My menu yesterday was good yesterday - I'm feeling much better today. Walked another 1.5 miles last night (on pavement ) - will try to do more today as the swelling in my knee and ankle has gone down.

Started watching my calorie per pound intake several weeks ago to try to drop 5 lbs or so by about March 15. Weight today is at 174 - so I've lost 3 of those 5 pounds. Calories per pound 1510 / 174 = 8.68 (aiming for around 8 to 9.5).
