SIMKATHY's Dec 2008 CalorieKing Blog
Stalled out - 172
Tuesday, December 23rd 2008
Need to feel hungry to lose weight! Not sure if exercising and eating back calories is a good thing.Newsflash: I just found out that one gram of bad carbs causes the body to store 2.7 grams of fluid. I think that is what happened yesterday when I ate two scones... bad bad carbs.
Today I exercised again. Felt stronger.
Wow. Keep going down.

170.... bounced to 169 and back. But at least I caught a glimpse of the 160s. Amazing. Fiber is helping. But now I have over-exercised maybe?It is so cold...brrrrrrr. A blizzard is coming.
171.0 Whoo hoo another record

Stayed close to calorie limit and hit 171.0 with bed clothes on. WOW. This is great. I am learning to avoid foods that shove my calorie limit too high, mostly fatty foods. Now my home scale seems to be off from the gym scale. But its all relative right?Did a weigh in and the CK program reminded me that I hit my intermediate goal weight. So set a new one! Hey can't I just bask in the glory for even an hour? Before getting back in the saddle?
Well I set a new intermediate weight - the one...
Deeply shocked to learn...

the real calories of food. Yikes. 1/2 cheese sandwich 350 calories, more than a McDonald's cheeseburger. I thought if I halved it, it would be a modest portion. No wonder a whole cheese sandwich was making me heavy. The mayonnaise is almost 1/3 of the calories.SO NO MORE MAYONNAISE... it's not worth it. Not a good choice. Look for a good mayonnaise substitute.
Occasionally I am happy to find a food is low in calories, such as mango salsa 20 cals for two tblsp. and all the vegetabl...
Wow! I'm liking these lower numbers

I saw 172.8 for the first time in several years. Whoo hoo. I love CalorieKing.It's a snow day in Seattle, but oddly enough there is no snow yet. It was promised and schools closed with the promise of a huge storm. It seems to have hit every BUT Seattle.
OUCH ! the gym scales gives me considerably higher numbers. 176.0 So what's the real score? Of course I was wearing more clothes but not 4 lbs of clothes.
No snow storm yet. Expect to go to work tomorrow.
