Sunday Catch Up
Its been a while, so suddenly I have not been here, and lots of things have gone on. So were going to make a list.
1. Dan.
2. Self Image/Perception
3. The Wagon, and what it means to fall off
4. Training Buddy
5. More numbers
1. So first of all I need to say, atta boy, to my buddy Dan. He had his first kid. Congrats Dan. While his blog that I am linking to might not indicate it, go look for his flickr stuff, and you will see who he is. I think his blog is not even close to as cool as he is as a guy. So, everyone should mail Dan cash for his new baby.
2. Self image/perception. I was thinking about this recently. I moved not too long ago, and thought about it. In my previous home I had one mirror. It was a face mirror, and I could not see my belly. So, for some reason I never connected it. People would make comments, and I never saw it for myself. In my head, I looked like I did when I was like 20. So, I was sort of oblivious to the whole thing. I think I can look at the sort of descent honestly, and say that it happened during those college depression years. I am glad in some way to be able to see it objectively now, though it is a little soul crushing.
3. So this weekend was a big fight, so god knows I was not even close on the diet. We ate wings, and pizza, and drank Mountain Dew. I have to work on that discipline a lot more intensely, but I think I can do it. I think it means I need to work on establishing a higher metabolism through exercise.
4. The mighty El Hershbo and I have added another lap to our walk. It just about doubles the distance, and I think it is going okay. I have a hard time walking in the snow, but that is just the nature of it. I have some nice DVS shoes, and maybe they are not grippy enough, regardless, I need to walk outside more than I am right now. We usually go about 7 pm, and that is fun. The other night we ran into a deer, and Hershey nearly lost her mind. But she never pulled on the leash.
5. I lost 4 more pounds for the thursday weigh in. I am sure this weekend was a giant set back, but we shall see.
Its a journey. I think it is all about the right now, making the choice right now.
