I have been logging my daily intake of food. I have been honest about what I have been eating and how much. The calorie counter adds up how much I have consumed for the day and it tells you how many calories you have left for the day or how many you went over. I thought I had been doing very well. I have been doing well through the day with lowfat everything and cutting down in general. My calorie counter said I was under my daily allotment of calories. Then I noticed something key in this diet gig. To lose weight, I need to be consuming 1500 calories. I have been consuming around 2000. Better than usual, but disappointingly not helpful to my little attempt of weight loss.
I have adjusted the counter and my pride has been knocked down a notch or two. I will work harder to do what I can to make the numbers go down, but when you start breaking your food down into parts you realize just how much goes into your body.
Hopefully I will soon return to the gym. I have basically been a financial backer for the gym instead of a member. Just paying my dues each month and never stepping foot inside. My goal is to step back inside SOON.
