The new avatar is pre-wegs taken on a leaf peeping trip in October 2009. I weighed about 170 then. I was swimming 1500 meters 2-3 times a week and walking 4 miles on the other days.
Today's workout was 30 minutes walking (still at reduced pace to avoid aggravating the shin splint) and 3 dozen crunches. Hope I'm making progress to reach my pre-wegs weight and physique.

Hey,
Does anyone else have a Nike Fuelband? This is what I use to measure my activity. If you do, we can become Nike friends.
I won't go into detail, but I've seen a big decrease in my activity since my onset of Sciatica, as moving around is extremely painful. I've been quite busy today (my numbers/results agree), but I'm suffering for it pain-wise now.
Friday's workout was preceeded with a small fender bender on the way to the Y. Both my wife and I are OK. Damage to our car is "minimal" (whatever that means to the body shop).
Workout was 35 minutes walking, shoulder press 24 reps at 20 lbs, chest press 24 reps at 40 pounds, and 36 crunches.

The most excerise I have done the last 2 days is right arm lifts ( lifting fork to my mouth ) Went to dinner last nite before seeing a Circus Solle show and today was Valentines Day so we went for a early dinner. Had a big plate of Greek garlic penne pasta. When I got home I tried doing the body scupting recorded show but when it came it lifting weights I had a sharp pain in my chest,so I quit, probably heartburn from all the garlic but I figured I make up for it tommorrow.
Love the pic Pete !!!!
