I think I am finally starting to get into a kind of routine. It’s still rough, but I’m getting there.

When I last blogged, I was doing a pretty good job of walking on a regular basis, about 5.2 miles five or more times a week. But it wasn’t getting me anywhere as far as losing weight. Which kind of depressed me a little. And that led me to eat more. Which also didn’t help me to lose weight. But I think the problem was that I was walking too much at one time, which made me feel like not wanting to do anything afterwards, and then I’d get frustrated about that. Which also lead me to eat.

A lot of things lead me to eat, apparently.

But in April, I cut the walks back to just over 3 miles a day, five days a week, with one extra long walk a week — sometimes. Depending on if we got together for The Biggest Loser — with Vicki. And that seemed to help. Because between April 1st and today, I’ve lost 10 pounds, just a little over 1 pound a week, which is a rate I suppose I can live with.

Now, if I could just get into a blogging routine, I might be getting somewhere!


By the Numbers

Last Blogged Weight: 331 pounds
Current Weight: 322.8 pounds
Difference: 8.2 pounds

I really have lost 10 pounds, though! I went up a little in March, which I didn’t blog about (shame on me). And, obviously, I broke the 330 barrier — FINALLY — after bouncing between 330 and 340 for an entire year. That was no small victory, I gotta say.
