I am going to lose weight by

Here you can see the progress I made this month. Woohoo!! You can see by the other picture that now I am only slightly overweight. Another 5-6 lbs and I will be in healthy weight range again. My ultimate goal is to be 130 lb which is I think how much I weighed before college.

I’ve developed a chest infection that is complicated by recovering from dog allergy attacks and forest fire smoke from last week. Haven’t had enough air left over to walk – been driving to and from work. Am keeping on top of my calorie intake and meeting goals, but… No walking for another day or two. Le sigh. Cough.

aww hope you feel better soon… Take rest but do not give up!!! Just hang in there!

Not sure if anyone recommends this but I’ve transformed my body by playing tennis twice a week taking 5g CLA powder, animal pm, and animal cuts, plus a preworkout supplement. Outside of the tennis I didn’t work out or anything. Also I stayed away from alcohol.

Some of those supplements might be out of the comfort range for some but I definately recomend the CLA for everyone.

My cardiologist has explicitly asked me to stop using this stuff. He figures it may have actually made my ticker a bit worse because I used to use it a lot.

8700 steps today. Total intake of 1500 calories. Lungs are still a bit squishy, but improving. Plan to walk to work again tomorrow. Also, online tracking shows my new Samsung Gear Fit 2 will arrive tomorrow, so I’m looking forward to that.

You go @shutterbug!
Good for you!
I’m now inspired to get up off my behind and go for a walk. My problem is I just kept hoping that one morning I was going to wake up and Boom, all the excess weight would be left on the floor.
Now back to reality, I have to actually work on walking it off!
…and I’m ok with it.
Thanks!

12000 steps today. Didn’t hail like yesterday evening.

I averaged about 8k steps a day this month… that’s pretty good for me…

If you think about it, each step burns 1/70,000 of a lb!

3500 calories/lb of fat
1 mile=100 calories burned
1 mile=2000 steps

… or each step is (1 mile/2000 step)(100 calories burned/mile)(1 lb/3500 calories) lbs of fat!

So it really takes an extra 70,000 steps or 35 miles of walking to burn off a pound!!!

On the other hand, walking I think stimulates your resting metabolism too so even when you are not walking you
are burning extra calories also.
