And the Battle Continues

10-21-10: The last week has been very difficult for me. I am constantly craving food. I have picked up on my exercise since being sick, but the over eating is getting to me. I am so far staying at the 214 pounds mark, but worry that come Sunday the scale will go through the roof.

The exercising is getting harder to stay motivated to do. But guilt can be a wonderful thing as long as it keeps me exercising.

The change in the season is also hard for me. I really do not like winter. But guess you got to have it to have spring and summer again.

10-07-10: Well the Challenge is over and the dust is settling. Its been a fun ride. I and several others did the Mike's Mad Dash 5k and had a good time. I plan on doing it again next year. Will probably have several of my family members with me then.

As of to date, my weight is at 214 lbs. I've been sick the last six days so exercising went by the way side. I am hoping to start back up tonight when I get home.

Was in St. George over the weekend and had an opportunity to hike in Zion's Canyon. That was fun to do and beautiful to see. I commented to my wife Kate that at the beginning of the summer I would not have even tried to hike due to my weight an lack of energy. It made me feel good to be able to do it.
