He conquers who endures.
– Persius

We’re in it now.  39% of the way to the goal, and the water weight is gone.  Having past 12 weeks of progress, the midpoint is coming up, and enduring the painfully slow progress is becoming both a habit and a trial.

Observations on the Week

• Running – it’s harder to get started than stop.
• Morning exercise – need to switch up the program to keep it fresh. I’ll be doing this for the next cycle.
• Sword exercises – moved up to the “heavy” practice sword – probably 10 pounds or so.  Excellent exercise.
• Business suit fits – comfortably!  Going to wear it a lot while it still fits.  Was also told this week that I look great in my suit (paraphrasing slightly, I think I blushed at the original wording).
• Still feel (ok, am) horrifically fat, but it’s a year long project.  Patience is a hard-won virtue.

Down 39 overall.
