JockoT's Journal, 18 August 2016

Didn't go for my morning walk. It is grey and overcast, and besides, I have a job interview at 09:00 and didn't want to get sweaty after my morning shower. I will get a good walk later this morning, when hopefully the weather will have brightened up a bit.
This afternoon I am going along to visit my brother, he lives about 9 miles along the coast, for a jam session. I don't mean making it or eating it. We are one time musicians who like to get together now and again for a bit of music. I like both kinds. Rock and Roll.
Here is a photograph of me, back in the day (1978), at a band rehearsal. Wish I had the figure and the hair now (I'd happily forgo the beard).


Yesterday's diet went well and with plenty steps and flights climbed my Trendweight chart shows my weight is actually started to fall once again.

Wish me luck for my day. I'll let you know how I get on.

I start work on Monday. Just a relief driver so I will pick and choose my hours. Looks like I will be quite busy up until Christmas though.

Relief driver. Buses??? Could you please explain Fit bit do you wear it all the time, including sleeping.

The reason I am asking is sleeping and resting is 2131 approx ( ? Your weight build age). You are doing a lot of walking. You should be showing easily over 3000 calls. Something is wrong with your recording exercise.

Try entering all your exercise without using the fit bit for a couple of days.

The driving job is multi drop deliveries. Delivering parts to local garages. With regards to calories burned, my BMR is 1545 per day. I don't use the Fitbit figures for anything. I am not interested in calculating or measuring my calories consumed. I just use the NHS recommended figures for some one of my sex, weight, height, age and activity level. They reckon that to lose weight I should be eating between 1733 and 2228 calories per day. FS reckons 1900 so that is the figure I am using at present. On my bad days it is nice if I am below the Fitbit figure but that is all I do with it.

The job sounds good, Jocko. If you're out and about a lot will probably help with not snacking too :)

Job is great. I did it before, and loved it, but the money was poor and as soon as a job at my skill set came along I moved on. Money still poor but at least it is only pocket money now.
