a discovery

Yesterday in the changing room at the gym I looked in the mirror and saw something odd.  It was a bit of a shadow, just under my ribcage.  I hesitate to call it an indentation, but that probably is right.  It took me a moment to figure out what it was...my abs!

I've been working out semi-regularly for years, and pretty much resigned myself to the fact my body wasn't going to change...just maybe be a slightly smaller version of the same rolly-polly self.  But recently I've noticed how hard my forearms have become (local friends, you can attest, I have probably made you feel them ;)  And now...abs!  Oh, I still have a poochy little belly...but something has definitely changed.  I'm a different shape, leaner, and quick.   I feel very strong.  Nearly mighty!

Hoorah!
