Keeping At It

Peter Johnson, 30 min. 2 miles.

We hauled out some rain gear, realize now that walking from home base allows being able to dry off, change out of wet clothing, take a post walk nap, eat . . .

It's been raining, but we get out and walk anyway. I get wet. It's 30 minutes / 2 miles, and when I get back I can warm up and dry out, stash the wet togs in the laundry room, and rest, take a nap. We're working to do this walking whether I feel like it or not, first thing in the AM when I get up and get going.

"Weight of the Nation" -- on HBO.

If fear and loathing results in progress, then I'm progressing!

I walked Peter Johnson last night and again this mid-morning. It FEELS GOOD -- a specific palliative solution for a lot of angst, depression, existential anomie . . .

2.01 miles, and I'm doing it in about 30 min. w/ walking poles.

Weight is UP -- 222.3 and 31% My diet is fur Schlecht. We need to get back to the veggies and fish routine, do some steaming. The GOOD NEWS is that my blood glucose is under control in spite of myself.

Back At It -- Once Again, Some More

My pal Lindsey got me out walking "Scout" -- Carley's pooch. So I've been squeezing in about 30 min. of walking, three days in a row now. Beginning to adjust to rain and gaps/glitches in schedules . . . keeping at it regularly rather than religiously.

Link from Motorcyclist Cafe provides some excellent discussion of the health benefits of walking regularly . . . Diabetes, heart disease, stress, depression:

Weight is down -- circa 217 lbs, 27% fat.

Diet still undergoing diabetes 2 adjustment. I need to eat, will stop at McDonald's to get food even though it's high fat, high salt. It's a better option than going hypoglycemic.
