...because I honestly believe that telling a lot of people about this kind of thing tends to make it fail.
Despite lingering bronchitis symptoms I have made my return to the gym, possibly my first serious attempt at regular exercise in a truly shameful stretch of time.
There, in the locker room, was the digital scale.
The moment of truth.
276
Not sure what I expected (that's a lie, I was betting on 285, so this was sort of a pleasant surprise in a gruesome sort of way), but I believe I can work with it.
I spent some time testing things out on the weight machines and with free weights, trying to figure out how far I had fallen and from where I could begin. Some happy surprises, some deep disappointments, all in all about what I expected/feared.
Wish me luck. Been there twice with good efforts since Monday and going back tonight.
