I've been trying to get into shape lately. (I'd love to say back into shape, but alas it's a place I've never been) Things started out reasonably well, as I was away from home for over a week on a business trip. I find it easier to eat right and get exercise when I'm travelling. Since I've gotten back, though... Yowtch. It's damned tough to do any sort of workout when the temperature overnight doesn't drop below 80 outside, and 85-90 inside. (No AC in the house)
This is kind of pissing me off. I want to get into shape. It's well past time--I'm tired of being pudgy.
Things aren't horrible--while I topped out at 215, I'm around 185 now, which isn't bad. (I was down to 175 at one point, but that was during an extended semi-bachelor time when I was out here before the rest of the family moved out) Still... Bleah.
I probably ought to get some sun, too, though the 95+ degree weather's not that enticing for it. Pasty white's not that grand shade of skin color. A bit of tan, if I can manage it without crisping, would help me feel a bit better about the way I look, but, well, dunno if that's even possible, let alone whether I can pull it off.
