Weight loss is a constant fat/muscle loss, there's no way around it. To reduce the amount of muscle you lose(by gaining it back) is to eat high protein and lift weights that push your limits at 6-8(muscle) reps versus 12-16(lean).

I walked to the high school stadium (1.2 miles) and did 5 sets of running up the bleechers and the entire walk home was…

Yes, I went out and got shoes 2 days ago but wasn't able to do any walking until yesterday.
