I have erased the record but it was a lot more than 3000 steps. I will keep a closer eye and report back next week.

3000 steps a day they recommend.

Yes, that is one of the reasons I was looking forward to moving offices In that respect it has been even better than I expected

Thanks for you visit and your thoughts

My main problem for the blips upwards is difficult periods in my life. For example, over Christmas I ate out with family and friends most days so I wasn’t in control of the type of food I ate. I aim for a 0.5lb loss each week.

The increased walking should help keep me on track.

Walking is undoubtedly helpful.

I find it more helpful to plot the rate of change of weight, measuring it twice a week.
You should then have a straight line at e.g 1 lb/week or 1kg per week depending on your diet/exercise. That way you can take corrective action earlier.

I had lost around 1 stone until I put that bit back on over Christmas. I seem to have put on more since I have got older… I am looking forward to being able to get back into wardrobe of clothes, I must try harder

How much have you lost altogether in the 24 wks. Cherie?
Don’t you find we naturally lose weight as we age and dislike foods we used to like?
Overnight I had a loss of appetite about a year ago which has done wonders for me.
And in the last few wks I can feel my new clothes getting loose on me already.
