dirtylibrarianYesterday 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!
