Two days ago, I went to the gym in the evening.  I could only go for 45 minutes, but I went.  Yesterday I went to the gym on my lunch hour and got in another half hour.  I’m also eating lighter with veggies, fruit, tuna being the main bits.  Unfortunately I did make trips to Tims the last two mornings and had a small coffee and buttered bagel.  I reduced the coffee!  I didn’t get cream cheese!  Well, the real problem here is when I stay up later, I feel that need for a coffee very strongly.  I must go without the coffee.  I must say no.  I still can’t believe I went nearly 18 months without.

I also got new batteries for the scale.  The bad news is that my starting point is officially … 240 lbs.  That means I’ve put on 10 pounds in the last 4-6 months.  The challenge is now bigger than ever.  Can I get fit and lose 50-60 pounds?  Can I run a 5k?  Stay tuned…
