Hello, and welcome to my new journal. It's been a while since I've posted and eagerly welcome new and old friends.
I fell out of lifting and exercising in general about 3 years ago and eventually came to the realization that my posting here was almost ironic, and stopped. The biggest barriers to my exercising was an increasing number of medical issues; the most debilitating were the chronic migraines (which last about 4-8 hours a day 5-6 days a week) and ulcers and throat inflammation. Long story short, I figured out I am allergic to chocolate. Anyhow, for the first time in half a decade.... I don't have a headache. I still have a lot of anxiety just anticipating the headaches, but I feel good.
I had my first workout in a long time today. Val (my better half) came home this morning and told me she signed me up and handed me my key card.... So here I am. I guess she only wanted to hear me say I was thinking about joining so many time. I just did what I thought was a light sandbagging workout and now feel like I was beaten. I am just starting with a very basic upper lower split until I figure out what I want to do.
Right now, my only goals are to just have more energy and not feel like sh*t. I'll start posting my numbers shortly and soon as I figure out the formatting again.
