Weekly Weigh in 19

[maverick_weirdo]

I walked fifteen miles over 5 days; the leaves are getting really pretty. I went kayaking once. I did 7 half hour yoga sessions.

My average calories per day this week were 1685 (this is the week I raised my calories per day target to 1700); with a range of 1620 – 1719.

My weight last week was 158 lbs. (72 kilograms)
My weight today is 157 lbs. (71 kilograms)

Eating more calories this week was interesting. While it was nice to have a bit more flexibility, by the end of the week I noticed that my body didn’t always want to stop eating at 1700 per day. Eating out I find is a challenge, because portions seem Huge to me now.

I am a bit surprised my weight went down this week, although it was actually 157.4 so with just a couple of ounces more it would have been level with last week’s number. With this in mind I will continue the 1700 calories per day experiment next week.

Doggy bags are your friend. You can also cut off the part you don't want to eat right then and have it wrapped up right away.

Appetizers in lieu of dinner are also a nice way to save a little money.

Congrats on the weight loss! Fantastic result.
