Alright, so back to the calorie counting and hopefully more exercising. Boyfriend is convinced that he can drop 30 lbs in 100 days. I am convinced that I can drop 30 lbs faster than boyfriend. And I am nothing, if not competitive. So today I consumed 1300 calories, and I weigh 185 lbs.

Breakfast:
Banana
Fiber One Strawberry Yogurt Yoplait,
Mid-morning snack:
Good Sense Dried Pineapple
Lunch:
Weight Watchers Smart Ones Three Cheese Ziti Marinara
Afternoon Snack:
Carrot Sticks
Dinner:
Campbell's Soup at Hand Creamy Tomato
Red Lead Lettuce Salad with Chicken & Thousand Island Dressing
Rye Toast with Olivio
Dessert:
Grapefruit w/out sugar

All I have to say is I am SOOOOO hungry. And instead of eating, I'm just drinking water or green tea every time I am hungry. It's a sad, sad existence. I also went for a walk on my lunch at work today, so there's 10 minutes of light cardio to add to my life. I also got some energy vitamins and weight loss vitamins, I'm taking one of each every day. And a bunch of sugar-free coffee! It's a good start!

Ok, so although I ate more calories than I do on some of my junk food days, I feel like they are better calories to have consumed overall. Complex carbs and veggies and what have you. ALSO, I finally did get some exercise in today. I went for a 20 minute walk on my lunch break, a 10 minute walk after work, and I hoe-ed up my entire garden patch, which took me 15-20 minutes. According to Spark People, this burned me approx 180 calories, leaving me at 1520 calories for the day. Which is not too shabby. I'm looking forward to getting some exercise in tomorrow as well. And eating diet food again. Yay for commitment, boo for swim suit season getting even closer.

Today, I just couldn't seem to eat enough food, I was starving all day long. It's a good thing I was stocked up on low calorie options so that I didn't have a 3500 calorie day. Lunch was probably a bit too heavy, but there was lobster bisque available at Price Chopper, and it's one of my favorites, so I had it in addition to my sushi. I wanted to go for a walk on my lunch at work today, but the weather has been rainy, so I don't want to get drenched. Maybe tomorrow it will be nicer.
