Well, I definitely had more fun at GW than I did at the last one I went to (which was when I swore I’d never go back unless a friend was on the throne). Actually, I quite enjoyed myself. I managed to have a couple of days “off duty” (which meant that I only hung out with TRM if I wanted to), did some shopping and ran into a number of old friends from the East. The week definitely brought home to me the fact that I’ve let things physically get way out of hand. I really need to get myself back into decent shape. It wasn’t only that I couldn’t even think about fighting; hell, I couldn’t keep up with a fast walking pace!
Have started back to the gym as of this morning and am contemplating hiring a personal trainer again. If only it wasn’t such a damn long, slow process!! It’s hard to keep up the motivation/enthusiasm. Sigh. Oh well, it’s not like everyone else I know doesn’t have the same issue! Hmmm, maybe if I goal-set publicly, I’ll have that added motivation of avoiding public humiliation? Nah, won’t work – I wouldn’t find it humiliating (frustrating yes, humiliating no). Well, at least I can try to be 15 pounds or so lighter before Lilies, which will make it easier to get around a relatively large site. Then, we’ll look at the next goal. Back to counting points!

Good luck with your personal trainer! It really helps to have someone looking over your shoulder.
) I took the week off before GW because I had other projects to work on, and Gym Guy called me at work on the Thursday to see if I was okay.
) It’s nice when people notice your absence; it keeps you on track…
