I walked 2.1 miles today. Feeling real depressed because I was talking with a woman on a dating site who I really liked but suddenly her profile was deleted. I thought it was going so well.
One thing that's been beaten into my head repeatedly from dating sites is there aren't many people like me. I'm autistic and have a 134 IQ. I don't relate to people. It's extremely hard for me to find someone I like.

2.1 miles again.

Sorry Rizen. Right now dating is really hard in general because of COVID. Don’t give up.. You will know when you find someone. You’ll feel a connection. Your a great person. Good for you in keeping with your walking.

Sorry, Rizen, but I haven't had a date in 10 years now, so I can't offer any help there. After 10 years of trying, I quit the online dating sites. My experience with them was that the persona projected on the site was a "brand" that often didn't match the person I met all that well.

As for walking, I did it again last night. When it comes time for my daily walk, I have a choice of one of two walking routes in my neighborhood. One is flat, which means easier. The other is straight uphill, up one of the steepest hills in my town in Appalachia. I'm proud of myself because last night I got the 2nd walk in uphill. That extra effort keeps my weight well-maintained after my weight loss surgery.

Muji, glad you are able to keep up with your walking. It’s really great that you have kept your weight off.

Rizen, hope you are ok. Best wishes.

I haven't been doing well lately but I walked 3 miles today.

Rizen, I’m sorry you feel down. Just remember how strong you are, Walking 3 miles a day, taking care of your mom, and everything you do each day. You are a good person.

I gained a couple of pounds this week because work has been so intense, both the full time school job weekdays and the part time church job weekends with no time off. Yesterday after I got done teaching I had to lie down at 3:30pm and I got scared because fatigue made it hard to lift my head even after resting until 6pm on my couch. I still went on my nightly walk, though, and I've still beaten my weight loss surgeon's prediction. He said after surgery December 2018 I'd lose 100lbs and gain back 10lbs in my first post-op year, and instead I've lost 110lbs and gained back 9. I'm proud of that now that I'm 2 months away from 2 years post-op.

These walks help, Rizen. Let's keep them up.

I walked 2.1 miles. I'm not in a good place to walk the full 3 miles.

Walking 2.1 miles is better than walking none, Rizen. As for me, I walked my full 30 minutes last night.

I walked about 2 and a half miles today.

Good for both of you. Rizen be kind to yourself, things will get better. I hope you feel better soon.

Muji, stress can cause weight gain, drink lots of water. I’m glad you can still walk with you very busy schedule.

It was unseasonably warm for last night's walk, which made me really enjoy it. I took an extra walk again later, just because it was so nice out.

It's gotten cold here and is supposed to snow but that will be good for putting out all the fires we have in CO.
I walked home 2.1 miles.

It's rained here a lot, so I've been walking with my umbrella now, Rizen. I doubled up and did 2 thirty minute walks a day for the last 3 days and it really paid off. I lost those 2 lbs I'd gained last week. I'm so happy!
