"When you get close to the edge, it's easy to accidentally go over." We've been hearing that a lot a church. I found out it's true on calorie counting too. I thought I'd counted everything, so when I got home last night I ate only what would keep me from going over. Then Thursday morning I got up and was walking past the counter to go make my coffee and noticed my big can of mixed nuts was down. I had forgotten to count them . I thought I had ended the day at 1596 but after I added in the mixed nuts I had FORGOTTEN ABOUT, I went over the edge.

Oh, well. It's Wednesday. I was going to let myself go over on Wednesday's because it's such a tough day. And, today, in addition to it being freight day, it was the week the crew I'm on does church cleaning--which we do AFTER church on Wednesday nights. If I'd had my way, it would have been a Wednesday when I was going into work late on Thursday, but that's not my choice. To make it worse, Josh decided he wasn't needed to help out this time.

I walked outside this morning. I felt like it might actually be easier on me that doing the Leslie Sansome mile. I went to Hughes Rd, down to the bottom of the hill, back up and home again. That somewhat over a mile.

THREE WEEK PROGRESS REPORT

I was trying to see if twelve pounds made a visible difference. I could have stood up straight and pulled in my tummy and it would have really looked better but that is not the way the FIRST picture was and probably not the second, even though I was "posing" for a picture in it.

Mon (8-6) TOTAL CALORIES: 1360

I fasted from about 5PM yesterday until 5PM today.

I decided since I was low on calories yesterday and had NONE today, I'd treat myself to Popeye's chicken and fixin's for supper.

I had a breast and a leg with a biscuit, about 1/2 cup mashed potatoes with gravy, greens, and pintos and slaw. I got a jalepeno at home and some onion to eat with the beans.

It was a scrumptious meal. I think I'll top it off with bite of ice cream topped with chocolate. Just a little.


I found out I couldn't restrict my post link to a certain day at calorie-count. I thought I could bring up that one day, copy and paste the link for that day, and add it to my link to the title here and it would go to the day. But it just goes back to what ever you looked at last. And --now that I think about it-- it only goes to MY log because I am logged in and do not log out on MY computer. Anyone else would just get the Calorie-Count home page on their computer.

Oh, well.

I guess when I get time, I'll go back to copying and pasting my log below my entries.

I had a lot less calories yesterday than I intended to end up with because of finding out last night that we'll be fasting on Wednesday. I can't very well do Wednesdays because of freight day so I just didn't eat last night and began my fast.

I was pleasantly surprised to weigh in at 195 this morning!! That is TWELVE POUNDS down. This marks the last day of my third week. I was really kind of thinking I wasn't going to drop two pounds because the scales kept trying to go BACK UP on me. But that really mekes 2.5 because I never really did quite make it down ten in two weeks. I saw a 197 in a fleeting moment. It never came back. The closest I could get was 197.5.

But this morning I was 195. TWELVE POUNDS LIGHTER!!!!

I'm still walking my one mile in home walk with Leslie. I have more energy. My knees are not giving me nearly as much trouble. I can even get up and down more easily when I pray.

I was so hungry after church this morning I would have gone out to eat with anyone and blown my diet. No one was interested in going out.

All I could think of was getting something good to eat. Then I'd think of the calories. So on the way home I began thinking: If you went to Mama's buffet what would you have picked out to eat? I knew I would be picking the vegetables and the least fattening stuff. So I thought, "Why not just make yourself a good vegetable dinner with beans instead of some kind of high calorie meat?" What would you like?

I decided to go for a baked potato, baking it first in the microwave, cutting it into wedges, spraying with 0 calorie Parkay Spread Spray, sprinkled with garlic salt and broiled in the oven.

I made my slaw with cabbage, green pepper, celery, onion, carrot, and jalapeno pepper. I put one Tbsp of Hellman's light mayo and used sugar substitute and vinegar to finish my dressing.

So I had plenty to eat and did NOT blow my diet.

Later: I found out when I got back to church that Wednesday is fast day. I have been substituting Monday because I have such a hard day on Wednesday. I stop eating after lunch and fast 24 hours. (I ate last around five so that means my 24 hours this time will last until after work on Monday.) That nipped in the bud all my plans for how I was going to "spend" the rest of my daily calorie allotment. However, on the bright side, I figured that after work tomorrow I can go to Popeye's and get me some fried chicken. (I went to their Website and counted up all the calories for a normal meal I would bring home from their buffet and that one meal is over 1600 itself.)

I just wanted to keep on eating tonight.....

I did my walk with Leslie at about 6:45 this morning so I could get it in before I go to work. It is really making me feel more energetic.

I have become convinced-- after being two weeks on this 1600 calorie diet -- that it wouldn't much matter what diet you chose, IF YOU SIGNIFICANTLY CUT YOUR CALORIES, you'd lose a larger amount of weight the first two weeks than you will thereafter.

I remember when I did the South Beach Diet-- which I recommend, by the way-- I did the same thing. And when you read about others who have made up their minds to "do something", most of them have a "goodly" loss at the onset.

I'm thinking it is probably mostly fluid. There may be some real weight loss but it may not actually be any more than you will realize per week as you continue on with fewer calories.

I say that because I am already finding that I am now at a "standstill" on dropping off the weight. That means I am now in it for the long haul.

I walked --worked up another (minor) sweat-- with Leslie this morning. I'm happy at my progress there. When I started, I could not make it through the mile even doing it moderately. Now I'm able to keep pace with her and even do the arm movements. I do get out of breath and work up a sweat but I CAN CONTINUE. My legs are not so tired out that I cannot even get them to keep up. That's improvement.

I feel like getting that "ten" pounds off has helped me to be able to move without it exhausting me so quickly.

I really am feeling better. My stamina is increasing. I can walk better and faster. I suppose I wasn't just "getting old"; I was getting fat and out of shape.

I found out today that I don't have to copy and paste my food log into here to have it handy. I can just use the link field below my title and put the day's link to my log there and when I click TOTAL CALORIES, it goes to my log for the day. Great.

I have been reading that walking slow burns more calories per mile and saves wear and tear on the joints. It's hard to believe it burns more calories. Of course, I am sure it's not as hard on the joints.

I walked my mile with Leslie this morning. I'm actually getting better at that. When I started this routine, I couldn't even keep up with her for half a mile. Today I not only finished the mile, I was actually able to incorporate the arm movements and work up a (slight) sweat. I'm encouraged.

My goal is not so much a number on the scales as it is to get back in shape physically. To do that the weight will have to come down. But I will also have to do some kind of activity consistently to get me in shape.

I'm particularly concerned about my knees, so I really need to be doing leg strengthening REGULARLY.

Also, I wanted to start off with a bang and I was hoping I'd be down ten pounds in two weeks. I fell just a bit short of that. Now I'm going to just hang in there for "the long haul". I don't want to get tired of this so I am not going to work so hard to keep my calories in the same range as I have for the last two weeks.

I think (I hope) I can lose if I stay at 1600. I have been regularly UNDER that. Adding 200 more calories can enable me to eat more beef or chicken with my main meal.

Yesterday I walked a mile with Leslie Sansone.
I would like to do that every day.
I doubt I can do it on Wednesdays, but Wednesday is a very active day for me physically anyway what with hauling freight to the floor and throwing totes around.

I got on the scales this morning after I got dressed with jeans skirt and sneakers and weight 200.5

I am looking forward to the day I will be under 200 fully dressed.

At one point today I actually saw the number on the scale that said I was TEN pounds less than when I started two weeks ago. It was a fleeting moment, but it actually showed up. Repeated attempts to get it to show ended in failure. It was more like 9 1/2. Still, I am not disappointed.

I decided to eat more today. Not much more, but more. I wanted to keep my calories way down until I passed this two week mark so I could start off with a bang.

Now I hope to just lose a pound or two a week for the next eight weeks. Two a week and I would be down 16 more pounds. That would be about 25 altogether. Of course, one a week wouldn't get me to 25 but it would still be good.


Coffee, 2 cups

Breakfast: Post ...with Almonds and a banana (300)

Lunch: New York Strip Steak (about 6 oz) and half a baked potato with chopped onion on it.
I had a HARD time finding the calories for this steak. But it looks like steak can be pretty high in calories. This says 90 calories per ounce. 6 times 90 sounds like 540 to me!! That's a bunch.

I ate the other half of the potato later with a little margarine on it.

Since then I've been chewing celery sticks.

Oh, I forgot I ate about 10 or so mixed nuts this afternoon.

I was down 9 pounds this morning.

NINE POUNDS.... and it has not been two weeks yet until after tomorrow!

Yea.

I've averaged 1394 calories per day. I set 1600 as my limit and decided I'd not eat anything more than that. I had one "Wendie" day then read that the Wendie plan was only supposed to be used when you'd reached a plateau and wwere NOT losing even though you were doing everything right to lose.

I decided to count calories because when I decide to NOT eat some certain food it seems to be the very thing I want. However, I have found that checking labels and seeing how many calories are in certain foods makes me decide that with some foods,there are more calories than I am going to get good from the taste I long for.

I was down to 199.5 this morning! That is GREAT! I had to lose 7.5 pounds to get there. Of course that was JUST ME and NOTHING else. I even took my teeth out. (Just kidding. They don't come out.) But I took my watch off and took ALL the pins out of my hair.

Anyhow that is GREAT.

I don't have to go into work until two. I have not eaten yet and it is 12:35. I have concocted a meal to eat shortly which I don't know what to call.

I cooked celery, onion, green pepper, carrots, and mushrooms in one tablespoon of olive oil spread. I added some canned tomatoes and some of that sauce I have in the fridge that I can't think of the name of right now.(Allegro) And the left over ground turkey I cooked with taco seasoning. (I don't believe I'll be buying anymore ground turkey. I'm not too keen on the way it tastes. I have to find a way to mask the flavor.)

Veg/GT goulash
Sliced celery,
chopped onion
Green pepper
Carrots
Mushrooms
Canned tomatoes
Cooked Ground Turkey
(seasoned with taco seasoning)
Allegro Sauce

I don't know if I want to try to figure out the calories for all that but the main thing that I need to count will be the ground turkey. (I'd guess with no more meat than I got in my portions that it altogether was not more than 300 calories.)

I also mixed up a sugar free pudding and added about 1/2 cup of cooked apples to about a half cup. That shouldn't be too many calories. (65 for the pudding, perhaps 80 for the apples)

So I'll guess-timate that my total calories before work are about 500.

Lunch at work will be a sandwich. I'm still using that high calorie bread because my freezer is blocked off and I can't rummage for the lower calorie stuff that is lurking in its depths.

So Lunch will be another 390

That will get me up to close to 900 calories.

Snacks: apple (100) yogurt (110) cheese stick (60)

If when I get home, I'd content myself with celery sticks or carrots before I go to bed, I'll come out okay....

Later: I didn't eat the snacks. I didn't even get hungry at all. When I came home I ate a huge salad made with lettuce, carrots, cucumber, onion, and green pepper. (I got some really good green peppers from Sam's) and some grated cheese. I made a dressing of 1 Tbsp mayo (Light Hellman's) and jalepeno pickle juice and one pack sweetener.

I ate five snack crackers with my salad. They are 15 calories each.
My dessert? Three antacid tablets.

I'd guess my total calories would be a little less for the salad and snack crackers than it would have been for the string cheese, apple, and yogurt

THUR (7-26) TOTAL CALORIES: 1506

I was down another half pound this morning!! I didn't expect that because of the soup. It has quite a bit of sodium.

There's NOTHING more motivating when you are trying to lose weight than to lose it rapidly. I don't expect to be able to lose five pounds every week, but it sure is a nice way to start off with a bang.

I drank a lot yesterday. Freight day makes me VERY thirsty. I drank two 20 oz. bottles of water by 10:30 then the Green Tea. At lunch I had a diet drink and in the afternoon I drank another 20 oz. water.
