Flat Line Day



When I got on the scale this morning, it showed a little less than yesterday, but basically the same 189. I did return my shoes AGAIN to REI. I got home and realized they gave me a pair of 4E width, so I went back and got a normal width.


Here is what I did yesterday:
Run: 5 miles

Food Intake:
Oatmeal Pancakes X2: 283 Calories
Jelly: 100 calories
Egg: 70 calories
Carrots: 35 calories
Chicken Breast: 185 calories
Yogurt: 100 calories
Apples X 3: 105 calories
Banana: 108 calories
Healthy Choice Chicken Dinner: 290 calories
Milk: 90 calories
Cliff Bar: 250 calories
Recees Peanut Butter Cup (1 cup): 130 Calories
Water: LOTS AND LOTS
================================
Total: 1746 calories

Final Result (This morning), 189 lbs. 4 down and 19 to go.

Total Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) (2129) - 1746(Consumed) = 383 deficit
Total Calories burned exercising = 732
Total FAT Calories used = 1115

I did drop .5 lbs, but rounding has left me the same as yesterday for the weight loss.



Here are some of the more fun foods that some of us love and their caloric values:



Candy Corn: 20 pieces, 140 calories, 36 grams of carbs, and 28 grams of sugar !
Cinnabon Cinnamon Roll: 730 calories, 24 grams of fat, 114 grams of carbs, 1.5 grams of fiber !!!

I hope that none of you are picking up a 6 pack of Cinnabon Cinnamon rolls for a lunchtime snack.

Weekend from Hell

Well it all started on Thursday night run, some time during the 7+ miles, I managed to get a blister the size of a quarter on the arch of my foot. This really started to bother me on Friday to where I was walking on the side of my foot to avoid it. I did not get any running in this weekend because of it.
Saturday morning I drove out to the trails for Chad to run with Lori to show her the course for her 3 mile trail run in a couple of weeks. I stayed at the van and played with the little one that came with us. I ended up doing yard work the rest of the day.
Sunday in short it was Groceries, yard work, birthday party for Kimberly's friend, then to Chad and Julies place for Turkey dinner. Julie out did her self again.
On the weight loss front, I back tracked a couple of lbs from Friday morning. The weekends are the hardest for me on the diet front, but I did fair ok considering what I consumed.
