Weight: 225, down from a high in the 280s (early 2001), down from a trip start of 242 (February 3, 2002), still about 30 pounds overweight, but not obese
Cholesterol: "really good" according to the test I took the week before I left
Blood pressure: 130 over something, that is, kind of high-ish but far from worrisome at this point (yeah, the 25km hikes and weight loss should help this soon)
Resting pulse: 60, which is pretty strange; I feel like Yul Brynner in Westworld or something
Back pain: none since last November
Knee pain: none since January
Everything else: looking good, seems under control
Prognosis: improving, should be hunky dory by January 2003
Downside: will need to buy new clothing; XXL shirts now look ridiculous
