A/N: So, I've taken a few days out from Jae's diary to enjoy a long weekend. Now let's get back in. And today's entry is based on a tweet from another serving soldier, in which he told about Jae complaining that he put on too much weight. My earlier predictions are eerily accurate, it seems!  

I know you can get addicted to working out just as you can get addicted to drinking or eating or tidying up or… anything really. Even if you wouldn't think so after a day like today. Weekends are more relaxed here when you're not on duty, so come Monday they try and remind us what we're here for.

Today was end-to-end PT. Run, assault course, power circuit, and then crazy games on the drill court. I should be wiped out. Actually, I am as wiped out as everybody else. But that doesn't mean I can stop.

I know why I'm heading to the gym when everyone else is heading towards the nearest flat surface… of course I do. Our last medical checkup says I just keep piling on the pounds. The waistband of my uniform trousers says so, too. And I just can't face the idea of getting fat. Building muscle is easier to handle, so…. weights.

Both Junsu and Chun were ing pleased when I told them how much weight I'd gained. Which makes me wonder: did I really look so hagged? And if I did why didn't they tell me? Or did they and I simply wasn't listening?
