Keeping health & fitness first. Although you couldn't prove it by the scales.
Another 1.6 lbs gained!! That makes 8 lbs this month!!!!!!!!!!! Obviously I'm doing something that I'm not aware of that is causing this continual gain.
I have tried not weighing each day, but it was like giving myself a "get out of jail free pass" to do whatever I wanted without consequences.
Yesterday exercise = 1 hour pushing a old fashion manual lawn mower in 90+ degree heat. Heart rate was definitely up. Another hour spent gardening (squatting, pulling, etc) Plus the normal doings that comes with caring for a 3 year old - always on the move.
Sleep = 8 hours plus 30 minute nap.
Yesterday food/drinks =
Breakfast -1 egg, 1/2 slice cheese, 1 slice of bacon, 1/2 banana, 1/2 pear
Lunch = sauteed garden vegetables (broccoli, squash, onion, green pepper, green beans, carrots) topped with feta cheese & bacon bits
Supper = 1/2 order of General Tao chicken (no rice) & 2 helpings of steamed broccoli
snack = 7 chocolate covered raisins and tomato/bacon on skinny bread
Liquids = coffee, water, water, ice coffee, water, water, decaf coffee, water
The extra "snack" of bacon/tomato sandwich was a big blooper. Although, it was around 300 calories so not enough to cause the 1.6lb gain.
Alrighty! This is starting to make me mad. This isn't brain surgery. This is simple math. If I eat more calories than I burn up then I will gain weight. I'm going to have to get more information to see what is causing the weight gain.....because I honestly don't understand it. Today I'm going to start imputing intake into my handy-dandy spreadsheet that I previously used with success.
