Weight Down, Gas Up!


Wow I stepped on the scale today to see my new weight at 200 lbs (or 91k). I was thrilled having now lost 28lbs since January 3rd this year. Now I have to keep it up and keep it off. Things are good at work I find myself doing anywhere from 3-6hrs of cardio exercise 5 days a week. I've changed my diet to include more veggies, fruits and lean chicken and fish. I've also cut out red meat and most of my dairy.

I can't believe the increase in prices in gas for my car...shameful actually.

Regular is between $3.57 and $3.70 per gallon here in Vegas.

It's disheartening to see Big Oil making soooo much money off of trading on speculation versus actual increases in demand and supply - all the while this current administration does nothing to help. Sure we're scheduled to receive an "economic stimulus check" from the government but I'm sure most people will be putting the extra cash towards household bills and, you guessed it, gas costs. Most people haven't bothered to connect the dots...they're just waiting with their hands out. It's a sad state of affairs, IMHO. :-(

Back soon,

VP
