June is in the books.  It was a hot month, had to get up early to survive.  I hate morning activities.

I think the most remarkable thing is that "I have endeavored in this".
June was a combination of road runs and treadmill runs.  I tried a 6 mile course a couple times, but am not ready for that yet.  Thrre miles of these hills is enough right now.

I am feeling some improvement as now when done, I am not feeling quite as close to death's door.

I Am Not Fat (anymore)

[QUOTE=Waldo;22275]I'm following this with keen interest.....
So...What's your plan on beer drinking?[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Waldo;22360]You've got to lose weight, we both know that's the key...So how do you plan on doing that?[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Waldo;22465]Sounds easy enough, but of course it isn't.... Most can't do it, but I do believe you can.[/QUOTE]

I may still look fat, but I am now officially "normal". That calls for a few cold glasses of beer to celebrate!!
Back in early April my BMI was 27.8 which equals to "overweight".
Today it is 24.8 which equals to "normal".
By the end of the year I intend to be at 23.1.

Hopefully my added activity level and dietary changes are aiding me not just to drop weight, but to also improve my fat to muscle ratio. For a young guys the rules are quite different than for a septuagenarian. Fair or not, that is reality.

July is a memory

July has been a hot month - go figure!
Not much improvement, the surprise to many is that I persevered with my program.

I expect/hope August to be nearly identical.

Don't look for improvement until October when it cools some.  Most days now I get out at the unnatural hour of 8AM to my hills and find it is over 70degrees and over 90% humidity.  I struggle to survive.
My motto remains --> "Endeavor to Persevere".
