Walk of Shame (sans actual walking)

I have self-destructed.

Back in February, I was exercising regularly and down to 199 pounds. Not too shabby!

March came along. Me and my wife had a big falling out with our Taekwondo school. Taekwondo was my primary source of regular exercise, and between the aggravation of dealing with our TKD school issues, a large budget cut at work, and other stresses knocked me out of my exercise routine.

From there, it was all a downward spiral. The less I exercised, the less I felt like exercising. I went from a time when I couldn't imagine not exercising, to not feeling like doing it at all. It's gotten to the point where I've become completely discombobulated.

And my weight? Well, let's just say that I've really set myself up for some big time success! I now weigh in the neighborhood of 235-240 pounds: +40ish pounds in the last few months.

But the good news? I feel like getting back into healthier living. I'm a man in search of a routine, which is a much better place than I've been in over the past few months.

So, to summarize, I've not done myself any favors, but I'm ready to.

Welcome back! It's annoying how quickly we slip back into bad habits isn't it?
