i dream of sushi

So I’ve been gone 2 months. And in that time, I’ve gained around 15lbs. Still lost weight overall, but it’s terribly frustrating to have undone so much progress. That being said, today is a new day. Or at least, tomorrow will be a new day. I’ve already pigged out today lol we are human, after all.

It’s going to be pretty tough getting back into the swing of things. I’ve got a vacation coming up in 3 weeks, and I’d like to be at a comfortable weight for that. Hard to be doing all that walking while carrying around all this excess weight. I’m looking at hopefully losing the same 15lbs I gained back. Let’s see. The plan of attack is to start lifting slowly. Follow the same blueprint that let me lose all that weight in the first place. It’s going to be tough, but I think 3 weeks of just locking in can really make a significant difference.

I’ve also been on a hell of a bad run with sports betting. I’m losing every thing I put on. It’s crazy. Health hasn’t been too great, either. Maybe I’m in one of those life slumps. Or maybe it’s the ghost month. Whatever it is, I hope things get better soon. I could use a break. Or two. Or five. Where are those winning lottery numbers when you need them.

That being said, I do have quite a few things to look forward to. I’ve got two international trips coming up (more on this later), plus I’m hitting up one of the best beaches in the country before the year is out. It’s a lot of money, but what’s done is done. I’ve already shelled out the dough, so I may as well enjoy myself. Yet another reason to get in shape F A S T. Things just taste better when you aren’t pigging out all the time. The walks around a new city are also much improved by not being 40 lbs overweight. It’s the small things, right?
