Two a days
Wt. 249.2
am: 60 min walk, 3 miles
pm: 40 min bike ride, @5 miles
I ate a banana, a peach, and a plum on the way into town. I had a nice 60 min walk there. Lunch was a nice assortment of fruit. When I got home, I went for a nice, hot bike ride. I havn't found my odometer yet, so I had to estimate my mileage. But on my country rodes, that isn't too dificult, with all the roads being a mile or a half mile apart.
Dinner was a broccoli, red onion, red pepper, cauliflower, and cherry tomato salad, with homemade raw italian dressing. It was a very nice change of pace, and really hit the spot.... thanks Mrs.
My first day of excercising twice a day went well. Hopefully I will feel that way tomorrow morning when I wake up.

Day off
Wt. 248.8
no walk
Today I got the weigh in I was expecting Sunday or Monday. I did't walk today, and it felt good to be lazy in the morning. The Mrs. made me a great smoothie for breakfast, as well as she cut up some veggies for lunch. I also had a nice bag of cherries for lunch. Dinner was a whole honeydew. I was going to stop at half of it, but it was so good, I just kept right on going.

2 week weigh in, 21.8 lbs
wt. 251.0
walked 60 min, 3 miles
I was disappointed in todays two week weigh in. The two week weigh in wasn't bad, but the last week was actually less than 3 pounds. I know that after 18 ponds the first week, I was going to level off, but the last 3 days have not been good to me on the scale. The walking has been going good. I will not walk tomorrow, as I have been 4 days in a row now.
Diet wise, today was good. I had a smoothie for breakfast, and a plum and 12 raw almonds for lunch. Dinner was 1/2 of a very mediocre cantelope. I am glad this miserable 3 day weekend is over. I am very tired of watching everyone else chowing down on great meals, and me not joining in.

Back on track
wt. 252.6
walked 60 min, 3.0 miles
I was very surprised by todays weigh in. I gained a half pound since yesterday, and 2 1/2 pounds in 3 days. Maybe there was a bunch of salt in yesterday's dill pickle. Whatever the case, I need to get back to totally raw. I am not worried about the short term fluctuations. I know I am on the right path, and must just keep plugging along.
I had a very good day food wise. I had a small honeydew before my morning walk. Lunch was a banana, plum and small apple. I sat eating nothing at a lake grill out, and later sat through a "dessert" birthday party. Dinner was a small container of red resberries. For a snack right before bed, I had another small honeydew.

first 3 mile walk
wt 252.2
walked 65 min, 3.2 miles
The Mrs. and I had a lazy morning, at least it was for me. She made me another great smoothie, so hers may not of been so lazy. Then we drove 6 miles to a nearby trail, and walked. It was my first time to go 3 miles, and it wasn't at all hard. In fact, I am planning on doing it again tomorrow.
As for the weigh in, I wasn't surprised. I figured the salt would make me retain fluids. After our morning walk, we mowed the yard. She rode and I pushed. So that was a bit of a workout itself, especially with the heat and humidity. After that we showered, and left to visit my mom in the rehab. Then off to my nephews baseball game, then a neices birthday party, and then the grocery. We finally got home about 9:30. It was 95 degrees and very humid. we were outside most of the day, and it made for a long one.
My food for the day was my smoothie for breakfast, a big spicy dill pickle for lunch, and a few rasberries, cherries and a plum for supper, while driving home from the grocery. It had to be less than a 1400 calorie day. Once again I strayed, as my pickle wasn't raw. The label gave it twenty calories.

OOPS ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
wt. 250.2
walked 40 min, 2 miles
I had another great smoothie to start my day. Then I headed to town to walk, and it was misting, so I walked the hallways and open spaces at the office building again. I left work for an afternoon massage (started the holiday weekend early). We were going to go to a nephews championship baseball game, but it was cancelled. So we headed to a big town an hour away, where I got some new shoes to walk in. Then we met a different nephew and his girlfriend for dinner. We were going for sushi, and I was really excited. Of course, being raw, I was going to have sashimi. We got there, and found out they didn't have sashimi. So, I took one for the team, and had an unraw meal. And it was pretty good! I had a jalepeno/cream cheese apetizer of some sort. Then I had a spicy tuna roll, and a philadelphia roll. Both were very good. I am sure that the sodium in the soy sauce will cause me to retain water, and kill tomorrow's weigh in. Oh well. In the big picture, in wasn't too many calories, and life goes on. I just need to make sure I don't let it become a bad weekend. It was a fun evening.
