Tomorrow, Things Are Back To Normal

My wife is an educator.  Tomorrow, she’ll head back to the classroom and our daily schedule will return to normal.  While I’m bummed that she has to go back to work, it’ll be good to have a bit more structure than I had during the summer.

I have decided to join a new gym!  I’m going to go early tomorrow morning and fill out the paperwork.  The gym is administered by a local hospital, so I’ll have to have some blood work done before I can begin to workout.  (This is actually a good thing.  Hopefully, I’ll come back with a clean bill of health!)

I’m trying to decide if I want to hire one of the personal trainers of I just want to go it on my own.  We’ll see.


Considering A New Gym Membership

I’m thinking about joining a new gym.  My old membership expired a few months ago, and I haven’t felt like renewing it.  But, now that I’m in the mood to workout, I think I’m going to join a new place.  They have an indoor walking track and an indoor pool, for year-round swimming.  I think I’d enjoy swimming a few laps, instead of pounding away on the treadmill.

I called and asked them about the cost of a membership.  Monthly rates start at around $35, with unlimited use of the facilities.

Speaking of exercise, I think I’ll go outside later tonight and go for a walk.


First Weigh In With The New Scale

The new scale arrived late yesterday, so I waited until this morning to establish my new, official, starting weight.

I now weigh 251.4 pounds.

This is actually three or four pounds less than I thought I would weigh.  Our old scale was off by about two pounds.

I don’t really have a lot to write about today.  I just needed to establish my new starting weight - and now I’ve got to work my butt off to drop the pounds and change that number.
