Day 7- end of week 1
Yesterday was ok.
2 cups of coffee with 1/2 & 1/2 and Splenda. 49 oz of water. 1 cup 1% milk with Kashi Strawberry Fields cereal. Hamburger roll with BBQ pork. String beans. diet soda, 1 can. 10 Tater tots and 2 beer battered Gorton's fish filets. Steamed Green Giant mixed veggies (peppers, carrots, broccoli in olive oil). (Note: These were only 50 calories for 1/2 box and tasted great!) Fat free Dannon yogurt. I did break down and eat 1 bite sized Mounds bar before bed- 80 stupid calories! So that is 1319 calories for the day.
Exercise: Went to the Y, jog/walk on treadmill 49 mins, 3 miles. (Note: I was really tired and a little sore yesterday for some reason, so this was not easy.) Upper body weights/abs for 25 mins, 5 min stretch. Walked the dog last night 26 mins. Burned 2200 calories. 13,505 steps.
Took David to karate yesterday. He was there over 4 1/2 hrs. They had a sword bamboo cutting seminar. He did great.
So I am down to 151 lbs from 152.5 lbs. I am a little frustrated. Last week was TOM so I figured with water weight loss after that was over and how well I did this week (plus the first week back on a diet I always lose 3-4 lbs), I figured I would do better. I am going to have to take some Papaya enzyme for a few days and see if it helps as I seem to be a little irregular/backed up. That may be part of the reason I haven't lost more weight. Also, I forgot to take my vitamins last two days and have to get better about that. But one thing I saw this past week: Calories burned vs calories eaten, I was down 3076 calories for the week. So it makes sense that I lost 1.5 lbs when I look at it that way.
This week: keep pushing. Just keep exercising, going to the Y, journaling my calories on Fitday. I did great last week keeping track of calories and reducing them from what I was eating before. So this week I am going to try to keep my calories at 1400 for 7 days straight and see what happens. I would love to be 140 by the end of July.
