So what's with this square labeled "one"?

Went to the gym tonight for the first time in over three weeks. It served as kind of a rude awakening of how far I've fallen from this time last year. Over the course of the past year, I've gained 25 pounds, if the scales at the gym are to be believed. That's pretty fucking sad. Going by tonight's recorded weight of 207, if this isn't the fattest I've ever been, it's damn close. I was around 200 at the very beginning of 2005 when I started going to the gym and to kickboxing, was down to 182 in the August-October timeframe, and have been creeping back up ever since then. I think I figured "I'm working out regularly, guess I don't really need to watch what I eat anymore", and the working out "regularly" became less and less frequent. If I look on the bright side, having lost a good deal of weight in the recent past I can certainly do it again, but it just sucks to have backslid this far.

Paradoxically, I recorded the fastest 1 mile time (8:50) that I've put down since running one in 8:15 last November. The difference here is that I felt like I was going to die at the end of it... But it's more a matter of willpower than anything else. There's some in here somewhere, now where did I put it...
