I started a medication last November to help the cluster headaches I was getting. The doctor warned me that it might make me gain weight. Between November and June, I put on 10 pounds. I made an effort in June/July to bring it down by taking a water aerobics class. I was also walking at least a mile. I managed to get 1 of the 10 pounds off. When school started, water aerobics class wasn't an option, so I kept up with walking. I also started one of those one month challenges which has me do exercises in increasing amounts.
Trying to adjust my diet, I started paying more attention to my calorie intake too. I noticed that regularly, I don't even get 1000 calories in on my diet. So I decided to work on that too. Unfortunately, it backfired. I managed to add 2.5 pounds on instead of losing. So very annoying and frustrating.
I still have a 5K to run at the end of the month and I'll be running the 10K at Disney next spring. So I guess I'll revise my goal and shoot to have it all gone by next spring.
