Walking (I'm fat and I admit it)

Dude is 5'11" and over 215. I think he'll be fine.

 

Hey you learn after a bit. 5' 6" and was 215 body has decided to fight back on its own now I'm down to 198 in 2 weeks lost most of it in 6 days. Your doing good with what your doing keep up the good work. I am doing the same thing because when you get that wakeup call in the ER! it's not fun and it isn't a joke. they tell me it will be weeks before I can hold a driving job if ever. again keep doin what your doin and hopefully all will work for you. and remember "small steps are better than no steps!"

 

thats what i did if at dock and i had time i went for a lot of walks , looking at differnt things i never seen before, i enjoyed my walks , like out west , i got too touch the little cliffs of utah or walk too edge of the cliff and look down about a 100 feet and feel the ocean spray still hit me in the face off the Ca coast, yup i love too walk and any wear , it would drive me nuts too stay cooped in the cab at the docks

 

That is way too boring. Once when I was in Al. I went for a walk while they were loading me and I found 100 dollar bill in a field ! made my day no one around way away from any kind of store or office. so I just put it in my pocket and kept walking.

 

good for you winkjr. I love my carbs and sweets and try hard to cut down but...

I pull a stepdeck and I did drop 30lbs when I started but now I'm steady at 200. I like to walk and will often walk a few miles to a good restaurant, makes me careful of what I order after walking that far. I tried a chin up when I started and couldn't get my feet off the ground. Now I am getting close to doing 10 without cheating

Keep working on it. Its amazing how much better you feel.

 

Still at it wink?
I lose motivation fast, walking the same route daily gets old. Trying some new routes to keep it fresh.
Hope your also seeing progress.
I couldn't do PT like in the Marines without the DI standing there screaming

 

I need to lose about 50-70 pounds within a year. I started walking about 2 weeks ago, 2 miles a day. 30 minutes of fast walk equals to 1 mile. So, I try to walk 30 min.in the am hours and 30 min. in the evening. It does not matter how big the truck stop is or any rest area. I just walk until 30 minutes are up, 5-10 minutes stretching and good to go.
I also reduced my calorie intake, from 3000 to 1400-1500. It's tough, but I feel i have to have drastic measures to reverse my weight gain.
