A Humorous NSV

swordsmith · September 2011

So last week I'm standing in this long hallway at work talking to my supervisor. My gym, diet and krav maga partner- who I have been on this lifetstyle change journey with since April 4- walked into the hallway behind me.

Now you have to understand that by "partner" I mean she is there with me 5 days a week at 6:00 AM in the gym, we walk at lunch, we do krav maga 4 nights per week, and we are training together for a 5k race another 3-4 times per week. We also motivate each other when we plateau, have a bad day or just get that urge to dive head first into a half gallon of rum raisin ice cream. So we pretty much have been right with each other as we lose weight and get healthier.

She gets halfway down the hall and I hear her so I turned to say hi and she just stopped in the hall and looked a little stunned. So my gym buddy says "WOW! I havent really seen you from a distance and I thought you were Bruce! I didnt know it was you until you turned around- you are so THIN from the back"

Needless to say this has tickled the hell out of me if I could have my gym buddy be taken aback by the weight loss!
