Walked 5 miles on treadmill due to rainy weather. Total miles todate - 760. Nearing Bedford, IN. on route 50. Noted that I burned 893 calories today according to the machine based on speed and weight. That seems high. I conservatively estimate 100 calories per mile. Which would be 76,000 burned this year on my attempt to "walk America". 3,500 should equal a pound lost. Divided into 76,000 = 21.7 pounds lost in theory. I am about 19 pounds
less that the beginning of the "trip". But, there has been a transfer of some fat to muscle.
Still, walking (exercise) builds an appetite! So there is always the "food choice".
