I did go shooting in the afternoon, target above, carrying my pistol concealed under the belt upon the sagging belly flab, by the end of the day I had wear marks, back to shoulder carry for concealment and definitely comfort.

Feeling like I am getting stronger...

The stomach isn't sagging as much, a bit tighter, the stepping out is longer and stronger, the muscles tighter just enough - of course the fat still sits covering much I wish it didn't, but as I go it will, too.

Talked to one of the younger ferry boat captains, he is looking for a program to get healthier before he feels too old and out of it. I recommend Younger Next Year... for the doctor's wisdom.

Itching must be healing...

I also have some nice taught to my muscles from exercise, best not skip today.

After jogging went into work mode on yard, good practice for sitting position on shooting. Too much sun, so head arms and hands are burnt, I did finally put a hat on before I got Sunstroke - Mad Dogs and Englishmen came to mind.

Lack of discipline will get me no where some day...

Lonely and eat too much while sitting watching the boob tube, so sad, so wrong

Okay I am lazy and sick....

One of the younger old men of my church (younger than I) had a heart attack and has a stent now. And I spent a half hour talking with Medicare for my wife instead of exercising, but then I didn't exercise all weekend, so it is my fault.

Proudly reported to Wyatt that I had made 205.2 pounds, but then on the 13th after pigging out on Sunday and rolling around fat I weigh 209.2 pounds on Monday. Sigh.

I wrote about government health care on Just the Library Keeper. Not that I know anything about how difficult it is to herd cats.

Friday, thank God for Fridays...

It was actually a pay day, but my Earning and Deductions Statement hadn't preceded the day so I was a bit confused, also the day to turn in my reports for June which I couldn't because I had not brought my memory with me... I forgot it.

I did enjoy riding the motorcycle, hard and fast enough, leaning into the turns and rolling the throttle to keep it up.

Doing too much on the computer, wishing there were some one out there for me, but not really. Best check my Lotto tickets, I did all the updating of my money until tomorrow night, the economy in this home is better although we look like we are in transition (moving stuff!).

Break on Independence Day Weekend...

So I was calling the Range at Wade's DAR as the Line Boss for the Fourth and Fifth of July, so I went off program but kept on my feet and sounding off.

Really slack but one has to get on the road to do the work, so I took the step.

No matter what shape your stomach is in?

Okay, I am a slug. I did promise myself a good jog on the 2nd of July, and it never happened, what a wimp!

2 July 2009: Weight 208.0 pounds, BP 146/85 or 130/82 and Heart rate of 47 or 19 beats per minute. 3CU hangs, 3PU hangs, 8 dips, 50 reps of basic three and the Walk to the dock, good pace good stretch and that was it.. for the day.

It was a beautiful Sunny warm day, that turned hotter and made me think I should wait until a bit later to go jog after dinner, the slippery slope to non-achievement and I get rolling down it so well. I played a computer war game instead of jogging, a game I could have paused for the thirty-five minute short route. Must remind oneself that the beginning of every exercise event is getting the body into the start position, which seems to be tougher than anything else.

I do feel stronger, like to think my muscles are responding to the exercise and stretching, that as I work out and up I will get better at all of it and not to be too impatient - not only Rome was't built in a day, but most heroic figures had to spend much time in training to get good enough to survive the first parts of battle. Gates of Fire has the best description of the cowardice that comes from fatigue and just a bit of fear, when one saves his last for himself...

To become stronger turn off the electrical noise...

You want to get that jog in, stop watching television and reading blogs, go out the door and sweat sweetly... the only way to

This morning: weight 206.8 pounds, Blood Pressure 111/88, Heart rate 48 bpm. 3CU hangs, 3 PU hangs, 20x3 basic exercises. Walk to the dock. Jog gently 369 cal. 45% fat, 116 Hr, Z49m11s Ex56m37s. found one nickle, changing stride, impact of foot and push off feels better. Stretches and light dumb bells to finish.

Great mouse trapper resting athlete....

I got two mice yesterday, one large and one small, the trap is re-set for those that don't understand that cheese is dangerous when one should be outside consuming little natural foods.

I also seemed to fall into a rest day. I got up on time on the clock, but then went back to bed after breakfast for a light nap.

Weight was 205.4 pounds, Blood Pressure was 131/82 and Heart rate 49 beats per minute. Only light exercises: 3 CU hangs, 3 PU hangs, 8 tiny Dips, 20 reps of the 3 exercises, 3 CU hangs, 3 PU hangs, 8 more tiny dips. Then dress and off to the Credit Union and work. Walk down to the dock for my two miles maintenance movement. Hot in my heavier jacket and long sleeve shirt. Notice muscle aches while working, they would complain since they are being worked more than normal as I try to recover my toned hard body (which I only think I had in tenth grade football season once, the abs were awesome!). I napped both ways on the ferry and had chicken and cakes when I got home, with fruit. Too much cake, but I left some. During the cool down of the evening before bed, I worked out with fifteen pound dumb bells enough to move and flex, twists and stretches for more maintenance of muscle.

I am taking blood pressure and cholesterol medication and am sure I get liver malfunction because of it - but my liver is probably in good shape being a mostly non-drinker. But LDL is needed for building and repairing body tissue and suppressing it isn't the smartest thing to do but seems to make my doctor happy. I think the muscle ache is only trying to get rid of the toxins and not having the blood vessels open and working as they would if I trained regularly. Will continue to exercise and get hard on that road work, where more of the conditioning happens, the weights and body resistance exercises are good but limiting in calorie burn. I expect my weight won't drop until about week two of hard long road work and then continue down. Goal is 187 or 186 pounds of lean and mean... well, not too mean.

One of my former inmate workers goes by Flaco, in Spanish 'skinny'.
