Let's do this again, shall we?

I visited my hometown this weekend.  I went to one of my fave greasy spoons from my youth - The Beacon Drive-In.

And one of the ladies who's been behind the counter for years recognized me.  That is a *bad* sign.  Yes, I probably went through stretches in junior high or high school where I'd eat at least a Hash Sandwich, heavy on the red and a small onion ring with a Beacon (Sweet) iced tea every 2 or 3 days.  But to be recognized after not going for years, holy crap I ate there more than I thought!

I had the same thing today, I can't even estimate the calorie count for that, but it's gotta be less than a Hash-A-Plenty - same sandwich served in a white cardboard takeout box & covered by a layer of onion rings covered by a layer of french fries.

It really is no wonder I was about 30 pounds heavier when I graduated high school.  Good grief.

But last night the roommate and I went to the gym and I broke a sweat for the first time in a while doing a 30 minute treadmill run.  Then I woke up bright and early today and redid my Day 2 of Insanity - Plyometric Cardio Circuit.

And I still *friggin* haaaaate the Level 1 Drills.  Darn my lack of upper body strength!  But it's gonna get better.
