  • Day 33

    I did not focus today on losing weight – just not a priority today. I need to change that tomorrow.

  • Day 32

    1percent change a day – thats what I need. I plan on biking this am – haven’t biked in two weeks. I would like to keep this up and can bike again on Monday. I will also walk my dog twice today totalling 5-5k of walking I had tofu last night for dinner- I made my own bbq sauce and…

  • Day 31

    I would love to say I am starting over again and now really getting focused – but this is the point of this website. I do this all the time and don’t pause to tweak, to commit and review as to what is not working and what is. I think I need to focus on daily habits and getting more…

  • Day 30

    I don’t want another month to go by and I am at the same weight – I need to change. While it is helpful writing this I feel like I have slid into the habit of writing and not doing. Thinking and not acting. I need to grab this now as my new job now that I am officially retired…

  • Day 29 – Check In Day

    weight 210.2 Sigh. I knew it would be the case as I have ‘fallen off the wagon’ so to speak. But – my first day of retirement is upon me. I just want to sleep and not focus on anything. Today I am giving myself a little break – tomorrow I will take the day to plan meals etc and…

  • Day 28

    Trying to get my head back in the game but I realize this is what happens – I get busy on other things and this focus goes by the wayside. The win I have to take during this first month is the routine of checking in – don’t miss a day – and the fact that I have laid the…

  • Day 27

    I think that when I weigh myself on Wednesday I will be back to the beginning. It is hard to live life and keep focused on this goal, especially when my life is social and/or busy. Tomorrow is my last full day in the office – am hoping I have laid the groundwork to still meet 52lbs in 52 weeks…

  • Day 26

    Seven days of writing but not engaged enough in the process. Back to it tomorrow. I plan on re-reading a few things this afternoon and get back on the bandwagon. My official retirement is in a week – I am ready to really focus on working out and eating better – maybe this was a false start but a start…

  • Day 25

    In the middle of the retirement weekend and got at least a 4k hike in today – doesn’t quite offset the shenanigans of last night but at least done I will completely get back on course tomorrow. In the meantime this steak is alive

  • Day 24

    A reminder to myself that I need to control the behaviour and not focus on the outcome. My behaviour hasn’t been ideal for weight loss so today I will control my breakfast and lunch – dinner is out tonight but I can control not eating dessert etc. and I can control getting some exercise in today. My brain is telling…
