My Computer Fried

I haven't been updating this weight loss blog because my trusty old computer finally fried over a week ago. I got over seven years of daily use out of it. I'm looking at getting a new one. Fortunately, computers these days are cheap and powerful. I'm not much of a gamer, so I am thinking on getting something from Dell for $350.

The temptation to get something better is always there. So, we shall see.

Exercise

I still exercise regularly, doing four-mile walks in the morning before work four or five times a week. I also try biking for an hour once or twice a week. After mid-October, it will be too cold to bike ride. So I've got to get in all I can now while it is still warm. There may be a few days in November when it is warm enough to bike, but that can't be predicted. Anything after the start of October is uncertain.

Weight

The last time I weighed myself I was down to 184 lbs. That's not losing weight as fast as I would like, but the trend is clearly downward.

I should hit 179 lbs. within the first 10 days of Sept. Remember, my original goal was to get down to 160 lbs. But I think I may adjust that downward to 150 lbs. when I reach it. And yes, it isn't a question of if I reach my goal, it's a question of when.

I am determined to lose the fat I accumulated the past decade and I won't rest until I reach my goal.
