Menus and Miles Friday Feb. 3rd

WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!! AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!! THEY ARE ADDICTING!! THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!! THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER.

Success in Maintenance starts with GOOD CHOICES during the Honeymoon Period.

I'd say happy Friday but instead I say hmmmpff. I'm ready to throw in the towel.  I have a good eating week low calorie, high protein, been to the gym twice, yesterday my calories in were 998, calories burnt  1694.....and today I'm up 1.7 lbs.  WHY DO I BOTHER? 

Please don't try to explain with it's water, because my scale tells me my water percentage and that isn't changing....nothing is, except my weight.....so frustrating.

Anyway, end rant, I know you've all been there. Doesn't probably help my mood that I've been up since 4:30.  Today's plan:

B - 1 egg, 1 cheese slice

S - deli turkey, pickle chips

L - chili

S - premier protein

D - steak (mmmmmm)

Cal 890, carbs 43, protein 100.
