Great Week!
Well I moved for over 150 calories 6 out of 7 days this week. The 150 was only one day. The other days were 300+ with yesterday being 507 calories burnt. I closed out the week having burned an extra 2,200+ calories for the week. Pretty darn good, I’m proud of myself. Oh and the weight over the holidays? I maintained. But then this week I was down to 178.5. Progress is there and that felt awesome.
My portions are back in control. It’s so all about the portions. I can eat just about anything as long as I keep the size down. I haven’t been doing my late night eating either. I guess it helps that I have to be in bed by 10 on most nights for early morning appointments. Tonight was the first night I’ve had cheese and crackers in weeks. I didn’t even enjoy them that much, I just needed a snack and that was about all there is.
My only worry about the weight loss is that I’m losing muscle. I can’t lift right now because I hurt my arm. It’s been two weeks since I’ve lifted and I know that I’ve lost muscle. Next week I will at least hit my legs and see what I can do for upper body. Maybe I can hit a few machines at least. So I don’t have a lot of options for the muscle loss, I will just keep up with the cardio and do what I can.
