Exactly where I was a week ago... ugh
Diet
I have been doing really well sticking to the 1200 calories a day. Its funny, some days I have to really figure it out to stay at the 1200 calories, then other days I have to force myself to eat something else after dinner because I haven't ate enough yet! I started to drink my coffee black over the weekend. I'm surprisingly really excited about it! It takes so much drama out of the morning. Just pour the coffee and move on with your life!
Exercise
I'm still just sticking with the treadmill. I have kept it up every other day and I have kept my mile at 18 minutes. I need to get some kind of weight routine added in. Whether its the resistance bands Gary has or maybe I can find something I like a little better. That is going to be my goal this week. To add in something else. I have noticed a big difference in the way I feel physically though. We were at the mall Saturday and I didn't realize it before, until now when its not happening, I would be borderline winded/out of breath after walking the mall. Saturday I didn't feel that way at all. So I'm definitely getting healthier! I notice the same kind of thing after coming up a flight of stairs.
Lifestyle
I'm not going to lie and say I'm not disappointed that I didn't lose any this week. It sucks. And I'm not making excuses, but I am taking a steroid right now for some fluid in my ears. I'm wondering if that is having an effect on things. Or maybe I'm building some muscle in place of the fat. I don't know. I'm going to keep pushing forward and HOPEFULLY see a result next week. If not I will have to re-evaluate what I'm doing and get things moving again.
