Happy New Week, Best Buddies:

I feel better today and just came back from the gym. Typically, I work out Tuesdays with my favorite trainer - but tomorrow I am staying with my husband while he has an outpatient surgery. I am slightly concerned because I believe he will go under full anesthesia for the procedure. He is very healthy, so all should be well.

The remnants of the "French Bread Debacle" are still around. I am amazed how much wheat bloats the system.

Good luck tomorrow. Modern medicine has gotten so good at outpatient surgeries. I'm sure it will be a relief when it's over.

Congrats on graduating to the 45lbsers! I remember late last year helping a friend with some 45s or 50s (he has/had a bad shoulder) to get into position for bench pressing and I couldn't believe how heavy they were. The sort of weight, that I thought, was just around for decoration and never really lifted. Now I'm at 65s on the bench and I keep eye balling the 75s. It's amazing how much we can grow in such little time.
