An interesting day on the Plan front: I spent most of the day fighting the urge to eat bagels…. I had one for breakfast and then spent the rest of the day fighting the urge to have more. This is the first time since I started the plan that I had such strong urges…
I was able to resist. I had a good day calorie-wise. 1400 so far. I will have a snack before I go up. I find that I am still having trouble getting enough calories…. Even though the weight loss has slowed down… I am still sitting at about 1800 calories a day and I am burning around 3500 so the weight loss will pick up again but I have eaten some very salty foods lately and I am sloshing when I walk from the retained water…..
Plans for my weekend activities are coming together. A 40+ mile ride on the North County Trail, we plan to do a round trip…. And on Sunday a hike locally with a good friend. I feel guilty taking so much time from my family. I love being with my family, doing things as a family… I need to do these rides and hikes. I have to ge in the mile sand the calorie burn…
Long term: it will be better for my family. Short term, I appreciate their understanding…
Our New Island Counter Top
I didn’t get in a walk tonight but I feel confident that I got in my calorie burn. I removed the 340-pound stone counter on the kitchen island by myself and installed the new butcher block counter by myself…. Pretty sure I got the burn in!!
So despite the temptations, and despite the lack of an evening walk, I am feeling good tonight.
Sorry for the short post…
Time for sleep
Peace
