lbm > weight loss 

le[a]n-ness management sometimes experiences a non-paradox: exercise builds LBM (lean body mass) which adds weight. but wait a minute... wasn't i trying to lose...?

no. 

well worth the weight/wait was always about body composition, lean-ness, vibrant-living and homeostasis. our focus has never been 'loss' -- even though that's what might show on a scale or with an abdominal tape measurement.

203.4 lbs; 39.5 abdomen. it was a snug 39.5, but i took it. it's a journey, but i wanted to feel the feelings associated with (really) being back 'under' a 40-inch abdomen. while (by no means) a finish-line, it re-presents progress. process. staying the Course.

the journey is a behavioral one, with physically measurable outcomes that relate to how wIe feel and live.

-the big inning. 

month #2, week #5. 
let's rock & roll.

day 31 went well, overall. 

i did indulge in a sexual chocolate draft beer from foothills brewing,

a little late-nite eating may have contributed to making the day a b+ and not an 'A'. 

this is how we learn.
