It began when I started driving to work; I lost 20-40 minutes per day of walking (not to mention an hour per day of reading!

It accelerated when my mother died; for a while there, I just didn’t care.

The result: I’ve mangaged to regain 35 of the 50 pounds I lost in 2002/2003. It’s time to get rid of them. I think I’ll get through the holidays first (although I’m going to try for some restraint), and then get serious come January.

(Update in 2025: :cries:. I’m 70lbs past where I started to lose weight in 2002, and I’m on Wegovy as a last-ditch, hail-mary pass.)
