Daily Report : Day 3 Week 133

by chrisistoofat @ 2009-11-10 – 06:53:45

Brief summary of yesterday (Monday, 09 November 2009) :

Calories : 1802. Mini Twix bar did not help (98 cals).

Exercise : 30+ mins running.

Been slacking a bit with my reporting. Not touched the scales recently but it won't be good news. Finally cracked with the exercise and went out for a run yesterday; the first for 3 weeks. Felt quite lethargic - hardly surprising - and just plodded round. Bit nippy too at an autumnal +6C so I replaced shorts with track-suit bottoms. Still a bit underdressed though.

Back tomorrow if I remember. Enthusiasm a bit low-ebb.

Just to enthuse you, in Winter you can lose weight a little easier, as the cold weather makes the body use up more of its reserves. It won't do to replace them with lots of sweeties though. However, you are allowed treats within your usual cal intake...not out of it. (Easier said than done).

To cheer you up, I had a wee pig out today, on twiglets and some potato salad.

Tonight is definitely stir fry and a small quantity of egg-fried rice with one egg. It's a small amount because the rice was in the pan covered with water waiting to be cooked...it was surplus to requirements for a meal hubby made and was not cooked till this morning, by me. I did not add to it.

  Thanks for the encouragement, Menhir. I need it.
  
  I am not so sure about using up more reserves in winter. Seems to me I eat more to keep me warm ! So keeping within calories budget is doubly difficult now onwards.
  
  Now Twiglets is something I have not seen for years, still less sampled. But you spoiled it by mentioning the 'S' word (salad !).
  
  And you are setting the example once again with the virtuous sounding stir-fry. Whereas I had beef casserole (a Mrs CITF concoction) with baked tatie and copious varied veg. I was offered stewed apple to follow up (to get rid of it !) but really I am sick of apple these days. There are still some rather ripe red ones on the tree in the garden, despite the dedicated attentions of blackbirds, tits, jays and, to my surprise, green woodpeckers.
  
  But, despite all this banter, the harsh fact is I have bust my calories budget for the day so am consoling myself with a cup of tea (20 cals).
  
  And so, shortly, to bed.

    Sorry for lack of response....found this reply in the spam box along with about 40 other replies from other people. There's odd things going on.
    
    If it is any consolation, I finished a second container of twiglets. I had it about a week or maybe, a bit more. Would you believe it, this incarnation are designed as mini-twiglets. All that means is they aren't long ones. I guess the weight of the cylindrical container is what it should be.
