174.4lbs today!

That means, I'm down about 6lbs total! Not too shabby! And yesterday, the scale said 173.6lbs! It seems like I drop a "big" amount one day, then gain a bit of it back the next. Then have a "big" drop and then the cycle repeats itself.

AND I joined a gym!

Now, I just have to make myself go and actually workout.

My plan is to go and workout from 6am-7am doing some cardio then the back/abs circut. The goal is to workout on Monday and Tuesday, then take Wednesday off. Wednesday is church night and that will make for a really long day, plus my muscles will need a break. Then its back to it on Thursday and Friday. No workouts on Saturday or Sunday. See, I can do this whole working out 4x a week right? Right! :)

I'm actually doing pretty well in the diet area too. I've cut down my caffeine intake to 1 cup of 1/2 caff. coffee in the morning and the occasional Diet Coke/Sugar Free Tea. I'm also trying to eat as follows:

Breakfast: 200 cal
Snack: 100 cal
Lunch: 300 cal
Snack: 100 cal
Dinner: 400-500 cal

For a grand total of 1200 cal per day. I'm trying to eat more fruits/veggies and stay away from the pre-packaged stuff, but its kinda hard!

I had a doctor's appointment this week and I weighed exactly the same as I did last year. I was kinda discouraged when the nurse said this, but then I had to stop and catch myself and think about the positive. The average American gains 5lbs or more EVERY year! So, at least I had already lost my year's worth of "average" weight gain.

Hope this next week goes well and I can break to 172lbs!
