Better day at the gym. I showed up late, so did not walk in with Cute Brunette. I may have done that on purpose on a subconscious level so I wouldn't have to face her. Turns out she wasn't there today anyway.

For the record, "Cute Brunette" is half my age. I have no romantic intentions toward her at all as I am happily married. She is just really nice and easy to talk to and quite attractive. (Her eyes are a totally amazing mix of green, gray, and ice blue that are unlike any I have seen before.) She is also totally out of my league even if I were closer to her age and not married.

So anyway. Last night I drilled a new hole in my belt, so my pants stayed up this time. Wife thinks I should get a new belt, but I do not want to for several reasons:
• First off, I like this belt. It is solid leather. Not the PU leather that is really just plastic coating over leather two stips that filled with what looks like paper on between layers.
• It is still a functional belt. Why get rid of something that works perfectly fine just because it is old?
• Finally, it has sort of become my measuring stick of my journey thus far [see belt timeline photo]. At my heaviest I was in the 4th hole from the end. It was falling into that notch the day after Thanksgiving last year that made me realize that I really needed to start thinking about losing weight. I began to lay some of the ground work at that time that has allowed me to succeed.

So my now tighter belt allowed me to exercise at full speed and finally break the 4.5 mile mark on the elliptical "65 minute cross training program". Been edging closer to the mark for a few weeks now, only to keep falling short. Today I got 4.59 miles!

Thanks for everyone who supported me after my ... experience ... yesterday. I am glad everyone was able to get a chuckle, even if it was at my expense. Here is hoping everyone of you lose enough that your pants, too, fall down in a very public and embarrassing manner. :-D

Have a great weekend.

Well I had a mortifying experience at the gym this morning.

I was using the elliptical and I began to notice my shorts were starting to slip down as I was going. This has happen to some extent with my older clothes, but these are my newest shorts (i.e. smallest size) that I bought this year. So on one hand I can say, "Cool, I can go down a size now." [If I just had the money to BUY new clothes. But I digress]

At the 15 minute mark I begin to pick up my pace to running speed. You can probably guess what comes next... They fell right off down to my ankles.

So here I am on an elliptical running about 5 mph when my pants fall off and cause me to stumble and almost fall off the device. All I can say that luckily I was wearing spandex bike shorts under them and it was before the place got too crowded. Unfortunately, the cute brunette I usually chat with saw it happen. I looked up just in time to see her head snap back around to look forward. I can tell she was trying to suppress a serious laugh.

So I slowed my pace and kept tugging on my waist band every few minutes. I will never talk to, or make eye contact with, "cute brunette" again ... or anybody else for that matter. I probably should change gyms ... or cities ... or planets.

But I AM losing both inches and weight! :-)
