Hurts So Good
After an unhealthy absence I finally returned to the gym this afternoon.
The good news is that I remembered how everything works and my first workout in a long time felt great. Everything hurt afterwards in that rewarding way that only exercise can do. The bad news is that I weighed myself at the club. Wow. I am 15 pounds heavier than I was when I first returned from Japan last year! I may have to totally re-evaluate my diet if I want to lose those extra pounds, although I'm not dropping rice from the menu. I know from my experience in Japan that eating rice everyday is not incompatible with losing weight.
Naturally, some of Dad's friends came by and the four of us went out for a big, rich French dinner. Plus dessert. So much for that "re-evaluation" I dreamt of minutes ago! I'll find a middle ground somehow but for now, it seems I cannot resist the omnipresent temptation to indulge myself.
