		<description><![CDATA[I did a 2 months challenge last year, with people from my industry, and dropped 11 lb in 60 days. But then slipped into my workaholic routine and gained 5 lb back. 

This year I&#039;ve been hitting gym anywhere from 5 to 7 times a week. Gained some muscle weight, so my overall weight stayed pretty much the same. I&#039;m still advancing at most lifting exercises , but feel like hit the ceiling on the bench press.

You brought up a good point about the mid-year resolution. Making gym part of may daily routine is a big thing for me these days, but I need to concentrate on my eating habits (13hr work days filled my diet with 1.5 meals a day + 4-6 beers before bed to relax - not so good)... I need to get used to eating small portions throughout the day and no beer in the house, unless I go out  (liquor and wine is ok :)). Another habit I need to learn - no eating after 7 or 8 pm. Those are my main health related resolutions for this year.

As for what can I achieve in the next 6 months? Break the bench press barrier and lose the beer gut - the rest is shaping out pretty well.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi Jo! I saw your okCupid profile, did some extra clicking, and ended up here. Your dating disasters are cracking me up (I read your &quot;worst date ever story&quot; as well.) It&#039;s not that I find joy in your misfortune, it&#039;s that I can totally empathize. If it makes you feel better, maybe you&#039;d like to have a laugh at my expense. Here&#039;s  the story of my worst date:

It&#039;s a bit lengthy, but worth the read. Enjoy!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Back to Back episodes of Law &amp; Order?  You&#039;re my kind of girl.  Too bad you probably already have enough gay men in your life, plus you live like 500 miles away but my partner and i will visit chicago one day (it&#039;s one of my favourite cities in the world).

I totally get you blog - love the way you write.  you hit so many key points.  if only people could shed they baggage and see the opportunity in front of them and live in the moment instead of dragging their shitty pasts into the equation, the world would be a much happier place.

Nice to &quot;meet&quot; you!
