@UpDownAround: Excellent advice. Thank you.

I have consumed 2500 calories today. My scale weight is about 176. This means I have gained a few pounds over the holiday. I can see this as extra fat. Time to exercise!

BTW It has been chilly outside. There are freeze warnings for Fri and Sat nights. I will see what the temp is during the daytime on both of those days. If not too bad, I will start up my running again.
