Another Pound Bites the Dust

Sadly, that's only the fifth pound, and actually it had gone last week before I went on vacation, but after five days on vacation it took another five days to get back to where I was.

Obviously, I am able to keep from losing weight on very few calories. I figure that I need to use up an additional 3500 calories, or approximately 500 calories a day, to lose a pound a week. That's a lot of exercise.

I understand, though, that if exercise builds muscles then your muscled body uses more calories. We'll see. At my age, I'm not going to start out by running marathons, but let's see what I can do.
