Good morning all,
DG and I walked 4 miles yesterday (16 laps.) I have to admit that the laps are getting easier and easier to finish and it has become easy for us to miscalculate them. Yesterday, for the first time in a long long while, I started outpacing other walkers on the track. I felt a good surge of energy. I might return to jogging if walking becomes too ineffective. Let's hope my legs remember how! :P Walking, I feel, takes a lot more time to burn a sufficient amount of calories. Jogging on the other hand is murder on the knees.
On the not-so-hot front of weight loss, I woke up today to learn that I was back to 204 lbs. I consider this a minor setback if that. I think my momentum has begun to pick up.
DG and I have been reflecting that we haven't missed a single day of walking this week. I pray the weather maintains it's cooperation with our goals!
DG and Jambalaya, we haven't heard from you in quite a while. Please update us with any news!

Salty,
ReplyDeleteWonderful Job, really once you start feeling that walking is easier and you become faster than others, then wonderful you are on the right track and only need to pick up the pace.
As for the sit back, I think that it is not a sit back, it is only muscle weight, really think about it, you guys have been walking everyday, so muscles are forming and growing, so there you go.
Do not get discouraged, soon your metabolism will pick up, and you will start burning more calories.
