Weight Loss Update

Published by sunnflr at 10:06 am under Health Conditions Edit This

I wrote a post a few days ago about my lack of weight loss. I have been doing very well on my diet and exercise for the last few months and was seeing no results for the efforts. Well, I have finally lost a pound! It’s not much, but sure beats nothing.

Just goes to show that perseverance does pay off. I could have given up a long time ago. It was tempting to say to heck with it and just do what I wanted. This really isn’t a good option for me with my health problems, but people do it every day. I decided to tough it out though. Thank goodness I did!

Now, I just hope to lose a few pounds during the month of October. I don’t ask for much. Three to five pounds a month would make me happy. Some people lose that in one week. For those of us that aren’t that lucky, all we can do is hang in there. Our time will come!

Good luck to all of you that are trying to lose weight.

    Thanks, Nick. I will keep trying even though it’s frustrating with the weight coming off so slowly.

    Thank you. I had a few rough days, but am back on track now. I try to make myself believe that the weight loss is secondary to the health benefits. I convince myself most of the time!

    I believe walking is a wonderful exercise because almost anyone can do it. To burn fat, you need to work up in speed and distance I think. Start out slowly, and increase your pace as stamina builds. Then you can go longer distances. Speed walking is something you might want to check out after you’ve been walking a while.

    Also, it’s good to vary the surfaces you are walking on, and inclines. Walking on the beach will use different muscles and feel different than walking on pavement. Going uphill will burn more calories that flat surfaces.

    Hope this helped some!

    Aw, this was a really quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this too - taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something done.

    Can I really build solar panels at home?…

    The fact is now in 2010 you can build a solar panel under $200 with no extra massive cost. This is a good opportunity for us to go green….
