My First Week


Aside from my McDonald’s moment last Monday, I had a great week.  I weighed in this morning at 449 pounds.  That is a loss of 9 pounds this week.  Not too shabby.

What I did right is changing my eating and started exercising. Unfortunately, my left leg really tightened up after Wednesday and I have not had a chance to work out since.   My leg does feel better this morning so I am going to do my best to get a good workout in this evening.

 My goals for this week are simple:
  • Keep my caloric intake between 2000-2200 a day
  • Exercise for 30 minutes 5 days
 The weekend was busy and I did not get everything I wanted to done.  did I get a food dehydrator.  I have wanted one for quite some time and I thought that it would be a fun way for my daughter to enjoy some healthy snack alternatives. So today I am going to pick up some fruits at lunch (cherries, apples and bananas) to see what we can do. I figure a handful of apple chips have to be a heck of a lot better than a handful of lays.

    Nine pounds! Good job. You're doing great and I love the exercise goal. I don't have a dehydrator so I don't know a whole lot about it. I do know when you make your own dried foods it is a lot better for you. Whole foods are best though.

    Couldn't believe the Saints choked in Seattle. I'm not a huge Pete Carol fan. (OK I toned that down a lot.) Tonight's game should be interesting. Got an opinion?

    Damn dude! What a fantastic start!

    Looking forward to seeing how the dehydrator works. I love dried fruit. My friends also made their own beef jerky that was fab.

    yep, you're off to a brilliant start. when injury kicks in, try not to let it damage your motivation. if you've hurt your leg, keep your arms moving with punches or something. good luck!
