Got most of today's steps in by meeting a friend for breakfast about 20 blocks from home and walking to and from the diner
Activity just as part of day to day living -- and not as part of planned "exercise" -- will be a crucial piece of the puzzle from me.

Progress. Under 200 by the end of March… Should be doable.

What's amusing about these numbers is that the "Lost" and "To Go" is based off of when I first downloaded the app at 235.2 on 04/26/2022. I hit a high (at least recorded) of 271 on 04/15/2024, and actually was at least 275 when I decided that enough was enough. I recall stepping on the scale and seeing 275'ish and figuring it was time. I wasn't counting calories in 2022 like I am now, but was a bit more active working at the psychiatric hospital. That was also around the same time I left to go back to my office job.
At 5'7, interestingly most charts still show a male "overweight" at 175. Memory serves that I was in decent military shape around there, so I'm not gonna lose much sleep on it. That was my goal then, and is the same now. If I can push a little further down I may, but I'll cross that bridge later.

It has been my direct observation that BMI seems to be a poor indicator of overall fitness. My 6 year old daughter that can run a 5k for fun, does Gymnastics/Swimming/Soccer/etc charts as "overweight". I deployed around 175-185 pounds and was just fine. Still, it's what we have, and the ballpark I'm using.
All that aside, it has probably been a decade or more since I've been under 200, and I've certainly run more in the last year than since I got out. Feels good. Bottom line, got to keep up with Freyja.

Light walk around my corner of the park. Snuck in with the pooch before the rain came.
