Here I go again.... (White Snake pops to mind). After almost two weeks off from working out I went back into the gym again today. I was a bit apprehensive but knew that I needed it bad, and knew that by the time I was done I would be happier. See almost two weeks ago we had Black Spring Break here, and over 30,000 african-american college students swarmed the gulf coast, primarily my city's beach, so we had to beef up manpower and my co-worker and I agreed to not deal with the gym and let all of that blow over first.

Then by Wednesday (last Wednesday) I hurt my left foot and it put me out on sick leave all until Tuesday (day before yesterday) so I hadn't had a chance to go to the gym, and it showed on the scale, oh did it ever. I lost notta for the week. Well I did go down to 380 but it went right back up, so I've been tettering between 381 and 383 since weigh-in this past week. Nothing like from the week and a half I was working out.

So I made the commitment to be there this morning after work. Got in at 7:30 am and left just before 9:00 am. So I got a pretty good workout today. Worked my butt off. Bench press, inclined bench press, curls, pectoral, double pulley lat pull down, triceps pull down, and some other machines I can't think of, and then I got on the lifecycle and burned some calories. Getting my HR up to 150 is pretty damn good for an almost 400 lb dude.

Oh yeah I felt it today. I just got out of the shower and I'm fixing to go crash after I finish off this 20oz bottle of water and keep my meals light today. Hopefully I'll see more than 1lb loss come Monday.

Don't know when he's gonna be ready to go back to the gym but I'll try to work on going back Saturday morning.

My problem is once I get home, I sleep, and I don't feel like getting out the house until I absolutely have to, which means to go to work. So if I don't do it in the morning right after work I wouldn't ever go. I just know if I went home I'd crash and not get up till the middle of the afternoon and would not want to leave.

I thought it was going to suck doing it right after work too but it isn't so bad because I'm still moving around.

gotta love white snake heh.

Freaking awesome! Way to go! Feels great to excercise doesn't it? I've been jogging lately... granted little spurts but it's an amazing feeling being able to do things that I haven't done in ages
