Now that you have gone, theres no other. Tempted by the fruit of another

What a week it has been. Toby was in town until Wednesday, so it became half a week of dealing with his specific personality traits. And now it is my niece's wedding today, and she has been back in town since Wednesday with her fiancée, so the second half of the week has been her visiting and helping my sister with some details. But around all his weirdness, I was able to run 5 times this week. I got up to 2.43 miles each day.

Starting tomorrow, the day after the wedding, I will be getting back into eating healthier. I have been so bad for so long, I need to take it seriously. I don't know if I can get back to 1,600 calories each day at first, but I will get to 2,000 calories tomorrow and the next week or so, then, right after Thanksgiving, I will get down to 1,600 calories until Christmas. I know I can do it with focus.

As I said, today is my niece’s wedding, and I am a little embarrassed to be this fat. As of Monday, I was at 253.5 lbs. I know how I got here, and now it is time to take all that I have learned since the accident. Hell, I need to use everything I've learned since I started running just over 2 year ago and get healthy. I don't see this as different diets or regimens. This is all a continuation of the same thing. And I can do this. I can lose the weight and stay healthy. Just need to focus.
