After week 1.
from 250 down to 247.4.
I am 5'10" so I have some work left to do.
I am glad I read this thread and found these online tools. I have entered everything I ate last week.
I do think myfitnesspal gives too much calorie credit for the riding and walking I do but that is fine.
I did have to make a trip to the grocery store, but it was to pick up some more cucumbers, tomatoes and onions for salads and for some fresh lowfat milk. My milk had hit the expiration date and then some.
Fresh veggies are going to be hard to do just going to grocery store once a month. I am going to change my strategy to once a week grocery store trips instead of monthly.
I was able to get by the pie and cake and ice cream sections...already had some ice cream in the freezer
. I was not able to get by the peanut candy section but I only bought two small cans, I was sort of craving it by the weekend. I also cooked some homemade spaghetti, a lot of carbs I know but I
needed it wanted it bad. Homemade spaghetti might be the perfect food, nothing makes me actually feel better after eating it than that stuff, not even chocolate ice cream...probably second most perfect food
.
I hope everyone was able to get off to a good start for the first week of the new year.
