resistance to persistence

no aircraft carriers were damaged in the flexing of this photo

goal reached. mission accomplished. at least my first goal. it’s taken me almost 6 months, but my initial gym goal of putting on 20 lbs of muscle has been achieved. a lot of long painful hours in the gym with a great trainer and a lot of even longer and harder hours spent eating and eating. i honestly like the pain of the gym more than the pain of cooking and eating most meals. i haven’t missed one gym session or skipped a day of training yet. now i’m on to my next goal. another 13 lbs of muscle will take me to my next weight stage. i figure it’ll probably be about 4 months. it’ll be a good xmas gift to myself.

now i need to find a fun way to celebrate my success. most would go out for a nice meal, but that still reminds me of work in this case.
