Wow, where does the time go? Here is just a little update. The week before last I spent at the King of the Hammers Race in So. California. I managed to hike my ass off but the drinking I did made up for any weight I would have lost so that was a "0" week.

This week however I seem to be back on track and down to a weight I have not seen in about 24 years. I still have issues with the nausea as soon as I have ANYTHING to eat but it sure works to loose weight. I also am looking more like a wrinkly dog day by day. Small price to pay though.

I am able to play at least a couple hours of tennis without massive coronary pain and I managed to hike this dessert and trails without much problem at all last week.

Clothes are still an issue as well. I just bought a pair of jean a couple of weeks ago and worn them 4 times now and they seem too big. I am easily down to an XL from a 3X size and still dropping.

I plan on having blood work done soon to make sure all my numbers are ok and I will post results.

Working the kitchen is definitely a problem in that I can hardly stand to taste some of the food and I am already full by the time the food is finished. It is very frustrating when you manage to make a great meal and you are literally done in 2 bites.

Here is to eating off of other people's plate.
