Yup, there’s a little bit more of me there than there should be. Ah, once this was a non-issue. Even well into my 30’s I walked 35 minutes each way to my old school. And I smoked. A lot. Then I quit the cigarets and moved to a job much closer to my house, and I grew. Eventually I got back to walking a bit, and back to a size not so much greater than before I quit smoking. But the last 2 years there has been unintended expansion, this fall particularly bad. People tell me it’s nothing horrible, but I know about the difference…. So now I am taking regular measurements. Back to daily walks. (Went ice skating in Wollman Rink with some seniors from my high school Thursday. WootWoot!) And you know, salad, fruit. Only one ban: no more chips.

I’ll take where I had stabilized as 2718 (and the charts say that that number is ok, though on the high edge of ok). Straight proportion: New Years, 3093 was the number. (Shouldn’t I really be using natural logs?). It would be nice to see 2718 again before the end of the school year. Better yet, 2558, that’s a pre-smoking number, just not realistic. And every once in a while I will post with the current number and a link back to this post.

Oh yeah, the category? “The Wide World”
