   I'm suffering from almost three straight years of Daily Donald? I have to admit I've stopped watching the Donald J. Trumpf shitshow on TV and can hardly bear to read anymore OP-eds and articles about him and his gang. In short, I'm suffering from emotional and mental fatigue as regards him. Are you?

   The past 8 months I've turned my attention to making sure I do at least 4 to 5 or more walks a week. My average walk is now 4 miles and sometimes I'll walk as much as 7 miles. I jog as well for part of these walks. This activity level plus a limited calorie regimen has helped me lose 15 lbs. and I hope to keep it off in this way. What I'll do when winter arrives is another thing. It's not as simple though as it looks. As I've lost the weight it's taken more activity to get the same results and I've also had to gradually lower my caloric intake as well. I'm almost at my ideal BMI weight now and have been trying to get my weight to level off. So far this has had mixed results and I've been trying to figure out a formula for doing this. If anyone has suggestions please send them on.
