When I first started this blog, I was hovering between 237 and 240 lbs. I have been exercising in moderate ways all this time, but mostly just good fast walking, parking the car far from entrances, cutting the grass, and other plain old good exercise things.
In the past few weeks, Margaret and I have been riding bicycles. Wonderful, one-speed cruisers, enjoying the wind in my fur and the company of an awesome woman - riding around on our bikes on the back streets of our little town. Life is good.
I'm now hovering between 212 and 215 lbs. My goal? Staying under 210. Stay tuned. We'll see where things go!

Wow. So much time has passed. Nicotine-free and now...
It's been 4 years and more than 4 months since I quit smoking. I've not had any nicotine of any kind since my quit date, 1.22.2007 (10:00 P.M. exactly).
And now, to strengthen my heart, I've had no caffeine for more than two weeks. I had cut down dramatically some time back, but have now pretty much left it in the dust. No headaches or sleepiness now. Just plain sodas, water, decaf, and good stuff like juice and milk. Well, maybe a beer now and again!
My life is on a tack that's pretty hopeful. And I've gotten to this part of the Journey to Bodhi without nicotine!
Peace to all. Back soon.
