Worked out with weights this morning after taking the dogs for a brief walk. The muscles definitely objected but I have more energy. I suspect I will be sore here shortly, if not tomorrow. See how the soreness goes but the goal will be to add in weights twice a week. I need to walk the dogs later this afternoon when I get home. This should be good for today exercise-wise.

Food-wise, the conference food, I have no idea how some of the food is prepared and could not find someone to ask about the buffet. It is hard because it actually is all consistently delicious and so want to try everything; however, there are some smarter choices to make: I had the vinagrette instead of the creamy dressing they were offering for the salad, and just a teaspoon or two instead of drenching it; the chicken in broth instead of the beef with glaze; there were some steamed vegetables instead of creamed ones or the mystery sauced ones; and the torture were the rolls. I think it is best I stay away from anything other than whole grains. Fortunately, I heard that the desert was not that good so nothing missed there. Perhaps I can have the strength to do this again today. Praying the desert will be terrible again, and not something chocolate.
