Today's 10-minute walk is helping both of us remain fitness consistent. Hi, I'm Dave. Let's go for a walk.

And as I begin today's walk, I'm crossing the street, headed for the path through the woods that's

near where I live. Love walking back here. It's not a long path. It's not like

when I'm walking through here. I feel like I'm in the middle of nowhere surrounded by trees.

In fact, I'm at one end. You can hear the truck that just passed by on the road I crossed.

I'm at one end and I can look down and

see the other end. In fact, if I stay on this path for the entirety of this episode, I will

probably have to walk it like three times. So reach the end, turn around, come back, so it's

not like this really long path. But I do enjoy it because it's a little different from what I'm used to.

and then he left this comment.

I'm eager to share my transformation story. At the end of last

year, I weighed 342 pounds and was approaching my 59th birthday. I made a commitment to become an

active and healthy 60-year-old. On January 4th, 2024, I joined Weight Watchers and initiated a daily walking routine, progressively increasing the distance that I was walking every week.

Although challenging, I learned to push through the difficulties.

Utilizing the Weight Watchers app, I meticulously tracked my diet, leading to steady

weight loss. Now on day 308, and it's a little bit more than that, as you're hearing this,

now on day 308 of monitoring my weight and walking, I cover four to five miles every day,

waking up at 3.30 in the morning to get out and walk by 4 a.m.

I've even planned a week-long backpacking trip this spring to celebrate my 60th birthday

and anticipate reaching under 200 pounds. Last week,

I weighed in at 218. What a great story. Jeff, thank you for sharing the story. Thanks also for supporting the podcast. Some thoughts on Jeff's
