This week I think I made some progress watching my food intake more closely and increasing the duration of my walks. I had to work a bit of overtime, which cut into my exercise plans, but I managed to lose a couple of pounds nonetheless.

 Armand, although those work obligations kept me from doing a third session this week, I did get up to 30 minutes. I had no real problems with stiffness or soreness, other than a little pain in my knees. I’ve had problems with my knees since I was in junior high school, so it’s something I’m used to, and this is pretty minor. The uphill climb at the end of my walk seemed a little easier yesterday.

Sharon, thanks for the information on restaurant food. I’m not much of a cook, so making better choices eating out is going to make a big difference. As to when I got into this pattern of large lunches and no dinner, it seems like it was a gradual progression starting three or four years ago. I’ve always eaten pretty hefty lunches, and over time I just felt less and less hungry at dinner. When I do eat dinner, it’s usually along the same lines as lunch, so the high fat content is probably a contributing factor in the indigestion.

This week I tried to eat less at lunch, so on a few occasions I was a little more hungry in the early evening and had something lighter as you suggested. I didn’t have much trouble with the heartburn, but I was also working later and getting to bed later than usual.
