Damn, I'm sore...

Today's Weight - 297

It seems, according to the scales we bought over the weekend, that I've lost 15 pounds since I was at the doctor. That loss has been just through portion control and smarter choices with what I eat.

Instead of a double burger, I'll get a single. Instead of mashed potatoes, I'll have steamed vegetables. Instead of blue cheese dressing, honey mustard does just fine.

We also joined a gym and have been working out regularly the past two weeks. I can't say the changes have been immediate or dramatic, but I will say that I got up early Sunday morning and went right outside to do yard work. The same yard work that winded me a few weeks ago was now, while not "easier", less strenuous.

Progress is slow but steady, and I expect to maintain my 1 pound a week loss with little difficulty (as long as I keep going).
