New Exercise Regimen

I got a new pair of boots for Christmas. Thank you Mom. I wore them for half a day inside the house to make sure they fit comfortably. Once I stepped outside, the General Store would not take them back.

Today is the second day that I've worn them to work. I believe they fit okay, by it's not like I'm floating on air. In fact, with these boots, I'm experiencing something I haven't with other footwear. The boots are heavy. They weigh 220 grams. According to the Interweb, that's half a pound. That can't be right. These things are heavy.

By the end of the day, I was ready to get them off. Not because they pinched or hurt. My legs were tired from lifting them all day.

So in one sense, this is great exercise.

Also on the health beat, I'm trying to lose some weight. I got up to the 230's and that is too fat. So I am observing the No sugar, No grains protocol and I'm not drinking beer when I get home at night.

In two days I'm down two pounds. Slow and steady, baby!
