yuuagoMom said that she thought I'd lost some weight again. I really hope not. I'm fine with things, and I don't want to go through the whole "None of my clothes fit" thing again. That was honestly kind of distressing.
Hopefully it's just from that cold I had recently, or stress, or something. If it's anything at all.
On another/related note, judo's going well. But I'm still frustrated with my lack of strength. My grip strength in particular has been bugging me; it's become real clear from the grip-breaking exercises we've been doing. That is, I have absolutely none, which is kind of. Uh. An inconvenience, since that's pretty important.
I do have a tool that I picked up ages ago when I was having issues with my hands - it's a ring-shaped gadget and you basically... squish it in various positions to help strengthen your fingers/hands. I guess I could start working with that a little, trying to get a small amount in on non-judo days. On the one hand, ugh, it's another Task. On the other hand, wouldn't hurt, might help. (Might just end up being a way to release pent-up stress, hah.) I dunno.
