Well Doug I've followed your posts for a long time...In many ways our
weights were very close...Now within 1.7 lbs of goal we remain similar...I just watched "Tao's life" and you must be one hell of a guy...I too have dogs and love them as much as any family member...Your stress at the end must have been devastating...My dog walking I believe has been one of my great motivators...My loss of weight has allowed me to walk farther as well as faster which also makes my guys happy...Don't get down over this temporary shift...Stay the course (which you do without ever giving in)...Good luck in your journey...GG "doug lerner" wrote in message ups.com...

(1) Last October my dog, Tao, passed away: http://lerner.net/blog/tao-1992-2006-movie/ Not only did I use to walk him multiple times each day (4 or 5 walks per day were not unusual) I never counted those walks as "exercise calories". They were always just part of my daily routine. Plus there was the incredible stress with dealing with the final few months of Tao's life. (2) Around the same time I started counting all walks - not just special "power walks" towards exercise calories. I guess the combination of both events is what is really causing the problem - not enough exercise plus counting too much of the exercise I do towards bonus calories. doug |

Like I said, humidity plus more physical work can add up to a few pounds, if
you are doing it the right way ignore the scale, Lee doug lerner wrote in message ups.com... Yes, my weight is definitely creeping up. 87.8 kg this morning! What am I doing wrong?

going back to the start is a great thing to try, Lee
doug lerner wrote in message oups.com... I think I can't sustain the diet forever without counting ANY exercise points. What I will try to do is count ONLY exercise points for "intentional exercise", like exercise power walks or cycling on an exercise machine. That would be back to what I was doing before changing the way I counted exercise at the end of last year. I don't know why I ever let my friend convince me that shopping was worth 3 calories a minute. doug Doug, I just don't count those exercise points. I just try to walk as much as I can every day five times a week. You are just going to have to start walking alone unless you have another dog. It is getting really warm here, 100 degrees tomorrow, but I walk from 6:45 until 7:30. When I have someone to walk with me I walk for an hour. I will try to do a few evening walks too. Audrey |

It's been a help having the other three cats, but Gray was part of my life for for a wonderful 14 years. I'll never forget him, but it is true, the grief will ease and you'll think of the good times you had with Tao. -- Cynthia 262/239.5/152 |
