221.3 pounds

After a weekend of Camping Gluttony, I was expecting to see the scale heading north. Amazingly, I maintained. It must be because I rode my bike a lot this weekend as well as a couple of long hikes.

The forecast says the weather is going to be great for the foreseeable future and so there is no reason why I should not be riding my bike to work.

So here are the reasons why I haven't ridden my bike to work this week.

Monday: Memorial Day. No work
Tuesday: Had errands and some light hauling to do
Wednesday: Planned on it. Slept in instead
Thursday: Considering it, but have after work haircut
Friday: No reason not to.

I rode a total of about 30 miles over the long weekend. That's great mileage for me. It almost makes up for the miles I should be riding.

Oh! I forgot to report on the results of meeting with my Cardiologist. Everything seems okay and there is no appreciable weakening of my heart. However, he wants to install a defibrillator in me. When I asked why, he said it is to keep my heart from stopping. I asked if I was in danger of that and he said I have always been in danger of that.

I have an appointment for the first week in June to talk to the staff Electrician. We'll see what happens from there.
