Health Status
I am feeling very exhausted today. I wasn't able to get to sleep last night and on top of that I had to get up at 5 AM so that I could get to work early today. I am feeling pretty weak, but that may be due to the lack of sleep combined with the fact that I was about 2 hundred calories short of my goal yesterday. I am finding that I am not eating enough calories early on in the day and then when I get home from work I am looking for things to eat to fill my calorie target. I am going to plan in more calories in the morning so that this doesn't happen again. This way I'll eat lighter as the day goes on. I missed my gym workout this morning since I had to get into work early. I am hoping to get some exercise in later today, but as you'll see in my ramblings, it's a pretty full day (That's no excuse! ).

Blood Work Results - I'll post these once I get a call back from the Doc. I am expecting good triglyceride and cholesterol numbers.

Miscellaneous Ramblings
In addition to The Biggest Loser, I also enjoy watching Survivor. Last nights episode was pretty interesting. I think Yul is one of the smartest players I've seen in the game. He thinks through every angle of the game and each decision is carefully calculated. One downfall may be that he did not think to get Ozzie out of the game soon enough. Ozzie is now dominating the immunity challenges and has a good chance of making it to the end.

Like I was saying in my status I had to get into work early this morning so that I could leave around 11AM. My son, Aaron, has his Holiday program at school at noon and I told him I would be there to see him. After the Holiday Program is over my wife and I are going shopping for Christmas gifts. I am hoping to stay away from the mall, but that may not be possible. Since I am suffering from lack of sleep today, I am hoping to get a nap in sometime today so that I'll have some energy to jog later. If I don't get my exercise in today, I'll get a good nights rest and get up Saturday morning and jog.
