losing 0.2 lb a week
02 July 2013
I haven't really made much effort of late.
Went through a bad bout of depression/anxiety (still not over it), and travelled some.
I'm so sick of being this weight. I don't really see it that much when I look in the mirror at myself, but then when I see a photo someone else has taken, or when I'm out some place and there's a new and different mirror, I see how big I've gotten.
The only other time I really notice is when shopping or trying on clothes I haven't worn in a while.
I think I'm going to try and commit to a 1/2 hour on the exercise bike every day and see where that gets me.
I know depression and lack of exercise/being overweight are tied together, but it's very difficult to link day-to-day stuff to long term goals.
The other week I exercised two days in a row and caught myself thinking: "I exercised twice! Why haven't I lost 40 lbs already??"

Well, I added a 1/4 cup of white grape juice (70 Cal) to my smoothie this morning, as it was too flavourless.
Also, it's 5pm and I'm kinda feeling really low-on-energy already.
1282 calories/day just doesn't seem like enough for me. =(
I used a different calculator that says that my basal metabolic rate is around 1500, so maybe that's what I should be aiming for.

I've made a meal plan for the week, with a approximately 1200 calories per day.
-
For breakfast:
smoothie made from a cup and a half of strawberries (73 Cal), a banana (105 Cal), a 1/2 cup of greek yogurt (80 Cal), 1 cup of tangerine green tea (0 Cal), 1/2 cup of quick oats (150 Cal), 1 tablespoon of flax seeds (37 Cal), and a 1/4 cup of almond slices (124 Cal). (
Total: 285 Cal
)
-
For lunch/snacks throughout the day:
Apple (110 Cal), 1 cup of baby carrots (70 Cal), 1/4 cup mixed salted nuts (247 Cal), jalapeno & cheese tortilla wrap (220 Cal) with 2 tablespoons of hummus (70 Cal).
Total: 717 Cal
)
-
For Dinner:
1 bell pepper (31 Cal) stuffed with 1/2 cup canned salmon (108 Cal), 1/2 of spinach (3 Cal), and 2 tablespoons of hummus (70 Cal). (
Total: 212 Cal
)
DAY'S TOTAL: 1214 Cal
I've never really done the whole calorie counting before, but I figure watching my food is an important part of losing weight.
I'm going to try and get on the exercise bike for 25 minutes a few times a week as well.
I'm currently on an antidepressant, and see my doctor once a month to get my prescription renewed, and noticing my consistent weight gain, he's had me weighed every time I go in. So although I will be weighing myself at home, I'll probably get the more accurate weight when I'm at the doctor's office.
