If you look at the chart on the right (assuming you’re on my site) you’ll see that I’ve not only dropped below 340 pounds but also I’ve dropped past my trend goal weight line. This means I’m back on track to my goal weight of 284 pounds by Halloween morning.
I swear to you that I’m eating enough food, the right food, and I’m not starving myself. From yesterday morning I lost two pounds. I ate two farm fresh eggs with toast for breakfast. Two #3′s with no mayo from Jimmy John’s for lunch and a chocolate chip cookie, and for dinner I had some whole wheat pasta with balsamic vinegar sauce, sliced cherry tomatoes, fresh cut basil, and fake crab meat. I had TWO plates of it.
Why am I so surprised? For the last two or three weekends I’ve been watching what I eat, but generally am more relaxed about what I’m actually eating. This also explains why there are periodic gaps in dates in my 5 day chart.
Weird how I drop two pounds in a day and don’t cheer, but rather get defensive over what I’m doing. I guess I just wanted to make sure for myself that I’m doing this healthy. I haven’t been going to the gym much (read: not at all) for a few weeks because most likely I’m lazy (read: busy doing non-workout stuff). Yet I still managed to lose 4.6 pounds over the last week due to watching what I eat really closely.
