hard early next week, I could conceivably hit the 260's by next weigh in. That will be the first milestone that I'll actually be proud of, since it does seem like that's a pretty big distance from where I started. I just have to get past poker tonight and football tomorrow. Those are really my biggest two danger zones each week.

Big Jim - Have you considered a move to the outfield? There is a whole lot more running out there than first base if you play the position correctly. More running = more calories burned = greater weight loss.
ReplyDeleteJust a thought.
I don't think the team wants that to happen. With my Prince Fielder build, I think 1B is where I belong. I guess I could sprint out there and back each inning for more exercise...
