Weigh In

Posted by Ami-chan

I did my morning weigh-in, or should that be my Monday weigh-in, and I’m 246.6 pounds, but I’m not ready for Leptovox yet.

I’ve been logging my food for this past week on Spark People and that’s been a valuable tool. I can see when and where I’m doing things and have a good look at what’s going on. I didn’t do any exercise last week either, and that’s something that I need to start doing at least half of the week. So, that will help too. Plus there are several days that I already broke my one soda a day pledge.

We have no more Mountain Dew in the house now, and I’m NOT getting any more. I will just have to deal with it. Also I was good and the times we got pizza I only had one slice, but then yesterday my friend’s decided to order Pizza Hut’s new chocolate dipping sticks instead of cinna stix and I had several of those >_<;; bad me.

Anyway, I know what I’m doing wrong. I can fix it, and considering all that only putting on about half a pound is pretty darn good.

Diet Update

Well, I input my first daily meal chart into spark people this morning. Yesterday’s food, and I stayed within most of my limits. I was 65 calories over my daily limit, but I blame that on the fact that I also had two cans of Mountain Dew yesterday instead of the one I’m supposed to have. If I hadn’t had that second can I would have had plenty of “breathing room”.

Today my husband and I are going out for brunch. I had a small serving of cereal for breakfast and a glass of grape juice; and I’m going to make sure to not have soda today, especially as yesterday I only had two cups of water, when you’re supposed to try and have at least eight. We have great water in our house I have no excuse to not drink it, especially as I got reusable cups to have it in, travel cups, and also those little 0-5 calorie flavor sachets so it’s not just plain old boring water.

Anyway, really that’s not bad for my first day of sticking to things. 65 calories over for the day will be made up elsewhere during the week, but it just points out to me how much more work I have to do to keep my attitude in the right spot.
