Last week was a good week. I mostly behaved myself in the food department. I got myself more organized for the week ahead. I ate at work for most of my meals.

I ended my week with a short urban hike through the tea gardens at Brackenridge park.

Which is funny because it would appear Pokémon Go is no longer updating with my steps. Not really certain how it broke. But I did do pretty well on steps and went on a nice long walk at Woodlawn lake at night to play some Harry Potter.

I know I got the steps in.

Time for a new week and new challenges.

This blog post is a little late, but then the first checkin was late.

My goals have been all over the map.

Goal 1: Get Outside

This has improved. I have been on a couple of river trips for kayaking or just enjoying the sun. I have also been hiking more and just enjoying the fresh air.

Goal 2: Read a new book

I have lagged behind on this one significantly. I have the books, just not the will power to read them. I think I might start bringing one to work to read during lunch breaks.

Goal 3 and 4 have been all but forgotten. Maybe next year I can try again on them.

This week started off rough. I came down with a stomach bug from Austin, so I didn’t have any solid food for the first half of the week.

After I felt better, i noticed that I had cut down on the cokes and that led to some weight loss. I have been drinking more crystal light and fewer sodas. This has been a tremendous help for my energy levels.

Once life calms down, and the relatives leave town it’ll be back to the gym.

Which I think I’ve said a few times. I think I should have a gym bag and maybe start going after work.
