Well tomorrow shall be one week that I started my weight loss diet.
I stayed the same this morning. So no losses for the past two days, but I have lost close to 5 pounds in the first 4 days.
I think after tomorrow I am going to reduce the number of days I weigh myself. I feel better if I don't weigh every day. Last time that I lost a lot of weight, I was following Weight Watchers and I only weigh at the center. I think I would feel better if I see my weight only once a week.
As planed I did manage to reduce my sugar alcohol and artificial sweater consumption yesterday. I had one bar and one shake, no Jello, no Mio. Good for me, lol. Instead I had more Cheerios and almonds.
Cheerios is low calorie but a high carb food, almonds is the other way around. So one serving of each, 1 cup Cheerios, 1 oz almond, has 100+163 calories, 20+5 grams carbohydrate, 3+3 grams fiber, and 1+1 grams sugar. Combining one serving of Cheerios and almond as a snack once a day I think is going to be pretty good, but yesterday I had two servings of each and so my calories where on the high side, 1163.
Starting tomorrow I am going to keep track of my carbs and fiber in addition to the calories.
I did manage to drink 12 cups of water seamlessly yesterday. I had one bottle of 24 oz before I went to work, and took three with me. I decided to play the drinking game, water drinking that is, lol. Every time I noticed no one was in the lobby I drink water. By 8 pm I was done with my three bottles.
I made zucchini soup yesterday and had half of it for lunch, but didn't like the taste and even though I took the other half to work with me I didn't eat it. Instead I got grilled chicken, with tomato and a pickle, no mayo, on whole wheat. I usually stir fry both chicken and zucchini separately and then cook them in water with lots of spice. Yesterday I wasn't in the mood of stir frying so I just boiled the chicken and zucchini together with the usual spices but it didn't turn good. Or maybe it was because I didn't have it with yogurt or sour cream that I usually have it with. In any case the soup just didn't taste appetizing.
