Resolutions and a steak...

312-285-277 No not a number in Chicago. These numbers represent my weight.
God as I get older it gets so much easier to put it on and 1000 x harder to
take it off. The day goes buy too quickly and my energy levels are at about
zero after working all day. Even on an off day I'm with the kids and have
no time for me. The biggest thing that I have been doing is portion
control. For a big guy with a big appetite thats hard. I would love to dig
in to a massive t-bone steak with a mountain of garlic mashed potato's and
grilled onions and mushrooms, but Its better to only eat what fits on one
plate. I'm trying to watch carbs and cookies but Christmas make that a big
pain in the tush. Its over now and it will be easier. I'm starting to have
knee problems in my right knee. Its my past again catching up with me.
Joint pain in my spine, old broken fingers , who knows what else..... I'll
probably wind up with a cane and yelling at kids to stay off the lawn.
Back to the weight loss. I still need to drop about 52 pounds in another
9 months. About 5.7 pounds in each month to follow. Its do able..... Right
now I'm about 92 pounds heavier than when I finished High School. That was
a different world. I was big time in to lifting and martial arts. Sparing 3
minute rounds. Now I have to get mental energy to do the most basic of
motions. I have only one resolution this year and that is to drop weight.
Everything else would be gravy. I wish you all the best in the new year. I
hope that 2008 is better than 2007. Peace.
