Well after my problems on Sunday, today was a chance to make up for it and I did fairly well. We did eat out today, but I was pretty diligent in making healthy choices. In the past one bad day has spilled into a week and then a month and so on and so on. I think one of the most important changes for me is going to be ensuring that one mistake does not snowball into a huge setback. If I can control and manage these small slip ups then getting to my goal weight should not be a problem at all.
I used my time after the kids went to bed tonight to work on a project for the blog. I had purchased the web address http://screamingbeltloop.com awhile back and want to transition my blog to a web space that I have control over. I really like blogger, but I think I can have more flexibility with wordpress on my own web host. Last night I imported all the blog posts and comments from here over to The Screaming Belt Loop site and have already made a decent amount of progress on the transition. Any input either here, or there would be appreciated on the look and things that need to be worked on. I chose the name just because my poor belts seem to be victims of denial when I have gained weight back and just did not want to move back up a loop. So some of the loops look like they have been put on the rack and tortured. Anyway it seemed like a good idea at the time. Check it out and let me know what you think.
Statistics:
I walked 11,487 steps and 5.6 miles and burned 3,816 calories via my fitbit http://www.fitbit.com/user/22B
My heart monitor stat is missing! =/
Exercise:
Again today I did go to the gym and workout, but it was a brisk walk at an incline. I am looking forward to going back to kettlebells and double treading, but my body is just not there yet. The fitbit and treadmill claim I burned 700 calories. I miss my heart monitor.
Food:
Breakfast was eggs, toast and center cut bacon. For lunch my wife really wanted to take Katie to Cracker Barrel since she eats so well there. I had grilled chicken tenders with green beans and turnip greens, and also a small salad with less then a tablespoon of blue cheese. For dinner I had a flatout wrap with leftover chinese turkey stirfry and lettuce in it, as well as squash soup and two kashi cookies. I went a little heavy on the dessert section but still had less than 1600 calories today.
