Well, it's Time

JAN 1, 2019
Well, it's time.... I have been sedentary for over a year... I was Mr. October with Pancreatitis two years in a row.  As I was just getting ready to check out of the Hospital my back went out.  The pain of Pancreatitis pales in comparison to the back pain... Dr Carr went to admin, Dr Pickens retired. Dr Cabel moved to Cour de'lene, Dr Niemyer finished his training and is a hospital only Doc. I finally saw a Chiropractor. Not expecting help I must admit I got some relief

I have a new Primary Car Doc now... my weight ballooned during the year and now my sugar is creeping up. A personal best weight of 247... how in hell?  I weighed 127-140 until I was 26. I was an avid cyclist starting about age 12... I would be gone all day on my bicycle

And so it begins... I never was one for New Years resolutions but I understand why that is a thing... It's pretty impossible to avoid sugar through the holidays.
