I've been eating terrible, forgotten what vegetables are, drinking often, indulging in cookies n'stuff, and seem to have lost 8 lbs. Yay gym payoff?

Gym is fun. I go. I am trying to do more volume work after getting some gains. My chest/left tricep is still dead / nerve not firing. My squat is slowly increasing. Slow is probably good for me, and I still get stranger comments when they see me lifting that much at my size. I'm tempted to relish the 3 plate old nemesis, but I used to enjoy my old bench 2 plate nemesis - before my nerve died.

An opening is posted for OGC 13/14. That fear aleved. New fear, I have to apply.

This has been a great weekend. I pretty much did not do my chores other than the gym and cat care, but played a million hours of video games. It's a symptom of my disease(s), but I feel great that I got my geeking on.

Loving my house, work continues to be slow.

Work exploded so I've been mostly offline for a week. Now I'm...not really online. Writing no much or long. I feel less driven to share my observations - a side effect of confidence and social connection?

I have been a total slug but also have noticeably less pudge above the hipbones. No idea.

Failed miserably at fitness last week. Only got in one purposeful walk. Work was shear hell. No time to exercise. Will try harder this week.

Work and related stress is a fitness killer. I'm lucky to be so addicted to my workouts that I stick to them because they reduce work pain.

All those lifts are reminders I could crush that pencil necked / walking walruses with my hands in another venue...
