Getting an early jump start this morning which my morning walking ritual. Hoping to hit 20,000+ steps by 6:00am. It's dry, no clouds, and 64 degrees. I CAN DO IT.

Good day, weather nice. Hard keeping to my calorie intake, but making up for it with tons of water. Looking forward to reset of day. Started around 2:50 this morning, walked a solid three hours, 45 minutes. 4oz bake salmon, and 1/2 avocado, protein drink, and 2 cups green tea for breakfast. Already have hit 24,046 steps at 8:16am. Shooting for 40,000+ today, mostly after work. Everyone stay safe, and YOU CAN DO IT!

losing 2.3 lb a week

Great weigh in today. Down 3.0lbs, and basically I thought I had just maintained. Looking forward to the next two weeks, and all the food is bought, meal menus planned, and stoked.
I had bought a Garmin Vivo fit (Nov. 2014), and starting reading everything humanly possible on this magical number of 10,000 steps. Well…..I did not like what I read, basically, I did not want to just be a 10,000 step walker. I set personal goals, and was realistic to my present life style. In a nutshell I am an extremely early riser, and go to bed extremely early. I am not kidding, I literally drank 2 pots of coffee and smoked 19 cigarettes before work, and one to the drive to work. It had been a routine, and programmed in me.
For whatever reason, it clicked, and I could do something with all that time. I started by getting to 10,000 steps, and then worked up to doing 30,000 plus steps a day. My best week was the week of Thanksgiving. I had a challenge from a co-worked who runs 50 mile, and 100 mile ultra runs, as that is something normal in everyday life. The challenge – he was running a 50 miler the Saturday before Thanksgiving, and 4 official Marathons, Thurs., Fri., Sat., and Sun. He challenges me if I could walk the same distance in the same week. A total of 154.8 miles in 7 days. I accepted. It felt so good to email him my results on Sunday evening for Mon-Sun – Total Steps: 401,891 Total Miles: 181.5. The thing that bummed me, had I paid attention to my monthly total steps, 971,686 I would have figured out a way to get to 1,000,000 steps in a month. Best day was Sunday after Thanksgiving: 67,505 steps, and 30.5 miles.
As for my diet prior to this, all I ate was meat, and seafood. I never, never, ate vegetables or fruit. Every six months the nutritionist at the cardiologist basically would just cringe. We have had numerous rebates. I would say are my blood work numbers good? She would say yes, but you eat all these pills and supplements. And your smoking, you are off the charts. Last visit, I had gotten a prescription, and finally decided to turn it in.
Today, smoke free 161 days, have never felt better. Have dropped allot of the supplements, and now eat veggies everyday thanks to Fatsecret. I use to keep Excel spreadsheets of all the nutritional labels of all the food I would eat…..Found Fatsecret and holy smoke, how more easier can it be. No more meat, just Seafood, some meatless products, and stick to me daily menus I make in advance.
My point to this epistle that I have written is for all the post I have read.
Each and every one of you on Fatsecret has your each personal goals and lifestyles. Don’t get discourage by reading other posts and seeing results, and a particular day or week you do not. Additionally, remember everyone has different goals, lifestyles, and live in different geographical area. In my case, I am very fortunate for the following achieving my goals: I rise early and start walking at 3:00am, and don’t stop until I reach 20,000. Then I walk to grocery store to buy my veggies for the day. I walk 45 minutes at lunch after I eat. I prepare all me daily meals for the next day the night before, and bring to work. I write my goals down and have them everywhere and I mean everywhere. Now that I have introduced fiber, my goals are posted in front and opposite of my throne. I drink at least 1.5 gallons of water a day. I show my Vivofit to co-workers, and that encourages me. I live in SE Texas, and have the weather to help me. I have at least 7.5 hours of sleep, in summer months, it is still daylight when I go to bed. I know my foods, and if I have an urge to cheat, I calculate in my head, how long it will take to walk it off. And most important, how the most things I miss are mom, and dad. I am divorced, and with a 13yrs., and 14yrs. old daughters, want to be with them until I am 100yrs.+. Trust me it is extremely hard, but I said I can do it. I DO, AND EACH AND EVERYONE ONE OF YOU CAN DO IT TOO!
