Debbie Cousins's Journal, 25 October 2022

Off to a good start this morning. I've already walked 1/3 of a mile and it isn't even 7am yet (I got up at 4:45). Yesterday I walked a mile - 2,298 steps. Going to try to do the same (or better) today. Because I'm going to BJ's, my natural inclination would be to neglect walking at home since I'll get in some walking while I am out. But, I'm going to try to get the whole mile done before I go out, and let BJ's be bonus steps.

Weight was only down by 6/10 of a pound this morning, from 230.6 to 230.0. I was really expecting it to be more because I got a pretty good cleaning out yesterday. Oh well, there's still tomorrow for it to continue dropping.

Wanted to eat a lot yesterday, but I made low-calorie choices so my total calories was only 1,320 (well within this week's goal of 1,350 to 1,450/day). I had two mini cucumbers which were only 18 calories. I made some sugar-free Jell-O to be able to have a 10-calorie snack (for a cup), but then I remember that I had some Cool Whip in the freezer, so I added 2 Tbsp (25 more calories) on top, which made it really good. Still, only 35 calories for a nice snack. Also had twice the amount of melon I usually have (usually 70 calories for 200g; 140 calories to have two bowls - 400g).

I've got a very busy day today, and will be out of the house a lot, which makes it easier for me to not eat as much. The mornings are when I want most to eat. I've already had my slice of Dave's Killer Good Seed bread with 23g Land O' Lakes butter, one of the Jell-O's with Cool Whip, 200g of melon and one "break" of a KitKat bar. The DKB/butter was the usual 28 calories, but the snacks only added 158 calories to that. I will try to not have any other snacks today.

Glad to see more activity in the Challenge Forum for Daily Accountability 2022-#43! We ended up with 49 participants. I'm praying everyone will have a great week and that the challenge would be a blessing in helping to keep them on track toward accomplishing their goals.

I also pray the same for my non-challenge friends!
