Nothing much going on here today. The weather was cool and quite dull when I was doing my walking (again with a little jogging), which was nice. I still find that I can’t get myself into a jog for the second set. Oh well, that will come eventually. Now I’m just doing some last minute cleaning and tidying. With company last weekend and this weekend, I may never find anything on my desk again. I think I need to go over the ‘tidied’ piles before school starts in September.

From the HR monitor:

So the company has come and gone. I’m kind of tired so I’m just adding the food. I still need to have my protein shake and fruit. I’ll likely take the protein shake, but I haven’t decided about the fruit. I will probably have it as well. I did fairly well with the food today. From what I planned I probably took less pre-dinner snacks than I logged (ie. I logged an oz of cheese spread and a 2-pc serving of flatbread but know I didn’t take that much). However, I decided to eat the extra pieces of pork when I was cleaning up (although I dumped the excess pasta). I figure overall the calorie count is pretty close, although likely higher than actual.

Food for the day:

Total: 2415 (27% fat, 36% carbs, 32% protein)

Breakfast: two scrambled eggs, honey oatmeal bread, peach (355)
AM Snack: protein shake with frozen blueberries (199)
Lunch: whole wheat tortillas, cheese, peach (430)
PM Snack: protein shake, cheese ball, flatbread, multi-grain tostidos, salsa, pisco sour (455)
Dinner: balsamic pork tenderloin, whole wheat penne, asparagus, butter, salad w/dressing, berry yogurt sorbet (766)
Late Snack: protein shake, peaches (211)

The Sunday to Sunday loss this week is 1.8lbs. It’s been a truly up and down week as you see from the graph. The 9-week loss is 19.2lbs (2.13/week) which is usually the ‘number’ I look at to see how things are going overall. The other little compulsive number I look at is how many days I’ve been ‘on plan’ primarily with food. I still consider the maintenance week ‘on plan’ since I accomplished what I wanted to. So, since I started keeping track this is day 220 on plan with food.

Well, this morning is a cardio day and since we’re having company for dinner I thought I’d get an earlier start than normal. So, I’m off to do my walking around the pool!
