THE PHILLIES WIN!!!  THE PHILLIES WIN!!!  THE PHILLIES WIN!!!
OK, this is going to be my last post about the Phillies for awhile, but I have to celebrate a little bit here!!  The last time this happened was 28 years ago.  I was a Senior in High School in 1980, and now I’m less than 2  [...]

10-28-08 – Healthy You Update

Posted in weight loss, tagged , , on October 28, 2008 | 7 Comments »

I had an interesting experience this past weekend.  I went to visit some friends up in Pennsylvania.  I believe I’ve mentioned before that I have sleep apnea and use a BiPap machine for sleeping.  When I unpacked the parts onto the bed I was going to sleep in, their Goldendoodle was hanging around the bed.  [...]

Just a quick update tonight.  My back and leg were feeling better at the beginning of the week, but aren’t feeling quite as good now.  I guess good is a relative term since they haven’t felt “good” for the better part of a year.  I didn’t get any walking in today, but will try again [...]

10-20-08 – Healthy You Challenge Update

I’m off to a better start this week than last week.  My back pain is slightly improved.  I got a small amount of walking in today, and plan on getting more in tomorrow.  I believe this is without question the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life.  I may have said that before, but [...]

I was planning on writing a post tonight about how I continue to have trouble sticking to my food plan, but that’s going to have to wait until tomorrow night.  I’m sorry to keep talking about the Phillies in my posts, but a little while ago they punched their ticket to the World Series by [...]

10-08-08 – Stressed for reasons beyond my control

Posted in weight loss, tagged , on October 8, 2008 | 1 Comment »

I continue to be stressed out about things I can’t control.  I know there’s absolutely nothing I can do about the current economic mess that’s gone global.  I don’t know why I even bother to check my 401K, but I do.  I suppose I’m lucky, because I’m only in my forties, so I have time [...]

I just have a short update tonight, because it’s getting late and I’m really tired!  I haven’t been doing very well on my walking lately.  My back, hip, and leg continue to bother me.  I’ve been trying some stretches.  It feels better after I do them, but the overall pain continues.
I’ve lost some weight the [...]

10-05-08 – The Phillies, Random Notes

Posted in weight loss on October 5, 2008 | 2 Comments »

The Phillies won their National League Divisional Series Playoff today against the Milwaukee Brewers.  The first round is only 5 games, so they won 3 games to 1.  Now they go to the League Championship Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers.  If they win that, if I dare to hope that far, they’ll go on [...]

10-01-08 – Beltway Bedlam

Posted in politics, tagged , , , , on October 1, 2008 | 3 Comments »

OK, fair warning – tonight’s post isn’t about weight loss, it’s about politics.  So, if you don’t want to read, feel free to click off.
I noticed that the “bailout” bill (I’m not sure what else to call it) passed the US Senate tonight.  A few minutes ago, I saw Sen. Harry Reid (D) and Sen. [...]
