Thanks Scott,

Reading your progress is really helping me to keep it going. We were both close to the same starting weight and seeing you get closer to your goal is keeping it real for me. I am trying to shoot for 190, but I might try 180.

Day #11
Dinner
1. Lentils and Sardines.
2. Spinach, lettuce and carrot blended with chia.

I had cravings earlier, but I think it was because I didn't eat legumes with my breakfast in the morning. I ended up cooking and eating a small salmon patty between lunch and dinner.

Bought my wife a big chocolate cake to celebrate her birthday. I won't be able to have a piece till saturday (cheat day). Oh well.

Except for yesterday, most of my daily walks with the dog have been two miles every day.
 
Day #12
Breakfast
1. Two eggs cooked.
2. Spinach, lettuce, carrot blended with water and chia.
Lunch
1. Salmon and Lentils
2. Spinach Brocolli.

Two mile walk with the dog
 
Cheat day and weigh in.
218.4 lbs

A difference of three pounds from last week. I followed the same pattern that I did the previous week, so I know it's reallly not so much water this time. I probably lost some lean muscle mass along withn the fat. Starting I will probably do a little bit of resistance exercise to go along with all the walking I do.

I noticed that my sleep pattern has become more regular this past week and I am sleeping better. I hope that continues.

Just two eggs to eat so far today. Looking forward to some fruit bread and some cake.

Day #14 cheat day
Ate lots of fruit, sandwiches and even got some fast food.
Had two pieces of chocolate cake -- all the sugar had me jittery for a while afterwards.
Looking forward to getting back to the regular diet.
 
Way to go you, I'm so impressed and motivated by your progress.
You are very strict with you eating.
For a man, it doesn't seem like you eat very many calories but you know what your body needs.

It's good that you're allowed a cheat day on this weight loss programme.

Keep doing well. You rule.

I did some calorie counting and even with the large portions I am eating, the total calorie count is well under 2500. Thanks for your feedback, you've given me something to think about and research.
