Huh. So the tipping point goes both ways... (not just towards the bad)

Last year, I gained a bit of weight due to being a lazy sloth and eating a lot.

I've been working out regularly and watching my intake. I've felt better but not that feeling of "wow, I really am changing myself for the better." Not until today.

I only got about 6 hours of sleep because I stayed up late to clean and tidy up the house. I ended up also spending about 2 hours at the gym. I'd been doing planks (holding my body aloft in a straight position) and a lot of squats. Last two sessions, I added a session of nautilus stairmaster. It's a goofy machine and looks like a tiny escalator... a tiny, infinite stairway. I walk 2 miles of stairs in 30 minutes at a moderate pace.

This morning I woke up with a slightly energetic feeling (endorphins?). My body really needs some rest but I have feel good and... wow... I can feel body changing. I'll just say it. My spare tire is going away. My face is more defined. My legs and core are solid.

I feel good.
