wow, so I skipped the weekend because I'm sure the alcohol I consumed was my daily calories alone (I'd like to add that I had 900 calories of rum and 1000 calories of sambuca, not counting my mix. FUCK) So I'm back at it today. It's hard to find lunch food that I can have easily at work that's not 900 calories or 12 WW points! It's daunting. Only reason I'm going to stay under my points today is because I got let go from work and didn't eat the meal. I'm saving it for tomorrow (when I don't have any snack food at work).
The walking is going well though. I walked to work all three shifts last week, then walked Friday and Saturday. Took Sunday off to rest (aka felt sick as shit and stayed on the couch all day). And I walked to and from today. I may try and coax Chris into a walk tonight to add more to the calories burned. Right now I'm burning about 700 calories more than I'm eating a day, which is awesome.
I'm allowed 1200 calories a day. Walking to work burns between 150 and 200 calories. Walking home burns 500 calories. I burn roughly 1000 calories a day when I'm doing nothing (gotta love our bodies eh?) , 500 when I sleep. So with out any exercise if I eat right, I burn 300 calories more than I eat. That plus my exercise means I should be burning about 1000 calories a day, 3500 burned =1lb lost. so if anyone is doing the math I should be losing 2lbs or more a week as long as I am actually giving my body enough calories through food to burn (I wish it could just burn off the fat cells in my belly before it did the food... but that's just wishful thinking). If I can actually keep this up, and see the 2lb change each week, by summer vacation I'll have lost 20lbs and 2 pant sizes!
Hmmm... if I keep this up I may not be able to hide from the boys anymore, Chris will be beating them away from the windows.... wait... he'd enjoy that, and I'd enjoy watching it... so maybe this is a good thing.
