That kick in the rear worth of exercise seems to have recharged me, I feel good and like I am back on track from the mood from yesterday. I drank enough water and tried to keep my sodium low. I weighed myself and I am down the almost 1 lb that I was up and almost another full lb on top of that, so I do believe it was water weight being held in because of the lack of H2O and excess of sodium that was causing it. which does still put a damper on my loss for the week because usually by Tuesday I am down 3+ lbs from Fridays weigh in, but it does appear I am back on track, BUT this is just the first day after I think I figured out my problem, we shall see on Friday. onto the menu.

Grand total of 1125 calories for the day, which is very low but we had an extremely low calorie dinner added to my already low calorie day. I will try and get closer to the 1500 mark for today. I feel better and have rehydrated myself.

tony,
ReplyDeletedinner sounded yummy. were you full after your dinner? The reason I ask is, if you are short on calories, maybe eat 2 cups of veggies, or 3 more shrimp. I think as long as you are eating veggies( low carb kind) or pure protein to reach your calories, you'd be ok. Just a thought. OR you could also have a regular day then a lower day, zigzagging calories. I've been talking about that for a while. GREAT job locating the "problem"- keep on track. You'll see big numbers again- dont you worry!
Well, you may just have to have a bigger breakfast or a bigger lunch. Add a banana and peanut butter with that cereal, or some chips or popcorn with that sandwich at lunch! You might as well!! You have the calories to spend!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou've done great, though, and I'm glad to hear that you're getting that water in. I wish I could say the same about myself...
