back in keep things posted mode.

[technoir]

So I am back in post my daily totals mode as I am reducing the count down to 2000 calories. I have to say yesterday was weird as i was really tired at work. I did do about 40 minutes of cardio and 10 minutes of strength training and crunches. Today it was 50 minutes of cardio and 10 minutes of strength and crunches. My real weakness is still fast and easy food. I want to eat chick-fil-a and subway and what have you. I am trying to be good but the temptation is there. At least I feel less desire to go to CiCi's and annihilate the pizza buffet so progress there. No more buffets at all from here on out actually. Go places where I can order something and move on if i am eating out.

I have discovered that if, when I have the urge to go eat something, I just drink a large glass of water and go do something else, the feeling is gone within fifteen minutes. I actually ate real food Sunday evening when we had a guest for dinner. My stomach has shrunk amazingly well. I couldn't finish a chicken breast fillet (broiled) and a stalk of broccoli and one of cauliflower. Abstinence has been good for me on that front. Don't worry about the odd plateau with the weight loss. That's perfectly normal. As you lose weight, your body doesn't need as many calories to keep it going for one thing, and more importantly in your case I suspect, you are building muscle, which weighs more than fat. Inches matter more than pounds.
