Hint on walking: If you can sing, then you're not walking fast enough. If you can't talk, then you're walking too fast. If you're walking fast enough that you can't sing, but slow enough to still hold a conversation, then that's perfect. I walked for months with a heart rate monitor and alarms, and it is amazing how well that simple rule talking/singing rule correlates with the optimum heart rate range for fitness/weight-loss walking.304 lbs this morning (up 1 lb) Blood sugar on the low side 70.
It takes and hour and thirty five minutes to walk to Super Walmart but luckily when the Mrs. calls to figure out where you are, you can invite her to breakfast and skip the walk home.
Stuck like a stone at 305 lbs. Walked 3 miles yesterday, just over 2 the day before and plan to go hoof it a bit today.
First time to check my sugar since the Doc reduced my medicine, blood sugar 98.

Congrats on the weight you have lost already. I think everyone hits the wall at some point, but you will get over it as long as you continue on your path. Just one word of caution, do not cut your calories too much, as your body will shut down and go into starvation mode. I am looking to drop 40 pounds or so myself.

Hope my 2 week plataue has ended as I went under 300 this morning. Not sure why considering what I ate last night (more than the 3 cups of popcorn I am allowed & fried chicken fingers)
Last nights supper was a break from diet due to convenience. Didn't really over eat though.
On another note. Did yo guys see the article on drinking green tea daily doubled weight loss in a recent study? I love tea and happen to have an unopened box of green tea bags. Already on my second pitcher of iced tea.
I weighed myself again and was up slightly so may still be in a plateau. Cloth type make a difference. time of day.
That's fantastic, congrats on breaking through that barrier, keep it going!
