For the first time since writing this blog I skipped a day of writing in it, things have been busy and I just didn't get a change to do it Sunday, so I will post up the intake for Saturday and then Sunday in one post, sorry if it turns into a longer than usual post. Here is the intake for Saturday, I ended up with 1410 calories for the day.

Grand total of 1410 calories for Saturday.

Like I said I have been busy here with some things I needed to get done. but the loss continues in a downward direction so I am happy with that, I did not get any what I would call exercise over the weekend besides some random push ups here and there. things are over all going well for me with the weight loss. I am very happy with my results thus far. My wife showed me a picture of myself from August of last year and man! talk about a difference, I am wearing a shirt in the pic that fits me way too big right now and I can honestly say when I look at that pic I am happy that I chose to take on this challenge of dropping the excess weight. maybe when I lose a bit more weight I will be brave enough to post the picture up. not a whole lot of people that are not close friends or family have seen the old pics of me and I look forward to reaching goal and making a side by side of them with the old pics.

I think I am settling into a rhythm and feel like this is how I must live to keep on living, its not a task to eat like this and its not a task to get in the exercise. its becoming a way of life and I believe that is why its successful for me at this point. I do not crave sweets, I do not crave fatty foods and actually feel a little guilty if I slip up, saying guilt is not really how I feel maybe more of an awareness I don't know exactly how to say it other than that. I know whats bad for me and whats good for me and I know how to get it into my body in moderation. I can say with 100% certainty that where my food intake and exercise concerned that I am a different person that I was just 3 months ago.

When I first started with this change I thought to myself "How am I going to stick to this" and now I think to myself "Why did this take so long". over all I am satisfied with my results and know that I am healthier for what I have done. and with that here is the Menu for Sunday.
