Happy Father's Day

I had a busy Sunday, so missed yesterday's post, sorry. Still working out the changes for this week. The first one will be tomorrow.

Weekly Progress

Current Weight: 223 lbs.
No Change Today


This week's progress had a good spike after the vacation, but it wasn't maintained.

Another Friday

Current Weight: 225 lbs.
No Change Today

Another Friday passes and I'm looking forward to Monday. I can feel a big change coming on, but I'm not sure what it will be...

Stall

Current Weight: 225 lbs.
No Change Today

The weight loss was pretty quick at first, 8 pounds in the first two weeks, but now it appears I've stalled. While drastic changes are not something I'm looking for, I believe my body may need a shift from the direction it's been heading for the past 10 years. For next week I'm going to start looking more at more vigorous ways to burn the calories I'm consuming.

Take 10,000 Steps

Current Weight: 224 lbs.
Change 9: Walk more.

Walking is a great way to burn calories with low impact on the body. There are even whole diets based around walking, like The Step Diet. Walk everywhere you can. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Park further out in the parking lot when you go shopping. Walk around the block on your breaks at work. Walk around the block after you arrive home from work.

If you cannot find enough opportunities to walk throughout the day, do it at home as part of an exercise routine. Take a 5 minute walk down the street and back each day. Eventually you'll want to be able to reach 10,000 steps in a day.
