Home for Thanksgiving

So right now I'm in the Bay Area in California where I grew up. Seeing family and friends is nice cause it makes me forget about cards. I purposely didn't bring my RCA chip so there is absolutely no way of meeting that need that wants me to "omg just play one set." Taking 3 days off is really nice and very relaxing. I've been heavy headed for a while about playing. You know, that feeling where it feels like the game is controlling your thoughts. You can't go 5 minutes without thinking, "Well, I'd shove but ICM makes me fold" or some crap like that. I should be heading back tonight or maybe tomorrow morning. Hopefully, I'll get some good grind time in. I need to get back into the swing of things and get back to a more steady playing routine like I used to have.
Also, I think a big thing that gets overlooked within the lifestyle of a grinder is health. I've let myself pack on some pounds. Getting lazy, sleeping in, and overall feeling very lethargic most of the time while I play. Back in May, I kicked my own ass to lose weight and I lost 10lbs. Maybe it's a coincidence I also made 1k/lb. I lost? I dnno. I felt more engaged while I played, and it was nice. I epically failed to lose weight this November. I started off ok, but then I was like "oh, snap, Taco Bell sounds good," or "Meh, Thanksgiving is around the corner." I'm not fat or anything, probably 180-185, but I definitely wouldn't mind losing like 25lbs total. So without further ado, this leads me to my prop bet for December. Although it's not finalized, the basic premise is that I could lose up to $300 if I don't lose 15lbs. I'm gonna give my GF 15 20 dollar bills. For each pound I lose, I get a bill back. For every pound under 15 I don't lose, she gets to keep $20. So it's either I lose weight, or she gets a Nintendo Wii. Game on.
