Pinch's Healthy Habbits Diary

I lost 1-2lbs!:)

Yes!

But I'm bummed out now...where do the calories go *sigh*. I'm very bummed out about what I ate today...not satisfied at all, but I reacher 1300 calories so I can't do anything about it. Ugghh..I'll probably break a little further into the evening..have two hard boiled eggs, and some cucumber. My goal is to stay under 1700, because that's how many calories I should be eating to be at the ideal weight for my height.

I was sick today too,so got no exercise


Anyways...


8:40pm: Weetabix cereal (High in fiber!) and milk-360 calories

2:10pm: Toast with meat- 150 calories
Between: 1/2 green pepper,a bunch of grape tomatoes
5:35: Sandwhich with leftover meat from last night,and one tsp of miracle whip (around 40 calories)- 440 calories (ugh)
+ some extra meat-320 calories
9:50pm2 hard boiled eggs (they really helped the starvation feeling!)-140 calories

approximately:1490

Also 4 bottles of water by the time I go to bed.


I worry that I'm either over estimating, or under estimating the meat though. The calorie book didn't have the kind of meat my mom bought,and it was the most lean she could buy..and I have no way of knowing how much I'm actually taking because I don't have a food scale or anything...so I'm at a loss.

ugh...I feel like I'm starving..I want to eat.
I had to make something for my sister earlier....I wanted to eat it.
My mom also brought my sister home a hamburger from mcdonalds for dinner..........I'm jealous........................
 
I know you're not suppose to eat late at night, but my aunt went from a size 22 to a size 8 eating a hard boiled egg everynight...so it's good.

My jealousy of my sister is gone. And I am feeling much more content..and I still made a calorie defecit. I am happy with today.
 
Hi Pinch. Looking at what you were eating when you started and how you're going now I would say you're doing a great job. It looks like you have made a lot of changes and yet are keeping some balance in your eating. You are losing weight, and you are still keeping at it. Good for you!!

Thank you =)
It's been a great deal of frustration to get this off the ground! But it's finally happening!
 
I've been thinking so much about food for the first few days, but then I woke up today and realized, I physically feel better. Since I've gotten my diet more under control, I've really not felt nearly as physically exhausted as I had when I was eating over 2300 a day. I feel pretty good!

I signed up with Fitday.com!! I LOVE it..it's absolutely amazing. I think it's going to help me a lot in this weight loss journey! I'm very very happy with it.

I'm still sick today, so I didn't manage to get in any exercise, but I'm still watching what I eat.


11am: Banana -109 calories
2:05pm: Chicken Sandwhich- 195 calories
4:00pm: 1 stick celery+chese (Two slices from a block of cheese done on the grater)-80 calories
6:30pm: 1 potato with one table spoon of sour cream, a bunch of ham, and a salad with one table spoon of dressing- 874 calories
7:15ish: Ice Cream (125 ml)-170 calories


4 cups of water over all

Total today: 1465


Yay.
Another good calorie day.I feel so full now. The ham was much lower calories then the beef we had, so I was able to eat lots of it,and be very happy. I haven't felt this full all week,it feels weird.
Not enough vegetables though..I need to learn to work them in better.

Yay! I had ice cream today,and still managed to stay within my calorie count. It felt so liberating. I felt like I was going to be confined for the rest of my life, but really, it's okay to have a treat once and awhile with someone else! Portion control,and healthy eating! I'm very happy...self control is going quite a long way.
 
great job. Thats the key to dieting. But dont consider yourself on a diet either...consider it a healthy lifestyle change. And yes, you are still allowed to treat yourself in portions still. Good luck. We'll all be there for support.
 
Well thankyou, i'm glad. Thats all people need sometimes is to know that someone else feels the same way you do, supports you 100%, and is never has anything else to say except for helping words.
 
I'll post my stuff later, but holy cow. I just did five minutes going up and down stairs of exercise (I'm still too sick to go out), and I just broke the biggest sweat,and I was breathing so hard...D: I don't even do that in 45 minutes of walking.
Wow!
 
8:45: Toast,with Margrine -125 calories
Somewhere in between: Milk -130 calories
2:30: (I think)pm: Banana- 109 calories
5:30: (Left overs) 1.5 potato, Ham,sour cream-669 calories
4 cups of water (so far)
7:50: had a little bit more ham
8:20: 2 Hardboiled eggs -140
Estimated Total Today: 1233 calories.

I'm not very hungry today...I'm a little concerned that I may have over estimated something a little bit and haven't met the 1200 calories quite...but..I can't force myself to eat when I'm not hungry.

Thats awesome! I'm in college as a culinary major, and i want to make the yummy recipes from my baking class at home.. i need a food scale though. I hope to get one for xmas. Thats awesome that you have one though. I'm jealous. haha.
 
My mom got it at Wal-mart for $10+tax I think. It was the last one (because it was cheapest probably ;) ) But I got to use it today,and it worked great! I'm very happy with it.
 
I'm down 4-5lbs since Saturday!!!!
I've been eating more then 1200 calories a day, and trying to make healthy decisions in eating,including portions sizes etc...I hope I'm losing it properly!!

7:15ish: Banana-110 calories

Total Today: 1346 calories

:) Another day of good counting.

Ummmm...Yah. Christmas is coming, I'm trying to get myself prepared for portioning and stuff ahead of time. I used my scale today,and was able to properly measure out the food I was going to eat.

I lost 4-5lbs since Saturday! so in one week! Ummm..I've been eating fairly healthy (over 1200 calories a day), so I'm hoping that it's okay that I lost that much.

A little bit of out doors today, but no real exercise. Hopefully I'll be feeling better tomorrow to get out and do something.

I was talking to my friend today about weight loss. I was telling her about my progess,and was talking to her about it,and she told me she wants to lose twenty to thirty pounds (She's 5'5, 170), so maybe I'll have a really close weight loss buddy for awhile? We'll see.
