Weight struggles

Well, I've now done what I had hoped to never do again - I crossed the 190 mark again. This weekend I weighed in at a monster 195lbs. OUCH! That's way too close to the dreaded 200 number that I swore I'd never cross again.

Last night I finally made a point of getting to bed at a reasonable hour - still later than I wanted, but a couple of hours earlier than my recent "evenings" have been. Then, at 5:45am I got out of bed and my wife and I headed for the gymn. I had a good upper-body work-out and am looking forward to tonight's run. It won't be very long, as I'm still concerned about my ankle, and with all this extra weight I don't want to do any damage.

I've planned out a two-a-day work-out schedule - every evenings will be running. Mon/Wedn/Friday are weights in the morning, Tues/Thurs/Sat is computrainer in the morning. If I can keep a handle on my eating I should shed some big pounds this month.

My fear is next week's trip up north to Fort McMurray. That always throws my schedule out of whack.
