Here I go,since my day is over I will get the ball rolling... thanks to fitday.com I have started counting calories- I need some help though, see my questions below...
My goal is to lose only a few pounds to put me back to fitting into a dress i need to wear to a wedding on April 30th, exercise should do it but keeping a log will hopefully keep me away from sugary treats which are bad for me!
My BMR is 1406 basal but with "lifestyle" which I checked as "seated some movement" it rises to 2320- Which should I count to get to my food budget?
I did very little exercise today as I am still sick but that is no reason to pile on the pounds! I DID cook dinner thought and cleared up a little.
ANYWAY here's my log:
Breakfast: small white breadroll (warm so no butter etc needed) Bowl of porridge made on water, teaspoon of honey
Lunch: another small breadroll, a cow& gate fruit cup, 200ml Chocolate soymilk
Dinner: Gnocchi with homemade pasta sauce that contained zucchini, spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms, peppers, tomato puree, herbs and peppers, it was REALLY yummy Dessert: another fruit cup
Water: at least 6 pint glasses, I have a sore throat so have been slugging it back- so 120 oz What should my water goal be?
My total calories for the day are 1445.
I had NO sweets or biscuits today. This could be (a) Because I finished both packs of the ones I like yesterday. or (b) because I am sensible and being good.
I really wanted to go for a walk today but absolutely wasn't up to it, I never even got dressed I am hoping to go to work tomorrow and if I do I will bring my runners and walk home, it clears my head and takes 35-40mins so its good exercise too. If the weather's OK I will probably drag P for a 40 minute walk tomorrow evening too. Just hope I am feeling better...
Thanks for listening!
