Today I am doing well so far. The change that I am making is to ride my aerodyne in the morning as while I read or visit with friends. Instead of creamer I use whey protein powder in my coffee. This way I get the creaminess of the whey and sweetness of the vanilla. I don't feel guilty because I am also getting protein. The total calories are 90 per cup. I make one cup with the powder or split the half a scoop between them. Either way the total calories are about the same. I had a fried egg and 1/4 cup of pinto beans with two slices of Orowheat toast at 80 calories per slice. This bread also has extra goodies such as sunflower seeds and flax. To drink I make a large pitcher of power greens which is about 70 calories and I sip on this all day. In the evening only water or water with lemon. I am supposed to be eating 1820 calories in order to lose two pounds a week, but it is hard to get all of those calories in a day. I have decided at night I will become a rabbit and nibble on carrots and celery. I am also making kale chips from the garden and if I want a snack some yogurt and frozen grapes So far I have eaten around 500 calories and ridden my bike for 20 minutes. I am in a masters level program so riding my bike breaks up the monotony of studying. I am trying to work up to three 15 minute rides per day. And then I will begin to work on stamina. I love this site!
