Food review Taco Bell Doritos Taco

I am usually not a big fan of Taco Bell but I really like salty foods. I had to try one Nacho Cheese Doritos Taco. At about 170 calories I would count it as a big snack or a small meal. If you like salty food you will enjoy this.. It has the extra punch of flavor from the Doritos Taco shell that gives it some kick. According to myfitnesspal ipad application it has 9g of protein. It is a nice treat that won't kill your diet. I would give it 4 out of 5 stars

Almost three months of fitbit

After three months with my fitbit I have lost about 12 pounds with the majority of it being fat loss.
I have walked over 1000 miles.   Here is proof:

It can be exhausting at times.   Definitely one thing that helps is to log all of the food I eat.  When I stop logging is when my weight loss plateaus.   Just the simple act of logging food seems to help me to eat less.  I am not sure why that works but it does.   Other things that help are to always walk while talking on the phone... seems silly but really adds on the points.  I try not to sit for too long.   I will
only watch HGTV while I am on the treadmill or elliptical.   I don't always have to be doing fast cardio but  I force myself to keep moving.

I have added in more biking lately.. I am hoping that will help keep Achilles tendon issues at bay.    I would like to lose about 7-8 more pounds.     It might take longer.. as the less you weigh the harder you have to work to lose weight.
