The muscle aches haven't gone away and now I have a slight sore throat, I am starting to this I am starting to have the flu. The aches aren't as bad as it initially was though. Sore throat could just be because it was the morning.
I did have a guest that had a fever the week prior, so I am going to be a little more cautious to be healthier.
The weight loss is probably due more to this more than the little exercising I've been doing the last couple days. I also had an all-you-can eat meal the other day, so I really shouldn't be losing weight that fast.

Exercise (249) First jog
Yesterday, I jogged for the first time in a long while. I jogged for two minutes, 3 times. I have also sped up my walk from 2mph to 2.5mph to 3mph for about 30 minutes. When I have time, I also walked (slow, probably around 2mph) during lunch for about 20 minutes.
I am not sure the cause, but today I my upper leg feels like they are restless like I cannot sit still for a minute without feeling like getting up and walk it off except that it does not go away. I do not get these often. Maybe a handful of times a year.
But if I had to hazard a guess, I feel like I get it more often after I workout but lagging a day or two. The last time I had this problem was when I started doing kickboxing. I did find that putting my legs up (against a wall) did help in the past, although it does not seem directly impactful. So, I will have to start doing that again and see if that helps. It is hard to do once I have the problem though because the restlessness just builds.
Although one pound is still within a normal weight range, at least my weight stop going up. Hopefully, I will eventually get into some rhythm of this. It will be tough as I am also trying to clear out my place.

Exercise (250) Another restart
Sadly, I have reached my all-time heaviest weight to date at 250 pounds. I have been swinging between 235 and 240 for a long time since my last attempt, and lately it has just been downhill. But hopefully this was due to my busy life.
Lately
The main cause is that I have been busy with personal life activities mostly important guests visiting. I haven't slept in my room for about a month now. There was also a lot of cleaning prior and in between different groups of people.
Looking forward
As of this morning, I am at 248. I have not been exercising at all the last several months, except for the weekly volleyball (which I skipped last week for more important reasons). I do not think I will have much problems getting back to workout mode. I also need to start training to hike Grand Canyon (which I really hope I can get out of still :P).
I am hoping I can get as close to 200 as possible by end of next year. That is my goal. There will be a few obstacles like moving and getting a new job. From past experience, those will be tough to overcome workout-wise. But I will try to push through them this time around.
