Day 37 - Weigh In then Destination Zoo for Walking Off Pounds

Good Evening! Great day today - First of all, Weigh in and I lost 1.4 pounds. Lookin' good AND I got into a pair of slacks I hadn't been wearing for a couple of months! Still not the jeans that I'm shooting for but definitely a tiny milestone. Here's progress to date.

Day 1 - 235.8
Week 1 - 233.2
Week 2 - 226.8
Week 3 - 226.0
Week 4 - 225.4
Week 5 - 224.0 - Loss of 1.4 Pounds

Total loss to date - 11.8 Pounds

Still ahead of my 1.5 pound per week minimum goal! Seems like a long hard road, but every pound lost is an encouragement to continue moving forward.

So today was a gorgeous day! First day since last fall that we've had temperatures over 70 degrees and what a nice day for walking at the zoo. Pretty sure that I walked over a mile today. And sure enjoyed the weather.

This morning was a quick bowl of Raisin Bran Crunch, then I took along a bean and chicken burrito to eat at the zoo. One-half of the burrito was enough to satisfy me, so I'm definitely sure that I didn't overdo on the calories.

For those of you who are new to my blog, my calorie count for each day should remain between 1400 and 1,600 each day to maintain a loss of 1.5 pounds per week. It seems that this is working!

As it was a holiday for the schools today, the zoo was pretty crowded, so I didn't take any photos. Just too many people around.

Short post today - Things need to get done here. Will see you all again tomorrow!

Have a great night!
