Weight Goal for the Month: It would be nice to hit 180. I’m new to this pace of loss, so this is a wild guess of what is possible. When doing CICO a few years ago I would barely lose 4 lbs a month on a good month.
Today’s Weight: 184
Today’s Exercise completed (calories burned if desired): Walked about 3 or 4 miles
Hours slept: roughly 7 hours
Description/Photo of Meals consumed along with times and calorie count (if desired, not necessary)
Two nights ago I felt jittery at bedtime, but last night was fine. I feel like my blood pressure is low when I eat this way, but my body is adapting.
Yesterday’s meal is from the Whole Foods buffet. I ended up not eating the shredded chicken because I was full. The lower right corner is cauliflower gratin.

It was a good weekend. On Saturdays I wait until after my daughter’s art class to eat. Walking to class and back is about 1.5 miles. We then walked to the bus for another park visit, which was about another 1.5 miles round trip. The weather here is beautiful. Sunday was also a good day with lots of walking. I’m feeling better about eating home cooked meals for economic and health reasons.0 -
