All right fellas, Perry and I have reported in, where's everybody else? Good news for all I hope, but if not, there's always the new week.

Way to go!

Got a mile in today after school. Smoked a Torano Virtuoso on the trip.

Chili and french bread pizza w/ no cheese is very filling. I'm stuffed.

Dinner for me tonight was to the grilled salmon with mixed veggies, a bowl of collard greens, and a couple of slices of this killer garlic bread that my wife brought home. Darn her... I could have done without it.

Starting is half the battle.

[Smokin Gator]

I upped my treadmill time by 5 minutes this morning. That puts me at 45 minutes. The program I am doing goes at 3.8 miles per hour, then 3.8 miles an hour with a 6 degree incline for 2 minutes, then back to 3.8 miles per hour, then 4.0 mile per hour. Last week I started jogging during the 4.0 mile per hour part. It is definitely getting easier.

Breakfast - My usual bowl of All Bran
Snack - cheese stick
Lunch - will be a tossed salad and a hamburger patty
Dinner - I have no idea yet!!!

I hope you guys can get in a little exercise today.

Week 2, Day 2:

Breakfast: oatmeal. 4pts
Luch: ham sandwich 3pts
Dinner: pork tenderloin along w/ some vegetables of some variety (haven't decided yet (?pts)


If the rain holds out, the wife and I are going for another mile (about time to up it). I need a treadmill here. Had a Gazelle, but sold it at a yard sale late last year.

A cool gadget to get would be a Garmin forerunner I have the 305

Pork Tenderloin wrapped in bacon w/ potatoes, wild rice, and butter beans last night overdid it for me. But I'm still on track for the week. I got out and walked the mile too.


Week 2:
Day 3

Breakfast: Oatmeal (4pts)
Lunch: Ham/spinach sandwich (3pts)
Dinner: ?
I've got game duty tonight, so no dinner w/ the family. I'll have to figure out something light yet filling to eat. Not sure about getting in my walk either. Gonna be a long day at school today.



Where's the rest to check in? Haven't seen a few people in here for a couple of days. You guys were providing me w/ some support by just posting your routines in here. Hopefully I'm providing some sort of support by posting as well.

Hey brother... I am glad you got your walk in yesterday.

Dinner last night was chili and cornbread. I didn't over eat though.

I only got a 35 minute workout this morning, but I went a little harder than usual.

Breakfast - Bowl of All Bran
Snack - cheese stick
Lunch - Chili and cornbread
Dinner - ??? My son has a soccer game so I am not sure. I am pretty much in the same boat as Andy on this one. I think I may just make a turkey sandwich and take it with me.

Keep up the good work Andy!!
