Instead, I lost weight. Less stress eating at the vending machines has to be part of it but I am also clearly less muscular than before.
Now that I am sedentary, I wonder if I will pack on the pounds again. When I was injured in 1988 I gained 35 pounds before I snapped out of it.
Avoid ice cream like the plague.
