Tracking Tuesday and Weigh In Wednesday!
May 12th through May 19th, I averaged 1248 calories per day. This is right on track for my goals. I haven't been getting in as many vegetables as I would like so I'm going to focus on that with my next grocery list. I've been mostly satiated which is such a great feeling. I think working out helps with that, plus being mindful of my daily calorie budget. If I'm going to "waste" calories on a treat, it's best to wait until the end of the day when I'm sure I'll stay under my goal. If I have a treat or high calorie items too early in the day, I feel like I have to really cut down my dinner portion which can be difficult.
As for my weekly weigh in, no real change: 153.6 on 5/13 vs 153.2 on 5/20.
I weigh myself daily and try to evaluate the trends on Wednesdays. My weight tends to bounce around a 3 pound window from day to day. I've noticed my lowest weigh ins are the day after I have less sodium.
I'm still staying active and working out each day! I forgot how good it feels to keep my body moving. My sleep schedule is so much better than last month and I'm definitely less cranky and agitated. My job has been closed since March 16th. I spent the first 5 weeks drinking hard seltzer at night while I watched TV, daily naps, endless snacking and eating easy junk like hot pockets, frozen pizza and ramen noodles. I joked with family about putting on the quarantine 15 then reality punched me when I realized I actually DID put on 14 pounds in under 2 months. Big oof.
FatSecret has been so encouraging and helpful! I wish I'd found this community so much sooner.
