Hard to believe it's been 20 days since my last update and I am afraid it is not good news. The weather has been so miserable and I have not been working very much so I have been putting food in my face. More than I have lately, at least. And to add to the fun I had a cold sneak up on me Monday night so maybe being able to stay home will be good for me, especially with a potential 12-25 cm of snow expected to fall on Thursday night and into Friday.
So to recap over the last three weeks, I was up by 2.2 pounds, down by 0.4 pounds and up again by 1.8 pounds for a total of up by 3.6 pounds and my total is now 29.8 which means I have to lose 18 pounds by the middle of March to get to where the doctor wants to see my weight.

Bitch and moan
Where do I start? I guess since NASCAR pre-season testing has begun I guess I'll start with the screwed up race team known as Wood Brothers/JTG Racing. Or maybe they have split up and are back to being just Wood Brothers again. Who knows and who cares, really? My favourite driver is Ken Schrader and he has been treated disgracefully by this shadow of a formerly great race team. Originally the reports would be Ken would run the Bud Shootout and 12-14 races in the historic #21 Ford. He's getting older and his career is winding down so I think most of us would accept that. In the last couple days, Eddie Wood was on Sirius Speedway with Dave Moody and said most of the races would be run with Bill Elliott, Marcos Ambrose and Jon Wood behind the wheel. No mention at all of Schrader. When Moody asked about KS, Wood responded that he may fill in for a race or 2 and that he would test at Daytona with the 49 car.
As far as I am concerned, I hope the Wood Brothers don't make a race this season, unless Ken is behind the wheel and they finish 43rd in any race they do start.
Onto #2 and that would be the Toronto Maple Leafs. What the heck is wrong with this team? I have no answers and it seems they have none either. But I have been watching them since I was 6 years old in the days of Darryl Sittler and Lanny McDonald, through the Imlach returns years, then the Wendel Clark era and now with Mats and the gang.
My nieces and nephew are loving the Nintendo Wii. The 3 year old is actually pretty at golf on the Wii Sports disc, they also got the game based on the movie Open Season.
Oh and for those of you wondering about the weight thing, I am down by 0.4 pounds for a total of 33.4 pounds, which means I have to lose another 5 to match my highest amount of weight lost and then another 17 pounds to make my next goal. Imagine what I'd do if I had an actual exercise routine to follow. Until I am rich and can afford a gym membership I guess the dog will get more walks.

Holiday update
Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Years holiday. I know my neices and nephew did, except for my nephew coming home from visiting his father's side of the family and coming home with a case of head lice. Ick. But Santa was very good to them all and I guess the best present they got was a Nintendo Wii game system. I have played it once so far and my "Wii Fitness" age is 50. Which I guess isn't bad for my first try.
I have been telling people I was so bad that Santa didn't even leave me a piece of coal but I did get the Dukes of Hazzard, Season 2 on DVD and just need seasons 4, 5, 6 and 7 to complete my collection. And once the financial end of things gets figured out I will pick up something for myself.
As for the weight thing, since my last update on Dec 20, overall I am up by 1.4 pounds for a total of 33. Which means I am still up 5 from my first goal, which means I am 15 away from where the doctor wants to see me by my next appointment and 22 from meeting my next goal. Or to put it another way, I have to get back in gear.
Hope everyone has a wonderful 2008.
