Hundred Day Head Start Diet, fitness, exercise, and weight loss


Weigh-in: Down 2 lbs. For the Month.

12.24.2009 · Posted in Personal Updates

Conditions were ripe for a bad weigh-in, and I did not disappoint.

But, as my doctor said, “at least you didn’t gain weight and that’s good this time of year.”

So yes, it’s good. No, I’m not going to obsess on it.

I’ve been sick for about 2 weeks and continued to work long hours. I’m still eating much lighter, more normal portion sizes, the combination of exhaustion and illness led me to convenience foods rather than healthy eating. Dinner would be a handful of crackers rather than a chicken breast and a salad; breakfast was a bowl of cereal rather than an egg or some oatmeal. Oddly, I did fine with lunches. Packed mine nearly every day, just a sandwich and a piece of fruit. Snacking was limited to the one day we celebrated at work, when everyone brought in Christmas goodies.

My doctor also said I may have put on some muscle weight with the exercise I’ve done. If so, I’m good with that.

So, I’ll stick with the plan: cut portion sizes, continue to increase the frequency of exercise, and stay away from crap food. Down 22 pounds in 3 months. I can do better.

  • I have already about it.I have good ideas for weight loss.Without doing any hard effort you all can lose your weight.just everyone should try to take 8 glasses of water daily on the right time.Try to take water in this way
    2 glasses:when we wake up
    1 glass:before breakfast
    1 glass:after breakfast
    1 glass:before lunch
    1 glass:after lunch
    1 glass:before dinner
    1 glass:after dinner
    Try to take lots of water before going to bed which will helps to have sound sleep.So this is easy and best method to have good body and remain healthy.Try to follow it.

    the process of losing weight should always also include gaining muscle! as muscle looks differenly than fat it can be a great addition to your body.

  • Sounds like you're doing fine. I wouldn't worry about not losing so much, like you say it's nothing to stress over. Stick to it and in a bit more time you'll see some results. :)
