I gained almost 15 pounds while I was in the Netherlands and Chloe wanted me to lose some weight before the baby comes, so she signed me up with the Team Weight Loss program at Lifetime (the gym that we go to).
The program is very simple, there are 7 of us. A personal trainer guided us on the treadmills 3 times a week. Each time we worked on the upper body using weigths or rubber bands, while walking on the tread mills. We need to also start eating healthy, i.e. eating five meals per day. Eating a lot of fruit and veggies, not to mention drinking 64 fl-oz of water everyday.
Talk about water, every day I drink 2 big glasses of water when I wake up at 6:00 am. After that flush, my system works and within 15 minutes, I need to go number 2. Yeah a-lot-of number 2.

Progress in a few weeks
To be very honest, I wanted to trade for a living is because I want to get financially independent. It occurs to me that, the security of working in cooperate America was just a delusion last time when the bubble busted. Now the economy is going down hill, the industry is going down hill, evidences pointing for another recession in enormous. So I need to get ready.
Anyway, thanks to the Nester, I found interesting in blogging again.
Today my account went up, imagine the day I got stopped out in 4 of my 6 trades and my account still goes up. Today marks the day that I experienced to have small losers and big winners...and they are DE and CLF. The losers are Puts on JCP, MER, C, AZO.
nothing really special but just a day ups and downs.

My first comment! Crooked Pinkies
I have received my first unsolicited comment today, it was from a loving mother who's son also has crooked pinkies.
Dear Loving Mother of a fortunate child,
Subconsciously I was looking for reasons to separate myself from my family. I have successfully separate from them physically, we are now half way across the globe apart. And I was looking for other reasons to retain no relationship at all with them, my crooked pinkies are proofs that I was hunting for to satisfy my innermost ungrateful desire. It would not be a good idea to disclose in public the reasons that steered me toward this decision. Since everybody has a story, I am sure you can appreciate mine.
Signed: ungrateful son of another mother.
