Thanks Chris And Tall...Funny because I read Tall's post before I went to work this morning so I've had all day to chew on it... The more I thought about it the more I realized it will be very difficult to stay the course as I struggle tremendously with my diet that I'll use almost any excuse to miss a meal...But keeping my eyes-wide open to the fact that this will become a issue I hopefully will continue to make most of my meals the night before so that I can ( as MIDDLE AGED put it ) stay methodical and not sway to far...I definately don't want it to be a case of two steps forwards, three steps back...As for swimming...Before I broke my shoulder I loved to swim but haven't done so since...Coming into the summer months I will look for reasons to do so and get over that obstacle when the time arises...Funny about the smoking...before I thought we actually had a chance of buying a house I promised my wife I would quit when we bought a house. ( I make it a habit not to break promises to her unless it is completely out of my hands and this isn't )...So as per Pikey's suggestion I have a date of the morning of August 1st 2008. It will save me $140.00USD a month and I will have plenty of places for that money to be spent else where. I will not sacrifes my workouts. MIDDLE AGED, thanks for taking interest in my journal, please feel free to come back and visit anytime, even just to stop in and say high...Work out went as follows...
