Bill, while I might not be up as far along in years as you I have to say it is most certainly the loss of weight. I'm a 37, partially disabled vet since 03 with 2 really boogered up legs. But I always had lots of extra strength in my arms and since having my surgery on Halloween last year I have lost so much power. Seriously changing a tire was a issue, heck even doing an oil change was getting close to struggle except for the fact I an fit under the vehicle now with out jacking it up, lol. I miss the strength but dont miss the other health issues with the extra weight. Anyway its nice to see you still put in the effort to be helpful to strangers.

I'm sure your generation has all sorts of complaints about my generation but just know my generation has so many with this next gen too. Good luck with the extra protein. I do it myself when I feel a little weaker.

I was traveling yesterday so I couldn't weigh in. Today Wasn't bad at 213, up about .4#

Two more weeks at home, then I start traveling a little bit again. I'm a getting a little bored with the new job, so getting out and working with people will be a welcome change.

Last week: 184.6

This week: 185.4 AM (183.6 After yard work)

Nice little drop there for half a day's labor. Granted it is a little "balmy" here. Balmy as in 95+ degrees with little humidity thrown in for extra measure. Have to be careful on the eating front especially at work. Mind you where I work we've only had one eatery - Mexican. Now the "café" is back open. Frankly too damn hot to want to eat food anyway. Tried it twice. Hamburger steak was little too grisly and fish was little greasy but edible.

Have to see what happens schedule wise next week. Hopefully I'm done ghosting new guy.

Go forth and have a Great Week!

I am a little shaky on the levers of power here but trying to start the weekly thread.

I meant to spend the weekend treating and painting my garage floor but a busy work week put those plans on hold. Ended up with kind of quiet weekend and saw Han Solo last night.

Last week 305.4

This week 304.4

Next week i may be traveling and unable to post. So everybody enjoy the Fourth of July holiday

I am late here. I am not sure what I weigh today, as my last weigh in was Friday. We went on the road to deliver our oldest grandchild into the hands of her aunt (our daughter), uncle, and her four cousins (aka the little monsters). Friday, after almost a week of indiscreet eating, I was up to 264, from 263 1/4 last week. Tomorrow it is back to my regular program, aka the salt mine, as I call it. I will get by - a Grateful Dead reference.

Here is our ride with the trailer. We bought this 10 year old used camper before my surgery. I fit into the booth, but just barely. Along with the outside pic is one of me sliding in with lots of room to spare. My lovely wife and I also fit onto the almost queen sized bed, but nuff said about that. You'll just have to imagine the rest.
