Gaining muscle?

"My gym has special bodybuilding workouts for beginners. I signed up for the grunting class." ~ Randy Glasbergen. 

For the the fifth day in a row I have made it to the gym.  Some days I have only worked out twenty minutes and other days it has been thirty minutes.  Today was a little over forty. 

No matter the minutes, I suppose showing up is what counts.  

I guess I will go back on Monday. After a week of weight lifting I wasn't all that thrilled with the scale at the gym this morning.  I weighed five pounds more than I did on Tuesday.  How the heck did that happen?!  

I guess I could let myself believe that I gained that in muscle but I seriously doubt it!
