I’ve never been one to weigh myself. I never look as heavy as I weigh and, just like staring at the clock when you want to leave work, sometimes I think weighing myself constantly is counterproductive.

For that reason, I’m actually unsure how much I weigh. At my last doctor’s appointment in October, I weighed-in at 195 lbs. That was up 40 pounds since my previous weigh-in in August of ‘05 when I tipped the scales at 150.

I don’t think I’ve gained much in the last few months. I’m going to guesstimate my current weight at 210.

I’m going to have to hit up my grandmother’s bathroom scale for a more accurate measure. Stay tuned…

Wow, five days have passed already.  I’m making baby steps but at least it’s something.

Tonight, I chose to talk a quick walk to the store with my boyfriend instead of driving.  It’s very small but something nonetheless.

Yesterday I got in a little walking when trying to view fireworks.  Of course, finding a close parking spot wasn’t an option so it was sort of like forced exercise.

I’ve also realized, walking with my boyfriend is GREAT exercise because he walks so fast!  He’s not tall and his legs aren’t very long but man can that boy fly.  It’s difficult keeping up with him.

Woo hoo, despite spending 12 hours chained to a desk, I still managed to get a little quick workout in! I’m on a freaking roll here!

In addition, I parked a mile away from my office and walked to work.

With tomorrow being the Fourth, I’m planning on going to Boston for fireworks which also means a lot of walking.

Pizza for dinner is not exactly how I planned to begin my weight loss mission. Although, I wonder if the two hours I spent walking around the mall counts as exercise?
