Back on track

April 15, 2008

Whoohoo!  Down 6.2 pounds at todays weigh-in.  I worked out three times this week.  I’ll be honest…the first day sucked.  I was sore.   The key seems to be to just keep moving.  One you stop it’s harder to get going again.

Starting Weight: 385.4
This Week: 366.4
Difference: -6.2
Total: -19.0

Alright, I have my next weight-in tomorrow.  Last week I lost no pounds.  That’s right – goose egg.  A little disappointing…but I was traveling and eating out of a hotel room.  Before the diet I would have gained a couple pounds.  So, I’ll take it as a moral victory.

To help accellerate things I started working out again.  I think I should be back on track this week.

For lunch I wanted something other than a salad or sandwich.  I’d been living on them for about a week now.  I found a restraunt and ordered a lunch that was 570 cal with 9 grams of fat.   It included a salad, come cooked veggies and shrimp.  It had some rice, but, I skipped the rice.  I estimated about 3 grams of fiber because of all the veggies for a whopping 12 points.  Still better than a whopper with cheese, x-large fries and a large coke.  The combo meal would be about 30 points.

On the road weight-in

This week I’m traveling for work.  There was a weight watchers meeting a couple blocks from where I am for the day.  I joined a quick meeting and got weighted.  I lost another 1.2 pounds.  Not too shabby.

Watching what I eat while on the road can be difficult.  So far, I’ve avoided the burger and fry joints.  However, 3 taco bell tacos (fresco style) is only 9 points…so, I indulged for lunch.
