Wow. It's been a long time since I last posted. I have been so busy with school, a new business, new apartment, and a lot of food and beer. I'm 23 and I just moved out of my parents house for the first time. Man, what an adjustment! It's tough to sit in your room when your roommates want to go out or stay in and get drunk every night. To make those alcohol calories even worse, they make me do... eat stupid things.
With such little time, I was always finding excuses not to go workout. It's easy to say I'm too tired to go to the gym when I just went to school all day and worked all night. That was until I went back up a pant size again! I went up one, exercised and dieted, wen down one, ate and drank, then went back up one. I'm really taking it serious again though. I kind of took all of the work I put into my body for granted and over the last 6 or 7 months slowly started to get out of shape again.
I haven't gained all that much weight, but getting back into a regular workout routine has been tough. I can now say that I have a solid foundation to work on and some progress under my belt. That seems to be the key to exercising regularly. PROGRESS! Now that I have progress, I have a lot more to lose if I give up now. Working out 2 times then stopping isn't so bad. Working out 4 times per week for a month and losing 15 pounds, then stopping- that's hard to do.
I'm up to about 3 weeks of regular workouts now. I feel great and look great. I even went shopping for new clothes last night =) I'm hoping to get back into my skinny jeans! I can button them up again, but if I keep them buttoned for more than 5 minutes, I will probably have to have my legs amputated due to the lack of blood flowing to them. Ideally, within the next month, they should be fitting loosely on me again! I'm excited! and YES, guys can have skinny jeans too! Even straight guys.
