I have been away for a month. The first three weeks I was at conferences. Even though I did my best to exercies, some of the time I had no access to a gym. And it is hard to eat well when somebody else is preparing your food. I have been back to normal (sort of) for a week now. I started running again. It is amazing how much cardio-fitness I have lost. I "ran" every day last week but the longest I can actually run without walking is about 10 min right now. The first day I ran in 1min intervals. I have found a 3.5mile loop around my house with one major hill. I think my first goal is to be able to do the entire loop only walking up the hill. Then I will move to a longer loop. There are a lot of hills in CA.
It is also time to start keeping track of my weight. For the past month I didn't have a scale but now I should have one for the next five weeks. I will try to weigh-in on Mondays at the gym. I am not thrilled with my starting point but actually I have at least not gained weight since May so it is not so bad.
