Unfortunately, between being ill with meningitis and medicating myself after hurting my back and neck I counted that I've been down and out for 16 of the past 28 days. In addition to making me down right depressed, being ill and incapacitated has also seriously messed with my work out routine which had been paying some serious dividends. To compound matters, I've been quite regularly eating chocolate in quantities that would make a French pastry chef blanch. What can I say? I seek comfort from chocolate.Anyway the result has been that I feel like all my progress in the gym has come undone. This evening when I looked into the mirror I felt like I was starting to resemble the Family Guy.
I'm still not able to work out but I'm hoping to return to my trainer, Stu, next week. If only for my mental health I need to get back into my gym routine. When I'm working out I'm more disciplined about what I eat and the further I get from the gym the more lax my eating habits get.

always remain positive. Not being able to do all the stuff you used to because you are not well can really play with emotions!
Wishing you a speedy recovery!!!!
Yes, good luck in getting well and back to the gym. At least you have an excuse! Mine is just simple laziness.
Hey -- miss seeing you at the gym. Looking like the Family Guy? I think not...
I need to start my newest diet and excerise regimen again as well!
Oh you mentioned my favorite drug, cyclobenzaprine. Yep, it's a benzo.
I think you should start yoga! It's at your own pace, and it's great for stretching your muscles! But see a physiotherapist before - I don't want to give advice when I am no expert!
