Switching Modes

   Having weighed myself on Friday, 10 Apr 2009,  and come in at 199.5 lbs, I have decided to change to a hopefully less arduous plan.

  I think that by limiting my intake I had slowed my metabolism quite a bit, which was ok because I was burning so many with lots of exercise.

  But I think what I will do now is to up the calories to something closer to my calculated daily rest energy, which is about 2000 calories.  But at the same time, I want to walk 5 to 10 miles per day to keep the weight loss going.
