My Week (kinda a post to myself)
Hey Guys,
Okay so I basically after I started calorie counting (aiming for 1200 a day) I went on vacation for 2 weeks. I recorded everything and ate my "maintenence" calories per day...about 1900-2000 per day...and I maintained!!! I can see now how having the mindset of "i already wrecked my day with lunch...so I should just enjoy the rest of the day aswell and eat whatever I want" is SOOOOOOOO bad!!! The days that I did eat LOTS for lunch I was really picky and choosey during the end of the day in order to still make my maintence calories and NOT go over! And it worked!!
It is about 5pm here right now and I have just arrived home. I am at about 1300 calories and have yet to have dinner and exercise. I am planning for about a 250 calorie dinner and snack so that would take me to 1550. Then I plan to exercise by bikeriding my loop (about 20 mins; ) and going for my walk tonight which means I will have burned 150 calories doing this. That means for the night I will be at 1400 calories.
My official weigh in day is Sunday morning so for the rest of the week I want to be between 1200-1400 calories per day...either by just eating that and not exercising...or by eating more and subtracting exercising that day.
I hope to have a loss by Sunday! Yay, I am excited to start loosing again and proud of myself for maintaining!
