I rode bike to work every day last week, spent lunch walking outside every day. I guess I had sort of hoped something miraculous would happen and I'd have lost weight, but I actually gained it (and I don't think it's muscle). Sucks being old and fat, because you just get older and fatter.
I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. The walking isn't anything new, and I had been working out every day after work anyway, which I no longer do (riding bike up that hill has got to be close to equivalent). Anyway, who has the time/energy for more than that? I'm not going to have another workout after getting home all sweaty and tired.
Alternately, I haven't weighed myself in a long time, workouts had been spotty, and eating had been not the best due to travel and stress and whatever else. It's entirely possible I gained weight, lost it, and ended up back where I was. Maybe if I keep up what I'm doing, my fat cells will shrink.
Eating is tough when it's your main source of comfort, and all the exercise makes me even hungrier. I guess I just need to be more careful. Nobody ever wants to do anything except go out to eat. It makes me fat and poor, and the healthy food I have at home that I meant to eat goes bad.
