Four

July 10th, 2008

I had another assessment yesterday at the gym, as it’s been about a month since we started working out together. I knew it was going to happen and I was pretty nervous. I don’t know why really. I guess I just wanted to know that I am on track.

We didn’t do the full body age test like I did at the beginning, just my weight and body fat calculation. I have dropped 4% of my body fat. I stood there looking at them blankly because I was really looking to get some sort of feedback on that. Is that great? Is it good? Is it not good enough? Is it bad? A little feedback here, please! They tell me that it’s really good but I wonder how good it really is. Would they actually tell me that it wasn’t very promising? That would hardly be a motivation thing to hear. But then again they didn’t tell me that I should spend more time doing cardio, or really think about writing down all my calories. So I don’t know.

Oh, I also lost four pounds. I expressed my concern over the fact that it was only four pounds and I got the standard response - muscle weighs more than fat. Yadda yadda yadda. Yes, I know. But I’ve been working my ass off, literally, I’d like to see more than four pounds gone. I need to be more patient. I know. Blah blah blah.

    The inches go before the pounds. Blah blah blah.

    Patience is overrated.

    You, however, are not.

    Happy Birthday!
