I have always been big boned aka festively plump once I quit sports.
I got really heavy this last year. I decided I wanted to do some walking to avoid that pothole.
I think I've lost around 5 to 10 pounds. I don't have a scale, but I have a belt and I have to do down one. And when I went to try on my old work shirts, they fit.
I limited myself to one soda per day. I started eating less. And I walk.
And oddly, I started letting myself have an occasional sweet treat, which made me want soda less.
No magic solution.
I think it helped that I've developed a mad taste for Strawberry Lemonade.
I was curious if anyone local was interesting in doing a walking thing a couple nights a week.
