Next week I pledge to log on time every day, eat less that 1,400 calories per day, swim at least 6 times and walk 3 to 6 miles per day. If this does not work for me I will go to 6 miles every day.

Last week I averaged 1,450 calories, walked 34.5 miles (almost 5 per day), and swam 5 miles. I think that I counted the calories inaccurately on 2 days because I delayed logging. I weighed 130.6, a gain of 1 pound. Next week I pledge to log on time every day, eat less that 1,400 calories per day, swim at least 6 times and walk 3 to 6 miles per day. If this does not work for me I will go to 6 miles every day.
