272.8

Weight is creeping slightly down after holding for a few days at 274. I think the issue was that I had gone back to drinking Diet Coke at work instead of water. So yesterday I went back to water.

In addition I took a 40min or so walk along the beach before work today, so we will see if that helps. I would like to be at 269 by Friday.

274

Not sure how, but was down to 274 this morning

279

Not sure how but this morning I was down from 284 -> 279, I don't think this is real, just normal variation.

282.4

I have had trouble with my weight all my life, but now that I am 40 it is time to do something about it. Today I stepped on a scale and it read 282.4lbs. This did not really shock me but its still hard to see it as a definite number. The thing is that I suck at diets (almost everyone does) so I need to change how I eat and how I live. I am going to make a few changes at a time and see how they go.  Actually I have already started. In the last few weeks at work I have started to change how I eat lunches. Instead of going out for a falafel or something else I am now eating in more often. Specifically I am making fish with rice a lot for lunches.  My next set of changes will be to drinks (less soda, more water and tea) and breakfasts.  https://medium.com/what-i-learned-today/d5da698ee2ba
