GlennM's Journal, 20 December 2010

Doing well. My writing is getting better. I may start a website for it - literary agents expect this nowadays I've read... it can be done at certain sites for free. I hope to get out walking more in the days ahead as long as it is not too cold outside. I am more of a night owl than a morning person as most of you know by now. I know I can eat fairly normally for me and not gain anymore weight if I just exercise and now my back is fairly OK compared to this summer; my feet are a bit sore still from a very long walk on Friday and a shorter walk today. I think if I limit my calorie intake to 1500 a day instead of like 2000 then I will lose weight steadily especially if I'm getting frequent exercise. I will try to get on journals Monday and do two words tomorrow as it is almost time for fatsecret to change the day 1 a.m. here on the East Coast...

Hi Glenn, you sound well and things seem to be moving right along for you. It's good to hear you in such good spirits. If you are walking, then your arthritis is controlled well. I have not been too bad lately, but have so much going on, ~ no exercise. I have picked up a couple pounds with the holiday eating but am going to get down & dirty again on Jan 2. Made myself a promise to get really serious for however long it may take to drop about 7 or so pounds, 2 that I gained and 5 more in addition. 7 lbs isn't much, but when you try losing it, it's tough. Have a good one buddy and stay warm.

Hi NN- Good to hear from you. I have something wrong with my back and need an MRI most likely - it will be done in the coming weeks. I have to add a bit to the first book, though there are six in progress I'm taking notes for all the time. I find that I am rarely bored as I'm always thinking up something and when I'm not am listening to music primarily or reading things. I hope to walk a mile or two about three times a week - it certainly gets the weight down fast. I must get on your journal soon, I have been so busy with my writing I'm not getting on here enough - or as much as I want to either...

All those books, how do you keep them straight? I guess when you are the writer, it all works out. Not good about your back. What do you think happened? A slipped disc or something? I hope it's nothing serious. Good for you on the walking. I have no excuse, but I can invent a few ~ LOL. Have a great day Glenn.

It is easy to keep the books all straight because each one is so distinctive that there is no way I will mix them up - I've read some writers have twenty or thirty books going at once, believe it or not. My back feels OK, but there may be inflammation there probably from the arthritis and there is narrowing of the spine beginning too. I am healthy otherwise, no problems except being on psych meds, which really wipe one out to a great degree... I hope to get on more journals today sometime, this evening we're having a big dinner in my building - I'm having prime rib and am looking forward to pigging out a bit! :)
