Morning weigh-in: 148.5 kg; -0.3 kg
Three hundred grams is a start, but unless that increases drastically, I'm not going to hit my 145.5 kg mini-goal this week. I really wish I could figure out why I'm suddenly putting on weight instead of losing. But in any case, the important thing is that despite the occasional gain and the slower rate of loss, the general trend is down. If I don't hit my mini-goal again this week, then surely I'll hit in next week, or maybe the one after that. But I will make it, and then I'll keep going past it towards the next goal.
Breakfast was two eggs, bacon and coffee (255 calories), and then I did a 15-minute workout (5.4 km; -238 calories), took a 5(ish)-minute break, and then did another 15-minute workout (5.2 km; -238 calories).
Lunch was a bit of left-over soup (85 cals), some left-over stir fry pork (60 cals), and a can of borlotti (pinto) beans (255 cals). Then dinner was meat loaf (480 cals) and mixed veggies (110 cals). Somewhere in there I had a couple of handfuls of beer nuts (280 cals) and various cups of coffee and tea (90 cals).
I also did two more 15-minute workouts (5.2 km and 5.6 km; 240 cals each), once before lunch and one after dinner. I was going to try to work in one more, but that last one kicked my ass. But I added another 0.1 km to my 15 minutes, so I hope it was worth it.
I finished up the day with a total of 1605 calories, minus 955 calories burned, for a net of 650.
My calories were a little high today because I was basically just eating whatever left-overs I could find in the fridge. I didn't have anything ready to go, and my usual stand-by (bacon and eggs) wasn't really an option because I'm running low. Still, 1600 isn't bad, and it's a lot less than I was regularly eating just a week or two ago. But clearly things are easier when I've got more options readily available.
