i actually heard this sentence spoken to me. as the guy's supervisor, i immediately assigned him to night shift. then i looked at myself.

yup. i can blame one thing mostly. okay, two things. but the easiest is alcohol consumption. faack..i have been drinking a lot of beer. it started with Covid lockdown, but i cant even blame that anymore. i have made the move to stop drinking altogether. i will miss the social aspect of it all. ironically, my beer drinking group is the skinniest group of mofos. they dont get fat at all.

....and i eat to much. i have cut down already starting beginning of last week.

i'm gonna do this, and this thread is now my contract with myself to get it done.

i mountain biked 4x last week. yesterday, i damn near almost froze. i started riding at 30 degree weather, and when i got off my bike, i think it warmed up to a balmy 32 deg.

last night was our anniversary meal (14 years!!) . wife and i shared a tiny steak and lots of veggies at a steak house. i ate a tiny bit of red meat and filled myself up with veg. the waiter gave us a celebratory glass of bubbly, but i declined it. it felt weird!

what is interesting is that i quit riding my bike because of kayak fishing. i am going to ride my bike when i am not fishing. should work out.

no booze, eat less, what i eat is better for me, and exercise. that's the plan.
