It’s Been a While

I’ve not been to the gym in two weeks. Two weekends ago I went to a Wedding on Friday, then had a stomach bug on Saturday and Sunday. That stomach bug morphed into a cold that kept me out of commission Monday thru Thursday. Then we went to NYC Friday thru Monday. Then, well, I just got lazy. At that point it had already been a week so why not just delay the inevitable return to the gym even longer.

Randy wants to go tonight. Whoopie.

Of all times, this is probably the best time to go (and to go more frequently). For one thing, Randy has commented (twice, actually) that it looks like my belly has gotten a bit smaller over the past month or so. I’m sure the stomach bug helped, but I’ve also been trying to eat less during the day.

Also, we’re fast approaching the holiday season so my caloric intake is likely to increase in the next few weeks (Costco is already selling…and we’re already eating…their yummy holiday cookies). Better to combat those calories with some physical exertion than with couch time.

But can’t we just put it off one more day?
