Back to the Grind
June 25, 2008
Yesterday was the first day back at the gym post hand gashing. I was so excited to be back. I kept wanting to show people how dedicated I was to being back at the gym and working out. How my feeble muscles hadn’t atrophied after my heartbreaking week away.
But no one cared. Hell, no one noticed. I don’t exactly know what I was expecting as I clearly don’t talk to anyone at the gym and I hadn’t been there to tell them of my harrowing tale. So instead I went about my business, thrilled that nothing was hurting *too* bad and that I hadn’t lost much ground.
As I was finishing up on the bench press I look over at the guy watching the really distracting TV. He was a regular. And his middle finger was in a cast. Talk about feeling like a ponce. He’s got a gimped up finger and I have a little boo-boo and can’t make it in?
I did take Le Petite Belle’s advice and did my share of cardio, but wow did I feel like a gigantic sloth. My paltry push-ups were enough to remind me that I love the gym and missed it dearly. And I am so ready to get back on my game.
Last 5 lbs? Yeah – I’m talking to you. We’re over. This is it. You’re coming off.

awwww I’m feeling the bloggy love, girlfriend! Thanks for saying my name, that is so sweet! But listen, it doesn’t matter that you felt like a sloth the first time, when you do it again and again and again you will notice the difference. The first time is always rough- but you’re SO going to make it! 5 lbs? adios!
