Kangatopia

I weighed myself at the gym yesterday and there is still no change. I’m definitely getting stronger, but I’m discouraged by the lack of measurable results. I’m thinking that maybe I should take my measurements with a cloth tape measure and see if there is any improvement in those numbers. I’m also thinking of asking the personal training staff if they would measure my body fat percentage periodically without charge.

This morning I asked the kids if they wanted to go to the gym again tonight after Monkey’s dance class. The response was a groan, and then silence. I was half expecting that they would get bored with the gym after a while, and I was about to try to say something encouraging to them about how fun the childcare center is when I heard Monkey say, “Bear, we have to go so that Mommy can get all of her fat away.”
