after facetiously thinking about diet, it's time to actually do it.
my weight has been on the slow crawl in the wrong direction.
I weigh morning and night and mentally track them and they are clearly trending the wrong way.
Morning tends to be the low end and today clipped 260.
Time to get serious.

Got out my mini trampoline and put it right in front of the TV, so I have no excuse for not using it. It is very good exercise. Do not necessarily have to jump. Even standing on it and moving up and down or stepping with arms involved is enough to get the heart pumping. My doc wanted me to get in cardio at least three times a week. Since I have been lazy about going down to the gym, this should work at least some of the time.
Good for you, Deb.

You guys can lose weight on more calories than I am allowed to maintain my weight. I don't think that's fair! I need IV only in order to lose weight.
But I had a good session at the gym. About 40 minutes of the interval class. Some weight work with bursts of cardio activity, (not too intense) then a Zumba class with a different instructor, who was a little more aerobic than our usual instructor. Fun class.

Ok, I guess. During exercise they got my heart up to 150 beats per minute. The cardiologist noticed my heart skipped some beats at that elevated rate, but he thinks I'm fine and said I'm also ok for exercise. I guess a little arrythmia at elevated rates is not uncommon or dangerous, but what do I know.

Dropped another two. Been a long time since I've been under 190.

I'm very frustrated this morning. I was very cautious about my diet yesterday, worked out a lot and then had another slight gain this morning. Back to 181.

I rode 5 miles on the beach near the surf yesterday. It took me an hour as the sand was brutal to ride on. Deflated tires was the only way I could get anywhere. My heart rate never dropped below 140. I was soaked with perspiration. Great work out, then I had to inflate the tires and ride 10 miles to get home. Lost 1.5 Lbs. Rest day today.
