Apologies for boring the reader

For those of you who read this blog (all two of you), I’m sure these posts about my exercise habits are a trifle boring.  Apologies.  For me, it’s a re-enforcement of why I’m doing this.  Simply to lose weight and look better.  I’ve always been self-conscious and wearing pants with a 38 inch waist don’t help.  So, these posts help me remember why I’m doing this and also help keep me focused.

One side note, I took a quick peek at the scales today (I shouldn’t have, but I did).  I weighed in at an unofficial 220 pounds.  5 pounds lighter than my last official weigh-in.

  • 3 minutes @ 6.0 – Warm-up on the treadmill

All three of us, actually. And don't forget the Watchers.
