the payoff of ungodly hours

[sergebroom]

I've been going to the gym more frequently for the last two weeks, and I'm now down from 186 pounds to a mere 182. It makes the ungodly hour of the workouts almost worthwhile.

Another ten and it's new wardrobe (well, new pants) time.

I once went from 215 to 180 in two months (fruit salad diet, daily) and had to find about five new pairs of trousers very quickly. (I'm now at 160 or so.)

Congratulations! Doctor's orders?

Kinda. I had my first attack of gout, and the doc said I needed to eat more fruits and veggies. As bad as that felt, I never wanted it to happen again, so I went overboard on the recommendation.

Since then I've discovered that indomethacin acts like a magic bullet for my particular gout attacks (maybe 10 over the past 25 years), so I've reverted to meat and potatoes. Kept the weight off, though.

Take care of yourself, that's the important thing.
