If you are only going 1 slice per sandwich, you are probably correct in your estimation. I think we all assumed a regular sandwich. You are basically eating a whole sandwich in 2 meals ( 1/2 each time). Most everyday Whole Wheat sandwich style bread is anywhere from 80-100 calories per slice. Sliced Turkey is usually around 60-80 per serving. Mustard is just a few calories. You are probably pretty close at 150 per 1/2 sandwich.

yeah thats what i was thinking i guess i did fail to mention it was half a slice of bread
 
well when i got off work my friends who were going out of town invited my wife and i to go eat.....so we went i messed up a little cuz the only thing these people had half way near healthy was the quesadillas so i ordered that and only ate three pieces instead of the entire thing which is 8 pieces then i gave the rest away......so i am proud in a since but still i should have just not eaten anything
 
today so far i havent eaten anything i will eat 3 turkey sandwiches at lunch on wheat bread mustard only around 900 calories
 
ok i am going to weigh in today after work i am not expecting anything.....i screwed up didnt stay accountable and had a wedding shower yesterday where they had carrot cake my favorite...so blah blah BLAH another boring day of freaking excuses in DISCIPLES world

I swear i am loosing it....250 pounds down and here i am 21 pounds heavier than i was before my wedding....WHERE IS MY PASSION....where is my mother effin drive its like i dont even care any more?!?!?! I screw up because i choose too....thats whats rediculous i mean i know what my problem is yet i cant fix it....what the hell is wrong with me???? seriously i mean im just fat and lazy that how i feel....good God almighty man...i know this is a mind thing and nothing more so why cant i beat it?!?!?!?



anywho now thats off my chest....i have noticed that i am going through this thing with no goals in mind other than to just loose weight so i am gunna try something different i am gunna try to set up some short term goals to see if i can spark some entusiasm in this dead-end journey of mine

here is the plan...EAT RIGHT FOR ONE WEEK! AND WORK OUT!
simple right...yeah yeah yeah

ok my goal is to see myself loose 20 lbs....i dont think that is too horrible so 20lbs here i come the way i plan to reach this goal is by planning the next days meal, the previous day. not only that but there is a grocery store about a half mile from my appartment so the wife and i will be walking there in the afternoons even if its just for a bottle of water and then walk back so we plan on eating correctly this week denying all our foods that suck and getting some walkin in this entire week just too see the difference and then we will cross next weeks bridge when it gets here

Short-term goals are a great idea. It gives you a plan, and you can actually see the end and the results.

20lbs sounds like a good short term goal.

Planning your meals a day ahead is also a good idea. I think you are on solid ground.

One step at a time, man, one step at a time.
 
one week is much easier to stay on track that one month! Short term goals have always been easier to reach for me than trying to shoot for my final weight loss goal. you will make it bro!
 
i did very VERY good yesterday i am very proud of myself....i ate very good stuck to my planning and walked like i wanted too :D it does how ever suck carrying a gallon of milk and orange juice back a half mile lol my shoulders are killing me
 
A plan is the biggest step. Planning when and what you'll eat will keep you on track more than anything else.
 
yeah i am finding that out....and god i feel so fat with this extra 20 pounds on me...how was i ever alive 250 lbs ago i will never know, but my goal right now is to loose 20lbs i am working towards that and i would like to see a hug dent in that number next monday......i will be logging my journey right here
 
Be sure to log the good AND the bad.

Without logging the bad, it will be tougher to troubleshoot the problems as the arise.
 
Planning is key. Like the old saying goes "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail". This is true in how we eat. We got to the stage we are because we didn't plan out what we ate, we just ate.
