Wednesday Weigh In

I lost 1 lb this week!! And, I'll take it! I must say I am completely surprised. The weekend was a complete disaster, food wise. The weight loss certainly gives me motivation to keep going. To avoid a food disaster again this weekend I think I'll pack my food for the day, the night before. (like I do during the week)

I found this great website: It calculates the carbs, protein and fat you need to maintain your weight and gives you a range to stay within. By using this, you can reduce the number of (calories/carb/protein & fat) you need, in order to lose a certain number of pounds per week. It's worth checking out.

Remember: 3,500 calories = 1lb

One little change I've made this week: I take 4 flights of stairs up to the wellness room, 3 times a day. (I'm breastfeeding, so I have to pump during the day) The elevator sure is easier! But, thinking like that is what got me in this situation.

Hope you had success this week!!
