So I had my checkup appointment on May 24, 2005. It went really well. Carrie said Dr. Friedburg was going to take one look at me and say wow you’re doing well .. see you later.

Well .. she pretty much called it. He was a little disappointed in my weight (174-176lbs), but other than that was very happy. My lungs sound totally clear, my color is great, and best of all NO LUMPS!

I informed him and his assistant of my biking plans – 40 mile ride on 6/12 for Diabetes and 50 mile ride for Interlakes Wellness Group 8/27. They are hoping I will rethink my plans and ride shorter routes, but I told them if I can’t finish them I will go shorter. How can I get better if I don’t push myself a little?

So the scans I was supposed to have in June have been postponed until Mid-August and my next appointment with Dr. Friedburg isn’t until the end of August. So Carrie and I will enjoy the two month vacation.

All in all things are going pretty well. My stamina is slowly coming back. I will try to post in the journal at least once a week now.
