1,000,000

I decided I need a goal for 2021 not just a repeat of the 4,000,000 steps goal that I set in 2020. My chosen goal is to consume less than 1 million calories in 2021. This amounts to 2700 calories a day slightly less than the (surprisingly generous) allowance during WWII rationing. It is also 300-500 calories below my (predicted) calorific requirement which should mean that I lose between 30lb and 50lb during the year – a very tangible way of confirming I have kept my resolve. Whether and how I achieve my goal, will be the subject of continuing reports.
