Well today is Monday which means another weigh in day for me.. I woke up this morning hoping for big numbers, but it turns out that I only lost 4lbs this week. I didn't really expect to consistently loose 7lbs a week, but I was hoping for a little more. It's ok though, like I said before if I can loose on average 3-4lbs a week I will be down to about 220 by Rachael and Karl's wedding.
I have started to incorporate a few more carbs into my diet, this is helping me stay on track easier. I am eating about 1500 cals a day right now, which I will increase here in a bit. I am staying positive with my attitude and am finding that its not that hard to stay focused. Last weekend I went to Oregano's for my cheat meal. I had some salad and a little bit of pizza. I feel I did really well with resisting the food I had in front of me; however I did partake a little of an appetizer the Spencer and Annie bought. Let me tell you it was the most amazing thing ever, but very fattening. I only had a little bit, but I repented by not having any of the pizookie.
I am doing great with my exercise and feel myself building up my endurance every day. I had a good talk with Spencer (my brother in law) and got some ideas for burning calories in a different way. For example, tomorrow night I am going to push Evelynne and Mary around in the car for hopefully 30 min. I am also going to eventually get an old tractor tire and move that around the back yard. I am hoping by mixing things up a bit I can burn more calories...
Well I better jump on the treadmill, I will keep you posted on my progress. Thanks.
