back on track

I am back down to 292. That is good news even if I am still 1 pound heavier than 2 weeks ago.

I was on vacation all last week and working around the house. That helped keep me busy and keep my mind off of food. I was also able to get out the the gym a few times. I have been teaching my wife proper freestyle swimming technique. She is getting a lot better at it and she may be able to join me soon with my laps. She is looking forward to it. She has been working on her own weight loss. She is doing really well. I don't think she is tracking her weight per se, but she is going down in clothes size and looking real good. Not that she hasn't always been a knockout to me. I married way out of my league.

She reminded me this week that even if I am not losing massive weight, I am building muscle. She says that she sees a big difference. I guess I need to take that into account.

I haven't been working on the pushups since I last mentioned it but I am looking forward to concentrating on that goal this week. I have been lifting and working on the muscle groups to help me with pushups. It would certainly be an easy routine to work into my day especially on the days I can't get to the gym. I don't know why I am so reluctant to workout at home.

I am back, with perspective.
