You're ahead of me in the "run/walk" category as I'm only a walker (although a race walker, but walker none the less.....................:). Just a Vilma noted, the scale isn't the only measuring tool. In fact, as long as you know you're doing well, I'm all in favor of giving the scale a rest every once in a while. What about you? <strong>Everyone is unique in this regard - for me, it is best for me to look at the scale every day and record every week. This does not work for everyone. I find myself sliding if I don't do this.</strong> Great work. You're ahead of me in the "run/walk" category as I'm only a walker (although a race walker, but walker none the less…………………:).

Everyone is unique in this regard – for me, it is best for me to look at the scale every day and record every week. This does not work for everyone. I find myself sliding if I don't do this.

I think you are doing a great job... just keep at it and take it one day at a time. Scale results will start showing soon. I'm sure your life is being enriched in other areas and don't forget the inches & pant'o'meter as well. Those count too. ~ Vilma :) <strong>Yep, the pants-o-meter is definitely something I track.</strong> Way to go John! I think you are doing a great job… just keep at it and take it one day at a time.

Yep, the pants-o-meter is definitely something I track.

I've been reading your blog for a couple of days, and have subscribed, mostly because you're in exactly the same boat I am! I've been dieting since 2/15, and so far have gone from 314 to 258. one thing that was a HUGE help for me was not only writing down everything I eat, and daily weigh-ins, but a weekly measuring. I do a tape measure around the bicep, chest, stomach, waist, thigh and calves. especially with strength training, and the increase in walking and biking, I found that there were 2 and 3 weeks at a time where the scale number never budged, but the measurements changed by a whole lot. it definitely helped me to stay on track, even when the scale said I was dead in the water. great blog! keep up the good work, brother! <strong>Thanks for stopping by! Always good to hear from other men (nothing against you ladies!) following the same journey.</strong> hi john!
