WEIGH IN: I weighed in at 276.8 pounds this morning. That’s 0.6 pounds more than yesterday. But still 6.1 pounds less than where I started. I think part of the culprit might be salt. I indulged in some lightly salted tortilla chips this week. And the spaghetti dinner at a friend’s house may have had salt and other ingredients my diet doesn’t allow. So this week I’m going to watch the salt!
EXERCISE: I got on my bike today for 15 minutes. I burned 245.7 kcal, biking for 4.3 miles, with a top speed of 24.5 mph, and an average speed of 16.1 mph. Felt good to ride today!
DIET: I had my black bean chili tonight over brown rice and topped with roasted spicy sweet potato chunks. I ate breakfast on diet as well. No time for lunch today. For my late night snack tonight I plan to return to fruit and almond butter, ’cause if it ain’t broke why fix it! And late night nachos definitely did me no favors.
ACCOUNTABILITY: I am still very much enjoying the Food for Thought book. Today’s reading was about how overeating is a progressive disease, and if I revert to how I was eating I will end up worse than before. Sobering thought indeed. Terrifying really. I must try better on my diet this week. My focus is to avoid salt!
