Weight loss is slow and steady. I find that every time I drop some weight, my exercise increases around the same time ex: walk faster, walk longer(and increase in muscle mass I suspect). Then my weight goes back up. So, went to 178 lbs, started walking a lot more (but eating the same calorie wise) and then went to 180 lbs...repeat. It is annoying and I am tired of being in the 180s.
Anyway, going to try to at least do 3 miles a day of straight walking (can be broken up into two walks) (with days off as needed). Straight walking: On purpose, as in going for a walk vs doing regular things in the day that happen to equal 3 miles. I did 1 mile this morning as the rain prevented me from doing 2 miles. Hopefully it will clear up in the afternoon and I can do two miles.
Also, NEED to get back to ab work! Lower back is still bothering me but good stretches help. Strong abs will help that.
I will be very happy when my scale shows me at 175 lb with clothes.
