Still here!

 I'm still here!

PSA still undetectable on standard assay, follicular lymphoma still nice and quiet, prosthetic heart valve still working fine.

Working out 3 days a week, plus hiking and biking. 

I read Peter Attia's book, Outlive, a few months ago, and now I'm trying to reduce my visceral fat (the fat around your organs) which is especially dangerous. Waist circumference is tied to insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease, and early death. Even though my BMI is almost normal (25.5), my waist circumference is way too high. In case you're wondering, waist circumference is not the same as your pants waist size.
