That’s it, no more excuses… We’re back at the gym after 4 months hiatus. I’m a gym bunny again… yeah, right.
Here I am, this morning, hiding my shame in the shade of the YMCA sign:

I have to lose at least 10 pounds before Christmas. That’s 2 months. 5 pounds / month. Should be do-able. We’re gonna try to eat a little healthier as well since we’ve had a “really good” summer… as you can judge from this:

also taken this morning… and no I’m not pregnant, but the blueberry fritter from Tim Hortons I had before the picture was taken was delish.
Goodbye Restaurant Food Everyday
Goodbye Blueberry Fritters
Goodbye Chips
No, I’m keeping the Chips
The thing is I’m not really doing this for health reason, although I’m smart enough to know that it is really the reason for it, I think I’m really doing it more because I’m too cheap to go buy new dress clothes for work, and the ones I have now are a tad tight with the “extra” me…
We thought we’d give it a go this Saturday evening.
Anyone care to join us?

Well, as promised, we went out and had a great time on Church St, and I’m feeling much better.. YEH.
We were Mexican Wrestlers El Barracudo and El Muerto and proved to be very popular with the cameras, and must admit that people were very polite with the please and the thank you. A nice change.

Of course DR has a full array of pictures on his blog, so go visit.
Some quotes from the evening:
Some guy NOT in costume: There’s really not that many costumes this year.
Two Asian guys looking at us: Ah, Batman and Robin
Polite girl asking to pose with DR: Oh no, don’t hide your tummy, I want the picture with the tummy.
Tall dude with camera to us: Be sexy! (we both go in to full Betty Page mode) Not that sexy! (We both revert to wrestler pose) Yeah, that’s better, that’s sexy!
Asian girl in broken English to DR: Ooooh, you havah bigah belly.
Guy dressed as warrior from Planet of the Apes to DR: Ape shall not kill… whatever the hell it is you are.
We’ve never modeled for so many pictures we’re never going to see…
