I’m eager to begin my final weight loss journey.  I chose Nov 1 to start it because it’s a nice even day this year.  I like starting things on the firsts of the month, or on Sundays.  Today is both! For some reason, if I don’t start on a day that (to me) is a beginning day, I always feel out of sorts about it.  I think that’s why if I have a bad start to a day, the rest of my day is completely off track.

Anyway, back to the topic at hand:  I’ll do a weight loss post every Sunday, including my weight for the week, how many times I exercised for the week, etc.

This week: 208.2.  I’ve gained since I left CT and moved back to my parents.  My apartment complex does not have a fitness center, so for exercise I’ve just been taking my dog for long walks.  Those are gone until spring, unfortunately.  I’ve found some exercise videos online that I’m going to use until I make a decision on the gym situation. Other than that, I’ve been starting slow with drinking more water.  I’m up to about 2 1/2 water bottles per day.  I should be drinking more than that, I think, because I still feel thirsty at the end of the day.  I heard somewhere that you should be drinking something like half your weight in ounces of water per day.  That’s about twice what I’ve been drinking.  I’ll get there soon.
