Thursday I weighed in at 215.2, Friday morning I was back up to 215.8, this morning I dropped down to 213.4. As I've said, I can't be concerned or excited about a daily weight up or down. I have to watch the longer trend. Any time my weight drops by more than a pound, I expect a bit of a rebound.
I am consciously trying to lose weight significantly faster than I have the last eighteen months. I am walking two to six miles and running more than a mile most days. I have reduced food portions by about a third and am trying to stop eating before feeling full. I just had a half cup of chili, a half cup of rice, and six ounces of orange juice, and my stomach is satisfied. I am eating more often, usually about four hours between meals or snacks. I have increased my water intake, but that's still nowhere near recommended amounts.
Exercise other than walking and running is still almost non-existent. That is the next thing that will make a difference in my overall health.
