I enjoyed my first day at 217 lbs since July 4th of this year. My lowest weight during the past year was 213.9 lbs on April 25th. My recent high over the past few months 226.9 lbs which by sheer coincidence was the actual day that I purchased my fitbit. Perhaps I am completely wrong (as I often am) and it was not coincidence at all. In the 79 days that I have been a 'fitbitter' I have dropped 10 pounds. With that success so apparent, there was no way that I was going to let a sloppy, rainy, cold, snowy, and icy day thwart my daily 10 mile walk. Before the day ended, I logged my 13th consecutive day of walking 10 miles outdoors. (I have no issues with triskaidekaphobia!)

I did have some morning errands to attend to, and the combination of rain/snow/sleet did not make a morning walk seem like an amazingly great idea. I waited until late afternoon. The precipitation had ended although it was cold outside. Conditions when I began my walk were less than ideal - although much better than conditions in the early morning.

Even whenI look at these photos... and I ask myself: What am I so happy about? I think I know. It is that my 10 mile walk in dark freezing temperatures is coming to a conclusion. I learned last evening that my leather gloves are simply not effective for combatting cold if one is out and about for two hours.
