Went to a work holiday party today and after losing 130 pounds over the last two years, I was still called fat through a backhanded compliment by a colleague and then they wonder why I don’t go to work holiday parties. Keep drinking your wine, Looselips.

Two days in a row of workouts after 2 weeks away from the gym. That terrible feeling of sitting down or walking down stairs.

Excited to get back to the gym tonight. After being away for nearly two full weeks (one week because of being sick and the second for vacation), I’m ready for my routine again.

2+ hours in the gym. Drenched. Exhausted. But enjoyed what I saw in the mirror, so now it’s here for your viewing pleasure.
