10/28:
- total calories: 1831 - WORST DAY EVER. I got sent to this horrible seminar/schmooze event for work... it was awful... and they had catered in for lunch. The sandwiches and stuff weren't too horrible as far as I could tell for calories... but I had a white chocolate macadamia nut cookie and like this tiny itty bitty double fudge brownie thing. And that right there I estimated at easily being about 400 calories. Stupid catered food...
- no workout/walk
- 6 cigarettes
- 11:30pm bedtime
- $5 spent on beer w/ friends ($30 left for the week)
I'm seriously considering going to get a gym membership after work today. With the weather getting colder and the days getting shorter I know my motivation to get my cardio done at home is going to plummet - and shortly after I give up on cardio I know I'll give up my resistance training too. It's a really vicious cycle for me every Fall/Winter.
I'm so proud of all you other fitness bloggers out there and your amazing accomplishments over the last month! Hopefully I will catch up to you at some point here.. it makes me wonder sometimes if maybe I've got some kind of body chemistry imbalance going on that makes it harder to lose weight. Although I'm sure my inability to really follow any kind of diet plan to a "t" and my inconsistent workouts are more to blame than anything else.
Oh well.
Onward!!
Your stats for the last few days look really good! It looks like you're staying on track to me! :)
ReplyDeleteI generally feel like it's really hard for my body to lose weight, and it gains REALLY easily. This past summer I actually went to a nutritionist and had my thyroid, etc. checked to see if there was any problem. She said it was all normal. For some reason, I feel like it's been better this time. It might be because I have had several phases of pretty hardcore exercising since the summer of 2009, and maybe I've gained a little bit of muscle which is helping my metabolism? Not sure. But I know it's really frustrating to feel like you're working hard, but not seeing a lot of results. Just try to keep it up and know that if you stay pretty consistent, your body isn't going to have a choice but to start losing!
I agree with Emmers. You shouldn't be beating yourself up for having 1800 calories! You're doing really well, girl.
