I'm down two pounds from Friday. Wednesday's weigh-in will confirm whether I'm back on course or just putzing around in the rough. What did I change? Well, just a couple of things.
First, I switched back to almonds from the new peanut butter for my in-between-meals snack. There is a definite calorie reduction there because I'm less apt to over-do it.
I'm also running the track/bleachers alone rather than with my wife now. It's a shame too, because I really enjoyed the time spent with her. Downside is that I was completely distracted by conversation and I realized that we were running half the number of laps that I usually ran. So Saturday I went solo and waddya know? I ran six laps instead of just three- the number we had been doing the last week or so. I'm running solo from now on and my wife is more than happy to sleep in.
Today was a gym day, which reminds me- I want to say “Awesome Job!” to John for lifting a million pounds during his workouts. It is remarkable how things add up; both in calorie consumption and weight lifting. My personal focus is on how one offsets the other.
(Day 177 / -98 lbs) I Was Off Course, of Course!

Hey, thanks Steve! Funny, I just got done munching a handful of Blue Diamond almonds myself.
Congrats on the loss!
It must be almond week, I started eating 5 to 6 mini meals this week and incorporated almonds in the afternoon, I think the fat in them really hits the satiety button for me.
congrats on the loss!
Thanks for the congrats!
Five to six mini meals per day has really worked for me. It too a little getting used to- but after about a week I was never hungry while my weight consistently dropped. Best of luck with it and please let us know how it works for you.
