Fair to Middlin'

Meh. Only lost a half pound this week. Pie-hole issues. And, ya know, it's that time of the month and all.

That said, here's what the numbers looked like:

• Average calories per day: 1861.4
• Days ate less than burned: 5 of 7
• Total minutes spent exercising: 345

The fact that I'm on my feet at work for 7 hours helps me out a lot. If I had a desk job, I'd have to eat like 1200 calories a day to lose anything.

I have higher hopes for this week. I should shed the last of the "monthly weight" and I'd like to really keep my eating under control. Exercising has been easier than controlling my eating.

I'm also learning that I really should only buy like 2 or 3 days worth of produce at a time. It doesn't last and then I end up throwing it out. Especially leafy things. Other stuff you can freeze or use to make soup. Not an option with lettuce.

I'm planning on posting more often. I know I keep saying that, but I'd like to shoot for 3 times a week. Then I can start detailing my workouts and daily calorie counts. At some point I'd like to actually be able to look back and see how my workouts are improving over time. Especially when I start doing pull ups. I'd be excited to see more than one on there. Hell, I'd be excited to see one if I did it by myself.
