:


Weigh in day. I had a great week. I was under or at my calorie target all of the last 7 days. I had lots of exersize time logged (way more than the recommended time from CK). I watched my sodium pretty well.
The only thing I did not do wonderfully with was water. I did not drink tons of water as I probably should have.
My weight today was back to my start weight - 157. WHERE DID THAT COME FROM??????????????????
I am starting to doubt Calorie Kings calculations of where I should be on my calorie intake.
I have decided to change my caloire intake. I am lowering it by 150 calories a day. I am now going to limit myself to 1300 calories per day. I am also only going to allow exersize caloires to count so much untill I get a HRM to acuratly measure the calories that I am burning. I am really wondering if that is where the issue lies. Am I eating back too many caloires> I have just been entering my exersize and going with whatever calories CK says that I burned. I have figured that calculated fairly accuratly since they have my weight. Who knows?? I do know that I am eating healthier. I am exersizing more diligently. I surely should not be gaining weight.
Ok, we are starting a new week now. New plan. Lets go. Positive thinking. I love me I am proud of the skillpower I am aquiring. I am proud of the self control I have been showing.I will loose this weight. It is obviously just going to be a slow process. I am just going to have to focus on the healhty living aspects and not the weight loss. That is a better plan. I will still watch calories. I am still trying to loose weight. But the main focus is going to be on my nutrition and exersize goals. Getting the fruits and veggies and fiber. Getting the cardio, weights, stretching for my body. Spending time with God for my soul. The weight loss will follow as a side effect. ( I am kidding myself a little bit here, loosing the weight is super important to me.) I just have to find a way to be happier with myself on a daily basis since it is seemingly going to be such a slow process for these last 20somthing pounds.
God, please help me to lean on you, to continue to place my trust in you and rely on you and not in myself. Please help me remember that I draw my strength from you. Thank you for all that you have given to me. Thank you for a healthy and strong body. Thank you for legs that can get me where I need to go and a body that is healthy enough to exersize. Help me to continue to have gratitude in my heart and not always dwell on the things I do not have, for you have abundantly blessed me. I would have nothing without You.
