Yesterday was not a good day. I had a minor procedure done and it gave me terrible cramps the entire day. I did nothing but sit around with a heating pad on my belly and watch tv on the couch. I was a true couch potato. I also ate some doritos - I would have eaten potato chips but the bag isn't open and I know I won't be able to stop if I open it so I kept it closed. Still not a lot of calories for the day but certainly not a south beach day... bread, mashed potatoes, doritos. not south beachy at all.
Today is a better day. I went to the gym and did 4 miles on the eliptical, not my usual one hour but I'll take 45 minutes when I still don't feel 100%. Then lots of house cleaning(yuk) and laundry (yuk again). Have eaten healthy and made good choices so far.
So based on my calorie intake and my calorie expenditures I should have lost weight this week. I am going to remember to get on the scale tomorrow before I get dressed and see where I am at. I weighed twice last week but the first time was in the middle of the day fully clothed. The second time was in the morning before eating anything. I was so excited to find this site that I just had to enter a weight the first day. I did not like that first number at all!
