I was just scanning my goals, thinking how hard it is to make any progress on anything when you can’t sit down, and can only stand up for 90 seconds at a time, and lying in bed leaves you either doped up or throbbing in pain. Then I noticed this goal, forgotten in the time-consuming races of running my business and becoming a writer for more than six months. On the bright side of a back injury, I’ve lost about 10 lbs, and my waistline is back down to 34” or a little less. That puts my WtHR at 0.511. I am only 0.75” away from my goal.

I wonder why I’m losing weight. I would have thought the inactivity would make my weight go up. But I suppose pain causes a higher heart-rate, which burns more calories. _{or it could be giving up alcohol because of the pain meds} Whatever. At least there’s an upside!
