Broken Rear

[edit] - Did I mention 222.2lbs as of last Sunday morning?  Exactly 20lbs lighter than I was 17 June of this year. :)

Brakes.  Rear brakes on the F150 were metal-to-rotor.  Just horrid.  Jacked around, literally, for an hour and 30 minutes tonite trying to get the jack enough of a spacer/booster to lift the truck's back wheels. 

Finally got to it - was my first time w/ F150 rear brakes.  Everything went as smoothly as possible.  Got it done. That's the important part.

Today was a great day because I chose to respond greatly to things around me.  My arms  are scoring a non-scale victory.   As i flex my arms, I'm getting a cut-line - horizontal - showing actual-if-slight muscle definition.

That's years and years - decade or more - since I felt any amount of strength.

I ate a lot today - felt a lot of hunger.

Oh - another non-scale-victory:  The shorts I wore all last summer?  Walking out to the truck to start the repairs...they literally slid off my hips and to my ankles.  There I was, standing in my work gloves, t-shirt, Pirate boxers, and shoes. 

You missed it.
