To lose weight, one must ingest fewer calories or move more. Or do both, which is my current plan of attack for the “last 10 pounds” I keep losing over and over and over again.

Part of exercise is the time invested, and part is the intensity exerted. Again, I am working on improving both. 20 minutes each morning on the treadmill is a habit now (unless I have to get to work early, like today), but I’ve started adding inclines to sweat sooner and more profusely.

And I’m still trying to add another 40 minutes of movement to my evenings. It’s been hit and miss (especially since chopping all of these fresh fruits and veggies I now eat takes a ton of time too!), but I’m trying. Tonight I did a workout on wii Active, then hit the treadmill.
