the good, the bad, and the ugly
the good, the bad, and the ugly. :) :mad: :devil:
good- i stayed *around* my cals for maintence today. a little over 1600. this is the first time ive been able to do this this week. of course, i would like to do 1200... but hey i will take 1600 over 2600. the bad - i gained 1.5 lbs. (but im hoping it was just my big dinner last night) the ugly- my fat cals were about 63 % of my cal intake! i had more fat grams than protien and carbs today!! :o i do have a little bit of a stomache ache... i have a WHOLE bag of macadamia nuts given as a gift. i had them for bfast and dinner. im guessing it was like a cup... maybe more. yikes. and i didnt do my run today. i did walk more than i usually do though... id guess 2 miles based on pace and time. thanks for reading!! okay. its friday tomorrow. i need 3 really good days this week to get the 2 lb loss i need for the challenge. (not even including the 1.5 gain - ill worry about that later) so the plan- im going groccery shopping and getting healthy low cal foods. i have been trying to limit and then i get hungry and i make HORRIBLE impulse choices. the new plan- keep myself on a snack shed and eliminate the last minute decisions. whew okay really done!!! thanks for reading. support/advice welcome! |

That's one reason I don't set mini-goals...not because I don't think I'll meet them, but there's no reason to get too hung up on the scale. Yeah, you had a bad day, but you'll have so many better ones. And if you lose all that weight in the next 3 months, or in the next 3 years, you'll still be healthier than you are now.
