Day 3: Hooray, my trial run worked! I had ice cream for dessert when we went out last night and still managed to maintain my current weight! Not going to push my luck though. Desserts will now be a occasional, not daily, item! Nice to know, though, that I can budget in a luxury once in a while and still stay on track :)
I'm trying to get into the habit of plotting out my meals (and posting them) each morning. That way I know exactly what I'm eating and when I'm eating it...also I can see right away if I'm too high or low or any specific thing...like proteins or sodium.
I'm still getting used to the exercise journal. Is it juust me or do the calories expended listed there seem a little high? However, I'm not used to counting them so maybe it is me. I'm having to make some adjustments in it since my major exercise isn't list...water aerobics. I'm trying half swimming/half walking as a close approximation based on what we do during class. It's just a guess though... Does anyone know if there is a way to add in other exercises?
