Couple things as of late:

1) I am FINALLY just barely starting to feel in shape. I didn't think back in December I was "that" bad. Still today, I don't think I was horrible then. Yeah, overweight with a lot of room for improvement, but I wasn't obese by any means.

At any rate, I have worked my butt of for SIX months now and just now, I am starting to see some definition in my body. I still have a layer of fat over my abs, but you can see more cuts in them than before. It's kinda exciting.

If I knew then how much blood and sweat it would take me to get only this far, I'm not sure how I could do it. At this point, I have SIX months of blood and sweat in the bank and it's not going to not, so there is no worry about me falling off the turnip truck.

2) There is this guy at the gym that I end up running on the treadmill next to quite frequently. He's very overweight. He's working his butt off. He puts in a pretty damn good jog and holds it for at least 45 minutes. I realized this morning that I really respect him, he inspires me - I know how hard it was for me and based on visual impressions, it must be even harder for him where he is now.
