Sue, yes I have current issues. Why would you get flamed? This is supposed to be a support thread.

I again gained weight on my recent cruise mostly because of sloth. Walking around the ship a few times just doesn't cut it, and it was too hot for me to make a serious attempt. Winter has set in here, and although I'm walking as much as I can, the weather interferes. Today I'll walk over to the bank, about a mile, and perhaps back if I feel like it.

Five miles seems a long way to me even at the best of times. Two miles with your dogs sounds good to me, keep up the good work.

For me, I think portion control is my biggest failing--I just plain eat too much. I have to learn not to have seconds. And not let myself get starving hungry. And not, I repeat NOT, beat up on myself!
