Took a little break - don't panic!

Back on Dec 10, 2011 I posted "No Change, No Surprise", where I explained that I hadn't seen any gains in 30 days. I wrote that I wasn't discouraged, and was going to continue with my routine.

Well, that didn't happen. :)

The truth is I've been very busy for over a month and I basically haven't done anything in the PE department. I haven't quit and I'm not discouraged, I simply took a break. This entire topic is a little obsessive, and I didn't like how it was invading my daily thoughts. I was happy with the way I looked, I felt pretty good about myself, and didn't want to have this nagging obsession following me into the holiday season. I wanted a little more balance. I took a break.

I'll likely re-start the routine in February and see where that takes me. I'm curious to see if a six week break will make any difference in my body's ability to 'grow'.

Just for the record, I did take some occasional measurements during this time and nothing has changed. I have to assume based on this information that results are permanent?

Talk soon.
