A week ago I announced my 1 month plan to drop
additional weight before vacation. I am
now 7 days in, and have been holding strong on my 1200 calories a day
diet. Although I didn’t weigh myself
until day 3, I have been disappointed with the extremely slow weight loss. Today I had a blip in the slow weight loss.
Throughout this summer I was never able to pull
under 298. It was a number that started
to haunt me in my dreams. Well this
morning when I stepped on the scales it gave me the number 295.6. I stepped on it three times to make sure I
wasn’t seeing things. So for the first
time the scales have given me significant movement since June. Also the first time I have seen 295 since my
son was born. Which means I am
officially the lightest my kids have ever seen me, which is kind of awesome if
you think about it. Here is a look at my
diet for the day (And I use the term diet simply as what I am eating today.)
Morning: Special K Protein Bar (180
Calories)
Mid
Morning Snack:
None
Lunch: 1 slice whole wheat bread, 2 oz starkest
tuna, hardboiled egg, diced pears and apples in light syrup (298 Calories)
Mid
Afternoon Snack:
Hardboiled egg, 1 low fat string cheese (128 Calories)
Dinner:
1 cup chili with cheese (344 Calories)
Evening
Snack:
¾ cup Honey Bunches of Oates, 1 cup skim milk,1 low fat string cheese (256
Calories)
Total for the day was 1206 calories. This may be my closest to 1200 yet. I even got in a workout last night, even if
it was a small one. I was getting hungry
and decided to push out an Ab Ripper 200 instead of eating a snack cake. I believe the right decision was made. Well that is all for today. Tomorrow I start the second week on my 1
month weigh down, I would love to drop another 5. Until then…
