Diet: Week 3 ish

A lot has changed for James and I during the last 3 weeks. We did weigh ourselves after 2 weeks was up; only to be shocked by the results. I had lost only 1 pound, down to 203; James actually gained 1 pound, up to 214. I was shocked and a little disheartened. We followed the eating plan to the tee. The only difference is that we became addicted to walking. And when I say addicted, I mean ADDICTED! We decided we had put on the weight through the build up of muscle mass. We now walk 2 times daily. We walk 2 miles in the morning and 1 1/2 miles in the afternoon. James wants to start walking a third time after dinner, that would be another 1 1/2 miles for us. I am hesitant, I think we should take it slower but he is raring to go. This new found love of walking was inspired by Uncle Gordon and Aunt Laura on one of their visits to Barstow, thanks so much for the inspiration. I have never seen James like this. All of a sudden he is a diet and exercise fanatic. I know I am loosing fat though, my clothes fit much better. Shorts I stopped wearing because I could not button them are now loose on me! Here we go......
