Progress? I hope so...

Well, I did over and above my five miles last night after work, seven to be precise! That totals nine miles on top of a working day! Mind you, I guess I need it with such a sedentary job! I'm finding myself volunteering for campus tours, just so I can climb a few flights of stairs! I did eight flights yesterday! More than eight times the usual amount.

It's quite sad to think that some days I only leave the office to pee or warm my lunch in the microwave! No wonder I've put on weight since my last job! Eight years in a busy supermarket certainly kept me on my toes!

I've tried to diet* plenty of times since starting in this job 21 months ago but seemed to have had no motivation each time, joining the gym, buying healthier foods, but it's never lasted as long as this time! I wonder if the motivation is increasing as I get into the "habit" of having smaller portions, or going out of my way to leave the car at home!

We'll see how it goes anyway! 1st measure on Sunday since the initial readings! I'll be happy if I can just lose 1 inch from my tum in this first fortnight!

Ooh, a little encouragement: -

*by "diet" I mean cut down on calories and fat, and increase exercise!
