My calorie intake has been higher than my target this past week or so. I have been continuing with the half marathon training, so I have intentionally increased calories slightly around my training runs for "fuel", but I've been "hungry" more often than normal. Also, I have eaten out a few times and had a church dinner (with dessert). I don't like these extra calories only because I have trained my brain that I need to stay under my daily calorie goal of 2,000 calories. I need to continue to try to shift my focus and goals on my training more so than my weight loss. If I stick with the training, and eat SENSIBLY, the weight should come off...
Ahh...who am I kidding? I'm going to try to stick to my calorie goal as best as possible.
I am pleased to see a 2 pound loss this week, even with the delicious slice of Bob Evan's French Silk Pie I had at lunch Monday!
