Way to go assuming my intelligence and intrinsic motivation there, cupcake.<\/p>\n
I’m tired of the weight loss talk in the locker room. If you’re working out an extra hour<\/strong> because you put whipped cream on a single slice of pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving, you don’t have the problem you think<\/em> you have.<\/p>\n I’m tired of health being seen as a virtue. Yes, healthy habits can be helpful. Overall health is often a crap shoot and luck plays a significantly bigger factor than you think. Ask anyone who had healthy habits and is slammed with a chronic condition.<\/p>\n Thing is?<\/p>\n I miss swimming. I’m eyeing a local college gym (I can join because my husband and I work for an affiliate organization) that is amazingly cheap, but does have crap swimming hours. Thing is, my own schedule would allow for me to swim there. I may still go back and just allow myself the indulgence of snarling at anyone who dares speak to me. I don’t really want to behave that way, but while I’m fine with flinching before diving into cool water, I’m less sanguine about flinching at the talk constantly surrounding me in the locker room.<\/p>\n But, ya know, I miss this:<\/p>\n I’m back to lifting weights and while I’m not as weak as I feared, I’m not as strong as I hoped. I am very sore this morning, but not as sore as I’ve been when getting cocky about how strong I was after a hiatus in lifting. My dumbbell set is enough to carry me … <\/p>\n
