But, As I stated earlier, I want to be a little lighter and more active in the woods this fall. I want to put some miles on my boots, climb trees etc during deer season like I did in my 30's.

(I want to keep up with the boys) grin

3-1/2 weeks into this, 6 lbs.

That doesn't sound like much of an accomplishment to me, but again, I'm new at this.

I�ve got the whole month of Oct to hopefully keep it going in the right direction.



Keep it up. The best thing I ever did was get back into the shape I was in 20 years ago in the Corps. I feel about a zillion times better, I don't hurt the morning after a hockey game, and, most importantly, I can wear my dress blues again if I feel the need to dress up for the wife.

Remember, nothing tastes as good as a healthy body mass index feels. Especially out in the woods climbing a tree or dragging a deer.
