The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsEnd of first month of three-days-a-week cardio and weightlifting.
Went into my closet and re-tried on all my favorite suits and sport coats. A little progress, but much more is needed.
Found one of my favorite pairs of dress slacks that I hadnt tried first time around. Embarrassed not to be able to button them. Still got a ways to go.
Buttoning those. Thats the goal. No booze until I can.
I forgot how good it feels to be nice and pleasantly tired from a workout.
I love you all. Friday Night Buzz Threads will return

You're making progress, that's what really counts.
