Day 31: I had a great time camping with my family this past Labor Day weekend. I stuck to my diet all but one night when we all went to Sconyers Bar-B-Que in Augusta, GA. But I did exercise while camping. My mom and I walked on the trails in the state park and my little nephew, Eli, kept us pretty busy chasing him around. I did not lose any weight this week, but I also did not gain any weight either. So, I am happy with that. I know that there will be periods of time during my weight loss journey when I don’t lose any weight for a week and that is normal. So, I decided that I am ready for a small change in my diet. I have decided to decrease my caloric intake to about 1200 calories a day by decreasing my two snacks to around 150 calories for each snack. I am still going to aim for three 300 calorie meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. In addition, I have decided to incorporate more vegetables into my diet, which is going to be a hard thing for me since I only like a hand full of vegetables; but I am going to try. Other than that, I am going to kept everything else the same. I am going to “Just keep swimming, just keep swimming” (as I saw on someone else’s post today).
This week my goals are to:
1. Continue to exercise (At least 4 days out of the week).
2. Continue to watch what I eat and how much I eat (Three 300 calorie meals a day and two 150 calorie snacks for a total of 1200 calories a day).
3. Continue to drink water throughout the day (Drink at least 64 oz of water a day).
4. Continue to think positive thoughts (Continue to improve my determination and strength).
5. Eat more vegetables.
6. There was one more goal I wanted to add this week, but I can’t think of it now. Will add it later.
