New Territory

I can't remember the last time (before today) that I saw 177 (80.3 kg.) on the scale.  In the first couple weeks of my second pregnancy during the summer of 2002, I weighed 178 (80.7 kg.), but that's the lowest I can recall in recent history.  Until today!

I'm down 1.4 lbs. (.6 kg.) since last week.  I'm adjusting my ticker for the first time since 12/22.  I've now lost a total of 103 lbs. (46.7 kg.).

I'm still tracking my food, a subject that I've blogged about a bit lately.  This week I fell between 1,200 - 1,300 calories a day on four days.  My daily average for the week was 1,386 calories per day.  I eat more on weekends so I think this is a pretty realistic daily average.  The prior week my daily average was 1,540 calories so I'm pleased to see things settling down. 

I've noticed lately that I've added some new followers.  I'd like to follow you too so please leave your blog info in my comments.  I appreciate all my followers so much.  Thank you for your support!

Excellent news! I am DYING to get into the 170s. Tracking my food is helping. I won't do it forever, but I'm fine with it for now. With great restriction this whole weight loss thing is once again easy!

That is so great Amanda. What software do you use to track your food every day? I have used (I say that because I haven't been using it for a while)FitDay and TheDailyPlate. I need to start tracking my food again. It really kept me on track. YOu are such an inspiration.

Kristin said...

Great news, Amanda. Your discipline and determination are inspiring to me (and I'm in the market for inspiration right now!).

Sarah said...

Yay! How very exciting! I was about 175 when I got pregnant, I haven't seen that in a long time! Hope to see it next month!

Good job on tracking. I'm finding it very helpful too. I think I was eating just a weeee bit more than I thought. It sure adds up!
