Got a call yesterday at 6am from my mom.  I knew it was the dog.  Don't know how I knew but I knew.  We just get on a wave length.  I rushed out the door and ran up there.  It was bad.  My...

So far so good today, although we did get one call from the school about David.  Apparently, this other boy with worse issues (can you imagine?), has had issues with David along with other kids. ...

So far so good.  I downloaded my pedometer yesterday.  I did over 15,000 steps up at Penn State the other day!  The good news:  2 years ago, walking around that campus I was tired and sore.  I...

Penn State game yesterday was awesome!  We won, 52 to 3.  We had great seats, 10th row off the field in the endzone.  I missed part of pregame with the band.  That was very disappointing to me...

New book I am reading called :  "Be the Hero:  Three Powerful Ways to Overcome Challenges in Work and Life" by Noah Blumenthal.  Here is one of my favorite excerpts that summarizes the book: ...

Things are no better.  David still refuses to do homework.  Paul went to school today and sat in on two classes.  David does not even bother to take notes.  Paul talked with teachers and vice...

Things have been really rough here lately.  I really can't wait to go away.  Trying to make a long story short:1)  David's check at the cardiologist went ok.  They think his heart walls are just...

Work is still crazy.  I am tired, mostly mentally.  Just totally fell of the wagon!  Pedometer battery died and 2 days to get a new one.  I got to the point where I said to myself:  Why...

Still going strong!   Sunday:  Did 13,174 steps!  Did a lot of cleaning and also 45 min walk the dog and 50 jumping jacks.  Food was coffee, Cheerios, 1% milk, 2 slices double fiber bread, 5...

Down 15.5 lbs.  I have briefly been here before.  So I am not jumping and down.  But I am going to push past this mark.  1 1/2 more lbs and I will be my lowest in over 6 years.  And I will be at...

Day 6 was yesterday.  Easier to journal the day before completely.  But I have to first say, that I weighed myself today and Thank God!  Down to 150.5 lbs.  So I lost.  And this is the lowest I...

Proud of myself!  I was REALLY stiff yesterday from the Y workout from Thursday.  I had forgotten I had not been there for 2 weeks and really pushed msyelf and paid for it yesterday.  I am just a...

Finished yesterday with 10,165 steps.  Just squeaked in there!  Was short about 900 steps last night so jogged in place until I got over 10k.  Dinner portions were probably out of whack a little...

Finished out Day 1 with 2 rice cakes and 10,408 steps.  So really good on food and exercise and just so so on water.   Day 2 (yesterday)- coffee, high fiber oatmeal, strawberries, Kashi Go Lean...

OK.  New goal.  I am going to see just how much I can accomplish in 45 days.  Trying a new tactic with myself.  How much exercise can I do?  How much weight can I lose?  How focused can I...
