Day 55 - BACK to work

It is hard to get a look at your back with out a good mirror system or someone to take your picture. Well, something is going on - GREAT!

I am glad it is the weekend. A tough week on multiple fronts. Good day today. Spent some time with a friend and decompressed a bit. The a few hours of yard work.

I nice lunch - for a change the "all I want" vegetable portion was less...Could be a change in the wind...could be Sunday is my weigh in day. Still a good lunch is a good lunch and I do love pumpernickel bread.

I have a workout and a lacrosse game to get in before the day ends. I hope my wife and I are going out tonight. That would be a great step.

Therapy flashback - During this process I have been remembering lots of things that have to do with body image and my relationship with food and nutrition in general. The one that has been rattling around lately is my grandmother telling me she would pay me a dollar each pound I lost when I was young (older than 5 - younger than 10). That seems so sad when i write it. And odd that a catalyst for my great progress is the loss of my job last year and the realization that if I looked and felt better - that was the one thing I could do to make a big difference in this year. Most things I have very little influence or control over and I wrung my hands about them far too much. Well, I do have influence over my diet and exercise regime. What a difference putting that energy there has made this year.

Go Team Go!
