Can someone tell me if I’m going slow enough

Currently reading about the battle of Fredericksburg- when I can. Insomnia usually keeps me unfocused with eye discomfort so lucky to read a couple pages a night. I was a life long runner up until the insomnia got really bad a couple years ago but I still consider myself fit. Have always been trim but now bordering on skinny due to no appetite after days with little sleep. Wife makes me eat. Sorry to talk your ear off. Enjoy your weekend.

I lost 50 lbs last year but have managed to gain back about 20. Don’t have a big appetite during this taper but trying to eat enough to not lose the 20 I gained.
We had a vacation home in the Catskill Mountains of NY for 10 years and now for the past three years after retiring we live here full time. Being here keeps me in really good shape and I’ve always prided myself with being really fit also. So this past year has been really hard for me when it’s an effort just to go to my mailbox. I’m realizing now how damaging this has been to my self esteem. I’ve lost all confidence in myself and I don’t know if I’ll ever get it back. It really scares me.
We must keep reminding ourselves that all raging fires eventually run out of fuel and end. So shall this raging fire.
Good luck and talk later.
