Day 36

Another busy day playing supervisor at work. At least the guys aren't giving me too much hades for it. It's enjoyable being part of the decision making process again. It makes me feel like my opinion actually matters, even if it really doesn't.

Hard to believe but I've lost another three pounds in just a matter of a few days. I hope I can keep up this pace. I'm not cheating on my diet, and I'm definitely not skimping on the walking so I guess all I need to do is just keep doing what I'm already doing.

I've evn dropped down another pant size! It's hard to believe that I'm back in a size 38. I want to get down to a loose 32 though so I do have my work cut out for me. No worries though, because this "lifestyle change" has not really been as tough a pill to swallow as that darn Metformin. I can't wait to get off of it. The constant sense of malaise from it is encouragement enough to keep moving.

Well, that and the fact that the guy in the mirror is slowly becoming more tolerable to the eyes.

My wife deserves to be with the guy she married ten long years ago. He was thin, confident, energetic, and full of life, hope, and passion. I hope that he's still in there'd, and fully intact.

Day 36: 7.3 miles in 130 minutes.

Again, not bad for a guy who used to just sit on the couch until it was time to sleep.
