*Have relaxed a bit in the diet and paid the price: not doing so well. Just as I finished getting over a cold, I got another one - after pulling a 52 hour week at school, NOT counting the time spent at home working. Ugh.

Very belated update

Um, yeah. I've been a bit discouraged/worn out lately so I haven't felt like writing. However, I haven't given up the diet, and although I had one bad week, I've more or less stuck to it - even though I haven't been writing down all my calories. I HAVE been adding them up daily, though, so the habit isn't lost.

Weight last Sunday: 207.4
Weight today: 203.8
Average Calories per day: n/a (probably 1450ish)
Number of days I went over 1500 calories: ?
Number of days I had caffeine: multiple. Like, every day. Ish.
Number of days with fast food: 0
Number of days I had a carbonated drink: 2
Number of days exercised: 1
Hours exercised: 1ish (I've had a terribly bad cold!)

Not sure what caused the jump down in pounds. I weighed myself several times in the week and it was pretty consistent, so today isn't a total fluke (yesterday it was 202.8). Maybe it's been all the water weight with being sick, and as I got better I lost it? Dunno. I DO know I've been less physically active (James even grounded me) - Actually, I've been kind of a lump. Wednesday I even went home before school ended, just to be a lump. But without the sense of taste food has been less appetizing so I haven't eaten much but soup and half peanut butter sandwiches. Kind of pathetic really. Today's our free day and I'm just glad I have a little bit of taste back. Yay!
