Sick!

Just before Halloween I got sick. Very sick. This is notable because I used to get sick a lot before Death By Mountain, but after working on diet and exercise my susceptibility to sickness had nearly vanished. In the grand scheme of things I wasn't nearly as sick as I used to be, but I was sick for a long time. I was miserable for most of a week, bedridden for a day, and still coughing two weeks later (which is today).

My daily walking has plummeted. Just before getting sick I had been pumping out 10k steps per day, but while being sick I've averaged only a few thousand. I hope to rectify that soon.

My weight seems to be easily kept at 15 pounds lighter than what it used to be. With more care and more exercise I should be able to bring it down even more.

Weight lifting hasn't been going well for me. I hurt one of my hamstring attachments, and that is preventing a lot of progress for me. Being sick has also hurt me a lot.

Oh well. Life goes on.
