Before I left for SOS, I had been going to the gym 3 days a week for
about 3 months. Once at SOS, I varied from 3-5 days a week. However,
once I got to Kuwait, I stopped going altogether. This worked well for
awhile as I was eating right and not really eating anything bad for me.
Until Halloween that is.
After all was said and done and we were back in Japan I weighed 10
pounds more than I did before I left for Kuwait. Not terrible, but not
great either. I started going to the gym 5 days a week as all the
fitness journals say that 3 days will maintain your current fitness, but
5 days will improve it. I was doing very well and had lost about 6
pounds when we left for China. After getting sick there I took it easy
for my first 2 weeks back as I was hacking and coughing a lot. I’m
feeling better now, but after all the heavy lifting on Sunday, my back
has been out of whack. Anyway, I haven’t been to the gym except for a
quick 2.2 mile run last Friday since before China. It’s hard to get
back in to it isn’t it?
After next weeks base exercise I should have no excuses left and will
start going to the gym 5 days a week again. :-)
Here is something I made in Kuwait. It’s in the style of my old Comic,
The Life of Pat, but I changed it to a 4 panel format. Enjoy!
