I had a bit of a head start on this — working out and watching what I eat fairly seriously a couple of weeks before this started on Blog to Fit. I started at 285.6 lbs a month ago and on the first weigh in I was at 280 lbs. Last week was a wash because of a bladder infection — and I am feeling much better this week!
This week, I’m down to 278.2 — not the progress that I would like, but moving it the right direction.
We walked 3.5 miles one day and went to the fitness center Monday and Tuesday

Good for you and with an infection. This is a good weigh in. I had nothing to blame, but remain even this week. I just can not make myself put my weight on the site…chicken…
Thanks.
When I decided to go with this Wednesday Weigh-In, I decided that I was going to “tell all” even though I know that I have family and others who read this. Somehow it seems to make the process easier, for me.
Keep at it Mike.
I’m with you on writing it down. It doesn’t allow me to hide from the truth. It’s there as a constant reminder.
3.5 miles is a nice distance!
Thanks for sticking with the Wednesday Weigh in – it’s appreciated.
I am making progress too but much slower than you are. My problem is my inability to walk long distances due to my hip problems.
Dave – The 3.5 miles is the length of the outer loop of a local walking/running/biking trail. Thirteen years ago, I would sometimes make it around twice for a seven mile run.
Ramana – Any progress is better than no progress. I’ve been a wimp sometimes and let minor health issues keep me from doing what I should be doing with my fitness. I don’t know how I would keep at it with more significant problems.
