All the obsticals to just go work out…

I decided I must start working out again. Especially with the new year. Since we were slow at work, I went to the gym for lunch. I forgot my deodorant, so I had to stop by a nearby Walgreens to get some. Once I got to the gym and started to suit up. I forgot my shorts, and they no longer sold clothing at the gym, so I had to pack my stuff again… I was gonna just forget my workout, but I was determined. I went next door to Gap. Nothing. I finally got some shorts at Speedos. A little pricey, but hey… what do you do. By this time it started to pour rain. Man! But I didn’t care. I went back to the gym and suited up for my first workout in over 3 months.

I gained weight. When I was regularly working out about 2 years ago, I was down to 147 lbs. Normally I’m at 150 or so… Now I weight in at 158. Which I truly can feel. (My love handles ar just a bit bigger than I want).

Workout was tiring, but energizing… I only could run for a little while… only about 20 minutes and I couldn’t handle more… I’ll slowly build up to maybe 35 minute or so… Hopefully I’ll lose some weight…
