I loved some scale today!! Took a lot but finally moving a little… If I am learning anything during this journey, it’s one thing. You can’t have everything McDonalds style! I am not talking about my FAVORITE Chicken McNuggets either (and I promise I haven’t had any of them since last year, those days are over). I am talking about the 30 second DRIVE-THRU. This journey is just that, a journey that will take time. No 30 second weight loss here people!!!

Weight – 288.0 (-0.4 from yesterday)
Calories 01/20 – 2112 (upon advice from trainer)
Exercise – Group Fitness (50 mins) Cal’s…

Hope to have a pretty good weekend, possible date out with Cheryl to a nice restaurant. No Golden Corral I promise, we were thinking something like O’Charley’s or Applebees. I believe both have a couples 2 meals for such and such special and a “healthy” menu.. =)

Ok, so yesterday was a long day, and I didn’t eat in the same way I have been lately (timing only).. I only consumed 1285 calories. A bird needs just a little below that!! So, I was startled and FRUSTRATED when I saw the weight factor:

Weight — 288.4 (THE SAME!!!)
Calorie Intake Yesterday — 1285
Exercise — Interval Cardio (25 mins) plus 20 mins Strength Cardio on Machines

Great workout, great on the calorie intake, but the same weight.. I guess there is only one thing to do. KEEP GOING!!!

Chugging right along here. Found out yesterday what it was like to be in starvation mode. Felt AWFUL! However, I still got my calorie count in. I know eating so much at once isn’t right either, but the trainer said the last thing you want to do is go into starvation mode. Before I ate last night, I weighed my nightly weigh at 287.0lbs!!!! Due to eating so late though, it was a different story this morning:

Weight – 288.4lbs
Exercise Today – Cardio & Cardio Strength (Machines)
Calories Yesterday – 1833 (1358 during dinner)

Guess my lesson learned is to EAT!!! EAT when I am supposed too!!!!

Seem to be stuck on something. Not exactly sure what. Woke up with a massive headache this morning, so workout will happen during lunch today. Here are statistics:

Weight – 288.6
Workout Yesterday: 30 mins interval Cardio workout (3mins pace, with 1 min hard), plus strength 2 sets of 12, hard core..

Eventually I will start seeing downward movement again!!
