Weekly update
Weekly update
Initial part of this week went a bit troubled. In general my wife was irritable and grumpy so we had couple of verbal arguments and I was feeling generally hopeless. But eventually on Sunday morning, my wife realized that she is having irritability and mood changes because of her PMS. Thanks to that a better sense prevailed and sanity returned to our house. In the night I was allowed love for which I was kept deprived for more than
a week (which felt like ages). I am hoping for better days ( and more love ) in coming days.
In the health front weight loss progress has again resumed so it’s a good sign. Now my eight is hovering at 175-176 which is the lowest in about 10 years. I am continuing to work on it and bring it down to about 165 in next 2 mnths. Finally I am now able to 34”
Waist pants another after 10 years kind of thing. I was kidding with my wife that if I keep moving in this direction then soon my waist will be 32” probably same or less than her waist. Here are the weight loss progress details.
1. 202 to 192 ( lost 10 lbs between Mar’05 to Jun’06 )
2. --- pleateau --------- (between Jun’06 to Nov’05)
3. 192 to 180 ( lost 10 lbs between Dec’05 and Feb’06 )
4. ---pleatu ------------ (during Mar’06)
5. 180 to 176 ( lost 4 lbs during April’06)
Future targets
173 by May’end
170 by June’end

However news on the cholestral front is mixed. Total and LDL cholestral is within the range but the hdl is low … discussed with the doctor today. I am going to work on the
HDL more rigorously From June once I have achieved the weight target of 170 lbs. Meanwhile I will look at the options for increasing HDL by using fish oil etc…
On the work front things are going stable and I am feeling much more confident than what it was say about a year back.
On the home front also things are improving. We are becoming more organized and more
Productive and trying to spend more time on meaningful and enjoyable things.
