Tired, Tired, Tired

My gym began staying open 24 hours last year, but I had never been there after 10 PM. Last night, after being stood up (kinda, not really, but sort of), and finishing an article I had to write for another site, I decided to go ahead and hit the gym. Surprising to see people there at that hour! Most of them were young people, but some were older, too. Maybe they were retired and didn't need to worry about getting up in the morning.

I'm tired this morning, though. It really hit me and I don't even think I worked that hard. A midnight workout probably won't be my thing. Working out earlier seems to invigorate, but this time it felt like work.

And I'm also battling that weight gain that seems to accompany a workout program early on. Even though I know the weight is muscle mass, there's no denying that it is alarming to step on the scale and discover an extra pound or two creeping up on you.

But I know what I want and I know how to get it and I won't give up. Woohoo!
