Workout Buddy

by Charles January 30, 2008

One of my co-workers has volunteered to be a workout buddy.  This gives us both accountability since he wants to get back into a regimen just like I want to start one.  However, I have a feeling that I’ll be completely wasted by the end of next week. We’ll be starting Monday at lunch with [...]

Weigh-In: Week 85

by Charles January 29, 2008

One more step forward in spite of the previous week I’ve had. Yes, I’m over my spite at losing the job opportunity. Yes, I’ll try to work on my personal development. Yes, I’ll try not to have pizza two days in a row over a weekend (but it was SO good). In all, I had [...]
