End of first month of three-days-a-week cardio and weightlifting. [View all]

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 hadn’t tried first time around. Embarrassed not to be able to button them. Still got a ways to go.

Buttoning those. That’s 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…

Unless you lifted weights when you bought your favorite sports coats the current weightlifting might make them tighter. MLAA Feb 21 #10

No. My sport coats are fitting just fine in the chest. Aristus Feb 22 #13
