Making great progress Matt. I'm guessing the walking would be getting much easier with all the weight loss to date?

Thanks, yes it is. When I was at my fattest if I walked for too long my back would start hurting.

This has been really enjoyable to read and very motivating!

I can't believe you try to walk 4 hours each day. That's so insane!

Ok I'm calling it Goal 4 is achieved! It was a long road but we made it! Now on to goal 5! I'm sticking with 25 lbs. this time so my goal is to get to 225 lbs. Again I need to stay away from the samples though I was good about food at work.Someone put a muffin my desk and when no one was looking I threw it away!

Between the walking, the improved food choices and muffin chucking you'll be well on your way to Goal 5.

I would have liked to walk more today but we had a huge rain storm.Also I was able to cut out a Pepsi from lunch, mainly b/c I ran out and did not want to go back out and buy one.However it worked out well since I think Pepsi does not pair well with salad.
 
I also want to point out that I forgot to delete the mini scone from yesterdays entry.I had a free sample like two days ago and forgot to delete it when I copied and pasted it, I can't figure out how to edit posts with this new system.
 
"I can't figure out how to edit posts with this new system."- Me either! Signatures seem to have disappeared too, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Like all changes some will be good, some not so good but we'll get used to it hopefully. The forum had seemed a little tired & maybe a bit clunky but I was used to it & liked it as it was. I must admit I'm going to like the "like" function, as it gives you a lazy way out.
I do want to celebrate you having one less Pepsi though Matt & the smileys just don't do it so.............
PARTY PARTY PARTY will just have to do! Well done!!
