  1. Well I am up.6 today. I am still getting the hang of the
    treadmill, and if I do not do the treadmill I walk during
    shopping for about 2 hours. I haven't actually figured it up
    but I think I am getting five out seven days with activity
    points. the small gain doesn't bother me as I think my body
    is still in the getting used to activity phase. I still do
    not enjoy the walking or the treadmill but I am really
    thinking I can stick with it so that is a NSV for me. I am
    still pleased with my overall progress. good luck to
    everyone this week, Lee

  2. Small gain and it probably is exercise induced. And your
    attitude is winning this week, if not the weight. Good work

  3. It's all a learning curve isn't it? All that exercise will
    be building muscle, and changing your metabolism, all of
    which takes a while to get used to. You've had a great few
    weeks, and I'm sure this is just a blip 🙂 Oh - and yes,
    treadmills are boring! *grin*

  4. That .6 could be caused by a host of things. Just accept it
    and move on. next week will be better.

    So glad to hear that you are continuing with the treadmill.

    Sorry about the gain, Lee!! I bet it is just due to water
    weight due to the increased exercise. Keep up the good work!

  7. Hi, Lee, Next week will be better. Last month I showed a
    gain of a pound this month, I lost 1.8. I hope the same
    happens with you.

    That's definitely a NSV!

    I don't enjoy the treadmill, either. Is the treadmill at
    your home? If so and you haven't already done so, put a TV
    where you can watch while you treadmill.

    After a lot of trial and error I have found that for me
    the best show to watch while on the treadmill is Jeopardy.
    It moves fast enough and taxes my brain enough that I'm
    not bored.

  9. thanks, I think a huge part of losing is attitude, Lee

  10. It is all about trying things and then adjusting if you do not get the
    results you want. patience is also a part of it I am not very good at. Yes

    I will exercise by walking while watching a tv show. I love

  17. Lee, I just want to second the idea of trial and error. Body
    chemistry is such a tricky thing. Scientific research can
    provide us general ideas about what works best for the
    general population, but only our own research with our own
    bodies will discover what works best for us.

    And we have to give the new methods time to be effective,
    which is where the patience comes in.

    Best, Diane

  18. Hi, Lee, and you helped with the flex points. I know that
    you use most of yours but I found that I do much better when
    I have some left over. This week I had 15 and the week
    before I had 13. I have not exercised as much as I usually
    do because I had a molar removed a week ago Tuesday and it
    infected. Walking from room to room in our small house was
    an effort. It was your post about flex points which helped
    me exam my food and made it easy to push out the food which
    I didn't really need. Take Care Catherine joined 5/20/98

  19. sorry about the tooth, I hate dentists like Linda does, that is on my "work
    on it list" after goal, and quitting smoking... I will say that even though
    I am eating most of my activity points each day I have dropped off a bit
    since starting the treading and I am watching that to see if I should make
    myself eat them, if I start losing more steadily, I won't have to eat them,
    but if I stall I will have to start again. Lee
