Day 669 of 365 More.
In some ways I miss last year. This time last year I was unemployed and looking for work. Looking for work only takes so much time out of your week, so the rest of the time I spent working on photography and working out like I was in prison.
I was in great shape.
I’m not anymore. I’m fat and flabby and generally just not comfortable in my body. I spend most of my day at work and most of my evenings working on the comic strip or the podcast. It doesn’t leave a lot of time for anything else.
Don’t get me wrong, I love doing the podcast and Hellcats is a childhood dream come true. I mean, I’d be happier with both of them if I had more of an audience, but I’m hopeful that will happen.
I just don’t much like looking in the mirror or looking at pictures of me anymore.
So I took a break tonight and did some weight lifting. I don’t really feel like I look any better, but it’s a start. I need to work on the strip some more tonight, but if I can do that and still convince myself to get up early tomorrow, maybe I’ll put in 30 min. on the elliptical.
It’s time to bring sexy back one more time.
Dude.. you’re gonna blow an O-ring… take a breath!!
I’m with you though… I’ve been working out for the past 2 weeks. Sad things is I never build mass… just get more definitiion. Suck.
It’s a start. 🙂
Ditto on your situ…last year i had a body like a rock…this year jello…muscle memory is great tho!
I hear you my friend, I am feeling fat and flabby just now aswell, I am trying to get back into training but I am finding it hard. I like this though, great sp.
ha ha, Mav and Nicole are going all macho on us!!!
eye of the tiger! gooo mav
You look fine to me. But I know that that won’t help.
Good luck.

We should all be doing this! Yeah, well, excuse me while I finish my Oreo cookie breakfast (just kidding!).
Get swoll!
Hi, I’m an admin for a group called Stunning & Unique Portraits!, and we’d love to have this added to the group!
@Stephen Poff: I’d be happy with that. Not really looking to build mass.
@adayinthelife: yep. Just got to keep it up. I did manage to get some cardio in this morning before work.
@wisebudda: yeah. Totally. I’m working on it though.
@jimnomad: thanks. I just have so much I do in my life now, its hard to find time for everything.
@disco~stu: yeah, I need to put together a workout mix on my iphone. I’ve just been using shuffle, and sometimes it hits a ballad and really kills my flow.
@Cybergabi: thanks. But no… I feel crappy, so I’m not gonna believe it. But thanks.
@lrayholly: heh… yeah, I have a real weakness for cookies lately. I can get away with snacking a bit more when I’m working out. But 90% of my day is sitting in front of a computer for some reason or another now, so I don’t get the kinda exercise I want.
@shockingbird: thanks. I think. 🙂
@EnjoyLife Productionz: Thanks, but I’m not really interested in private groups.
Dammit! Now you’re making me wanna work out too. But it’s hard when I work from 1-9am. I’m practically a vampire.
@excalipoor: yeah, it’s even hard working regular hours. So I feel for you.
Yeah, I put on a nice layer of fat over the winter. I blame flickr.
a soulful and artistic triumph, bravo
