Well, here it is, a week of being careful about what I eat, when I eat, etc. My weigh-in was Tuesday and . . . I lost 7.2 lbs!!! I am down to 261.6, what a drop for only one week!! I was very surprised to have lost that much already. I know that I won't lose that much every week, but it was an encouraging start. I am starting to walk more and still watching what I eat. I am definitely not used to writing down everything I eat or drink, but it has shown me how easy it is to just grab something to nibble on whenever. The boys could probable use more snacks and such around the house for them to munch on, but while I am watching what I eat, they will too, at least somewhat. I am learning to check the "points" on everything I eat, it is surprising how those points can add up while not being so much food. They also show the difference between filling food for just a few points and food that has a lot of points (low fiber or high fat) that don't keep you feeling full for very long.
I am not saying this is for everyone, but it works for me. More next week. Thanks for your support.

Weigh to go Dave! Keep up on the exercises. Especially upper body. I though my arms got too thin while losing weight.
