After a not great weight loss this week, I want to be more diligent about tracking calories in / calories out.
Having been sick, I haven't been eating enough (if you have had tonsillitis before you will know that every time you are hungry/thirsty it is a toss up between "how much will my throat hurt swallowing" versus "how hungry am I"). But I also haven't been exercising enough - and not eating enough is probably not helping in that regard.
Wednesday 1 June summary
Calories in: 730
Calorie breakdown: 12% fat; 65.5% carbs; 22.5% protein
Calories out (exercise): None
Calories out (BMR): 1250
Net calorie deficit: 520
Just writing this out now makes me realise how important exercise is. Obviously 730 calories is not enough to eat in a day, but without exercise I would still only lose half a kilo a week eating this little.
About to have some broccoli soup from the program for lunch. Can't wait until I'm feeling better and can follow the meal plan (although only cooking for 1 there will always be some modifications). I have been eating a lot of soup and sugar-free jelly since I've been sick!
