189.5 - Weigh-in Day

Yeah, you read that right: 189.5. I lost four pounds in a week. I know the rate will slow down, but this does show that I had been consuming far too many calories and not exercising enough (or at all to be honest.)

BREAKFAST
scrambled egg with kale
three veggie bacon slices
orange juice
tea with skim milk

LUNCH
Stupid me didn't pack a lunch today. I had a very busy and stressful morning at work and our cafeteria had macaroni and cheese today. But I RESISTED! Instead I went to another food place on campus and got veggie sushi and a container of carrot and celery sticks with dip. Bad me ate the dip but I think that was my food reward for not eating mac and cheese.

DINNER
Post work beer
scalloped carrot, white and sweet potatoes
seitan and sprouts in mushroom sauce (low fat milk in both)
Walked for a bit over half an hour

191.5

And hour's walk and a low calorie dinner kept me at the same weight. This is going to be a long, slow journey.

2 slices veggie bacon
1 slice toast with bitter
tea with soy milk

LUNCH
Boca burger on bread (1 slice) with Branston pickle
vegetable soup
plum
water

DINNER
Manhattans
"meat" loaf
roast corn with butter and garlic
steamed green beans
water

The weather was crap tonight so I didn't go out for a walk. Although I'm feeling guilty not (at 10 to 8) and might do 30 minutes before bed.

LUNCH
vegetable quesadilla and diet soda at a fast food place

sno-cone
some cheesey bread thing

DINNER

Not enough water today. The amusement park was great fun though AND I got in for free! Some guy gave his free passes to me when I was in line to buy a ticket. I only needed one (Spouse was using a friend's season pass) so we all got in with no charges for the day.
