Well, we’re in our sixth month of Weight Watchers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Each week we have cheers and moans at weigh-in, but we’ve learned that if you make a decent effort overall, you lose weight over time.  At Jim’s memorial on Tuesday a weekend staffer we haven’t seen in a few months was here and asked me, “What’s going on?  Everybody looks so skinny!”<\/p>\n

Well, skinny might be a stretch, but at least is shows we’re trying.<\/p>\n

And imagine my amazement to discover at our WW meeting today that I’d lost over a pound despite a 7-day cruise and Thanksgiving coming between me and my last WW meeting!<\/p>\n

Earlier today I’d had a late lunch and came out of Benedict House just as the exercisers were getting underway.  Each day after lunch the Ranchers head outside for some physical exercise. <\/p>\n

About half the Ranchers were doing laps around the Village loop.  Six laps around is two miles.  I first encountered Kelly pedaling along singing at the top of her lungs while listening to her MP3 player.  She was dressed in every article of purple clothing she owns.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Kyle and his Aggie-decor bike<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

As we chatted for a few minutes Kyle came tearing around the corner on his bike like the proverbial bat out of hell.  I slowed him down enough to compliment him on the handsome TAMU<\/a> flag he was sporting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Natalie moseys along while engaged in a book<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Natalie has mastered the trick of reading as she walks.  There’s a girl after my own heart!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Crystal and Alan on their walk<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Alan and Crystal enjoyed each other’s company on their walk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Mike <\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Mike stopped by to say hello.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Jim after making a great catch<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Jim, Mark, Andrew, Calvin, and Lori opted to toss the football around for a while.<\/p>\n

All in all, a beautiful sight to see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
