Day 4

Down another .8 this morning! So a total of 2.2 pounds lost so far this week. My goal is to lose 2 per week (or more, of course). I think I will be more excited when I lose 5 pounds, because then I will finally be done with those same three pounds that I have been in for the past few months or so.
Exercise: 35 minutes on elliptical, 10 minutes on weights. 370 calories burned (today felt extra hard)

Breakfast:
1 cup Honey Nut Cheerios: 150 calories
3/4 cup 1% milk: 70 calories
Total: 220 calories
Snack:
Yogurt: 100 calories
Tortilla with cheese: 150
Total: 250 calories

I have decided I need to eat eggs or something other than cereal for breakfast. I got pretty hungry today just after an hour after breakfast. But when I had eggs the other mornings, I felt pretty good.

Lunch: I met Jon for lunch and we went to Sonic.

Grilled Chicken Sandwich: 330 calories
Small fry: 200 calories
Diet Sprite: 0 calories
Total: 530 calories

I have had 1000 calories so far today, and it's only 3. BUT, I am still pretty full from lunch, so I think it will be a light dinner.

Dinner:
Grapes: 80 calories
2 tortillas: 200 calories
meat with corn and black beans: 220 calories
Total: 500 calories

Today's total: 1500 calories

It's not bad, but I wanted to be better (more veggies and fruits).

Tomorrow is another day :)

I went grocery shopping and bought some more grapes and pineapple and zucchini. Mmmm. (I wanted some bananas, but they were already turning brown - blech).
