A few things:
I weighed myself today at Marcs (local grocery store) and went up a pound, from 167 to 168. (In two weeks) NOT happy about that.
I've been loosly tracking my food intake and figure I take in about 1300 calories. I started keeping an eye on things about a week before xmas and stopped during the holidays, and just started keeping an eye on it today.
So far I've intaken (is that a word? lol) 540 calories and all i've had was a 20 fl oz bottle of coke and 3 brownies. While keeping track of stuff I realized I don't eat much and when I do it's usually junk. Doesn't it work this way:
I should be taking in 1936 calories per day to maintain my weight. As I understand it, to lose about a lb a week you subtract 500 from that thus intaking roughly 1400 calories. If I am taking in only 1300 calories, why aren't I losing weight? From a food intake I should be losing weight. I am not very active, so I understand that plays role in it.
Today was a nice day about 65°F outside today so my fiance and i went to the park. We walked about a mile to and from the car and I had to stop twice. One for about 10 minutes and the other for 2 or 3. I wasn't happy about that either. Old people (70-75 yrs old) were walking better then me. My fiance who smokes and drinks is in better shape then me.
What else what else what else...
Oh I bought some whole grain white bread. Is that ok to eat? I don't eat sandwiches often and we have plain white bread in the freezor for like 6 months already. So I made crutons with olive oil and seasonings.
One more thing. I bought a bag of organic, boneless, skinless chicken breast and tenderloins. I was reading the label and 1 chicken breast was 110 calories while one tenderloin was 100 calories adn the tenderloin was half the size of the breast. What is up with that?
Alright that's all for the moment....
Later!
