Fit Karate-ka Classes (Guess Who's Teaching?)
Hey guys! I'm excited to say I'm going to be holding a 6-week fitness class in Aurora, IL. (Seriously, who could have predicted this?)

The Fit Karate-ka Class introduces the basic punches, kicks and blocks of Isshinryu karate. Designed for adults who are new to martial arts or fitness, the course introduces just a couple new concepts each week. The class itself, however, will be fast-paced and you will keep moving. When you complete the class, you can easily transition into a traditional martial arts course (and we'll have a coupon for you if you decide to do so) or kick boxing class.

The class will be held from 7:15 to 8 p.m. on Tuesdays, Feb. 7 through March 13, at Annie's Om Towne Fitness, 14 W. Downer, Suite A (upstairs and to the right) in Aurora, IL.

The fee for the six-week class is $27.37, if you register in advance through Eventbrite. The fee is $35.00, if you choose to pay with cash or check the first day of class.

To pre-register visit:
http://www.eventbrite.com/event/2589192344?ref=ebtn .
Use promotion code fatsecret for 4.37 off the pre-registration price. (I was trying to make it an even number and it didn't work.)

How Often Do you weigh yourself?
I only do it once a week now. I'm at my goal and more concerned with maintaining than losing, so I don't think I have to watch it as closely as I did before.

I also skip weighing in during shark week if I remember. It's so depressing because I gain this mysterious 5-10 pounds that disappears the following week. I think, in the pursuit of fairness, men should gain (an lose again) a mysterious 5 lbs every month.

Fat-Karate-Ka's Number One Rule for Weight Loss
Find a physical activity you can love and then give yourself over to the obsession. Based on my user name, you can probably guess my obsession. If you're going to work out every day (or almost every day), pick something you can like.

I wrote my most recent blog entry on this:

Free Women's Self Defense Class on Aug. 14 in Princeton, IL
As you can guess from my username, I'm a big fan of Karate as a form of exercise. A friend of mine is offering a free women's self defense class on Aug. 14. This is a great opportunity to try out karate for yourself and learn some practical self defense techniques.

Here's the details:

The Morse School Of Isshinryu will be hosting a 2 hour Women's Self-Defense Class starting at- 10am, on August 14, 2010, at the Bureau County Metro Center, 837 Park Ave West, Princeton, IL.

Women will learn various techniques to defend off attackers of all different sizes, and from different directions. This course will give participants, an insight of various Illinois laws in for self-defense, and common asked questions to domestic violence.

This course would be a great class for Women who will be leaving for college in August.

For more information contact the Bureau County Metro Center. 815-872-0840.

The program is open to all women ages 15 and older, but minors under age 18 will need a parent to sign a waiver the day of class.

Booo! Between the holidays and quitting smoking, I've gained 8 lbs. But I've bought a mechanical scale (as opposed to digital) so I can weight myself more ...
