Parked at the far end of the parking lot today at work. It's nearly a quarter mile from there to my desk.

Don't give up, brother. We're all pullin' for you.

Apparently one of my cats had jammed one of their soft toys under the scale so it wasn't reading consistently. This has been rectified. I still don't like what the scale is telling me.

Right now, a bit more concerned about surviving the hurricane than losing weight. If I make it through to Saturday, I'll be good. I'm working on building the habit of tracking what I eat - not as easy as it sounds.

I own a treadmill. Assuming we survive the visit of cousin Matthew (the hurricane), I'm going to get it out this weekend, dust it off, oil it, and try walking on it.

I'm planning to start on C25K. Not sure my knees and bad ankle can take it, but I'm going to try.

Nope, it's a Harry Potter reference.

Hoooooo boy. I've just discovered how bad I am at eyeballing food. Recommendations for food scale, please?

Meal planning: for the last 5 years, I've been eating lunch at the office cafeteria. For the record, there is literally no place else one can go for lunch and get back within the hour…

Thanks guys. Nice to be here. Feel free to poke me if you catch me not updating.

This old badger is looking for friends.

I chose to bring my lunch from home instead of eat the hot lunch at the office cafeteria.

May I play? I huffed and puffed my way around the courtyard at work for 15 minutes at lunch today.

This all started last Thursday at a long-overdue "annual" exam (first one in 7 or 8 years). My doc has suggested that I start out by doing portion control rather than restricting what I eat. So no, not following any "plan" except eating less. I am trying to make healthier choices about meals as well. Grilled chicken…
