| Sunday's Weigh-In: 249.2 lbs Goal Weight: 185.0 lbs Pounds to Lose : 64.2 lbs |
...I weigh two hundred and forty-nine point two.
That means I've lost 13.6 lbs since starting this blog three weeks ago and 32.6 lbs since June 2013. I'm a tad disappointed but I'm glad to be in the 240s. Last week, I said I wouldn't continue walking 7 miles a day if I didn't lose 8 or more pounds, well, yesterday I had a change of heart. While I still dread doing 7 miles every day I'm kind of happy I'm doing it. I can proudly say "I walked 49 miles and burned 8325 calories." I hope the scale gods were kind to you as well.
I can across this fitawesome app, yes, fitawesome. An awesome fitness app, Fitocracy. It's available on iOS and Android. It's free and there is a website as well if you don't want to use the app. What Fitocracy does is gamify your workouts. What I mean by that is it gives you points for your workouts and level up like in a video game. I'm on level 6 after logging in this week workouts. You can do quests that involve completing some exercise routine. Another cool feature, is when you enter your workouts, they show up on a public feed so other users can give you 'props', which it similar to Facebook's 'like'. The founders, Brian Wang and Richard Talens, have profiles, I'm following both. Brian is following me back which I think is kind of cool because he has 176,223 followers but is only following 10,891.
I didn't get the halibut or catfish for my cheat day instead I doubled my meat intake and rice like last week. I really love salmon, pork chops, and rice.
I made orange sorbet. I blended 4 oranges (peeled, of course), 4 cups of ice, added 2 tbsps of honey. It turned out a more like a smoothie but it's still good.
One last thing, be sure to check out Food Facts, I found an article from the Mayo Clinic about eggs and cholesterol. Very interesting read.

I was getting a little tired of walking the same path so I decided to change it up a bit and walk it in reverse. I think I will alternate weeks walking it forward and backward.
