Training for San Gorgonio

Well it is wednesday, only three days before the Gorgonio hike. And I woke up feeling like I have the flu, so I did not join Elaine on our South San Clemente hike. I missed a good workout this a.m., and some needed conditioning. Our group is coming together quite nicely, I have great confidence in most of the hikers. We have some tremendously experienced trekkers, and I am grateful for them all.

One a more personal note, my eating has not been what I would like it to be. We celebrated my mothers birthday on Sunday, she wanted Mexican food. I have a weakness for carnitas, so I broke down and ate a whole plate of the stuff. Guacamole, sour cream, salsa, chips, hey I think I may have even eaten the whole enchilada ( but I didn't order one). We did recover somewhat though, we picked up halve a sugar free apple pie. Of course it wasn't very good, so I only had a small slice, sans ice cream. I still really struggle with portion control, it seams easier with healthier food choices. Something about salty or sweet foods, I just want to keep eating.
