Week 5

Today the (new) scale says 276.2 ! The old scale says 279.2... So I lost anywhere from 2-3 pounds this week. This makes me soo happy! No matter which scale I go by, either way, I am out of the 280s! Which means I have lost ten pounds so far!!! This gives me hope. One because yet again I have not eaten the best of foods. Two, because I hurt my hip and couldn't work out as hard as I wanted to the last two days. But most importantly because I am doing it and I know that I can continue doing it. I read an article the other day saying that no matter which diet you go by, it essentially only matters how many calories you intake and use. Calories are really the only thing that matters when loosing weight. So you could basically eat like crap, as long as you eat within your caloric limit for the day. Counting calories is easy for me when it's packaged items (duh). What I need to do is learn the calorie amounts of every day, non packaged, fresh foods. I try to limit the smount of food that I consume if I don't know how many calories it is. I hope that this week is just as productive, with Audric's party being in 2days!

  1. Have you tried myfitnesspal.com? I have been using it for 100days as of yesterday and I've lost 25lbs. It is really cool for counting calories. It has just about everything in the database. It makes it so easy to count calories on thing that don't have a label. If you do go on there and want to friend me my name on there is justien_c. Congratulations on doing such a great job! I also have a blog on myfitnesspal if you want to read it. It is my account of the journey through weight loss.
