The difference two years makes

I weighed myself this morning.  174.4lbs  Two years ago, I would have been overjoyed at this.  10 pounds less than what I weighed at that point.  But, less than half a year ago, I was under 170.  

I haven't really been able to go out walking, because my back hurts too much.  I did yard work yesterday.  Wound up with like 12K steps.  With that, and all the bending, raking, and lifting... my back feels like someone is shoving a knife through my spine.  Not happy making.  

Of course, I keep forgetting to take any painkiller.  The memory thing isn't just for trivia.  

My scale seems disappointed in me.  It's biometric, so shows all the fun stuff like muscle/fat/protein/etc.

Or maybe I'm just disappointed in me.  I'm not gonna let it dusty my shiny.  I will keep doing my best to be the healthiest me I can be.

Not much

 Not much has happened.  I'm hovering at about 170 pounds.  My sugars are doing ok.  I've been in pain since my back went out.  I lose track of when that was.  So my heart rate and blood pressure have been high.  I've been very bad about watching it.  

I did take a walk this morning.  It's been unseasonably warm.  I think it got to 70 today.  

I've got a cold.  And feel like crap.
