Weight Loss Log No. 1

This week I embarked on a journey to lose the 30 pounds or so that I have gained in the last five years. If there's anything I've learned as I grow older is that losing weight just became increasingly difficult after I turned 25.

In the past week, I've been on a calorie-counting craze and I actually lost 2lbs. I, however, gain the other pound after lunch. It's true, I do. How sad. I have so far lost 3 lbs. (before going to the gym, 4 lbs. after my swim) of the 10 that I gained from my three-month holiday in the islands. Thank goodness for the unavailability of Nagaraya cracker nuts... Franny gave me one to remember the days in the islands and it is (congratulations to me) still sitting on our kitchen table waiting for the day that I cannot contain my cravings anymore.

So I hope to be making regular entries in this series. The main purpose that I put this in my blog at all is for me to keep track of my progress. No entries, no progress. Oh, and I'm not ready to talk about quitting smoking yet. One mountain at a time.
