Monday 7th

Slipped a little last night for the Super Bowl, but not much. No beer/pizza or wings for me, but I did have some pulled pork and diet (home-made with fake sugar and low-cal mayo) cole slaw!!  Proud of myself. Walked this afternoon. Need to do more, but is big as I am, need to lose some weight just to work out. I can walk about a mile, then my knee and back really start to bother me. Still under 1200 calories a day. Wife too. Have a lot of family support in this venture. Nice to hear. Caught a little flack from a few old friends from the paper Sunday, but in a way, it was nice to hear from them. Good luck to all. Just have to tell myself that this is a marathon, not a sprint. Under 300 by July 1st is the goal.
