Goal Setting

I don’t get it.

I met with my cardiologist who enquired how my weight was going, to which I was delighted to say I’d been able to regain it post the triple bypass last year. This is where there seems to have been a misunderstanding in that he suggested I might want to lose some. I informed him that I was stock piling in anticipation of a growth spurt, where I declared that I was aspiring to 7 foot four so as to be a candidate for the NBL.

Then my orthopaedic surgeon broached the same subject for some reason. The inference, again being the possibility of losing some kilos. I said it was all relative and that on the moon I’d be just under 22 kilos! He responded that he wasn’t entertaining performing the hip replacement on the moon. Well, he needs to own that.

In settling on a date for the surgery, presumably with a weight reduction, I suggested April was good for me in that I had a calisthenics tournament in March (parallel bars). All things set – goal setting is paramount for the year!
