I was able to get a workout in yesterday and today. Yesterdays consisted of 60 min walk at a 3.6 pace, felt a little weird with my circulation, also lifted some weights for about 30 min. Today only got a 45 min walk in and no weights. Going to try and get a hike in tomorrow with Cindy. Eating is going better less slips but still have one on occasion. Good luck and keep it up with everyone else in their endeavors.

I have not been writing as often as I wanted. I think about it quite a bit. I have been getting about 3-4 work outs in a week. I at least get a 60 min walk on the treadmill for each workout. I have been working in weights on a couple of the workouts. Trying to watch what I eat and it continues to improve but still is a work in progress.
Other aspects of my life are more positive and on a good path. For almost the last two months I have been seeing a most amazing woman. She has been the most positive influence on my life and has changed my out look on life. You will all meet her one day soon and you will see how amazing she is.
Work as usual sucks and I work for the most incompetent people on the face of the earth. To be able to cope I have to think they are doing their best but just don't have a clue. I need to figure out whats next quick. There are some big things coming down the pipe I just know this. Everybody keep pushing forward with what you need and want to do, you will accomplish all you set forth in your mind.
Take care and be safe, Bill

I took Sunday and Monday off. I have met someone and she has been pre-occupying my thoughts so that's why I didn't do anything yesterday. She has been a huge positive for me. She is training for a half marathon this summer.
So since Tuesday of last week I have gone everyday for 60 minutes on the treadmill. I average between 3.15 and 3.30 miles not the greatest but a start. I lifted some today but nothing to really report but that will change and it will get better. I have a lot of aches and pains from being inactive and other injuries that I have gotten over the years. The shoulders are pretty bad so swimming is still a no.
My diet has gotten better but is something that I have got to keep on top of to start dropping some weight. was really bad on my off days but when you don't do any exercise the calories add up.
Well to all of you out there keep it up.

I have had a good three days and I am taking it one day at a time. My first goal is just 60 min on the tread mill 5 out of 7 days. I have done it for 3 and my average distance is 3 miles, calories burned about 500. I have been keeping a food log in a notebook as well as using the site my fitness pal to track food and exercise. It is a pretty good site but I will need to stay on top of it, and since I am doing that I need to get back on here to support all you other people trying to live longer healthier lives. So my goal for here is going to be 4-5 times a week, keep you all up on me and me up on you. Keep up the hard work.
