I goofed yesterday. I stopped at Wendy's drive-through for a Diet Coke and decided to reward myself with a Single w/cheese combo (hold mayo and onion). That's about 440 calories for the burger, and another 440 calories for the fries. Actually, the cheeseburger itself isn't too bad and tasted great. I should have done without the fries; they didn't taste as good as I remembered them. As it is, I had cream of mushroom soup for breakfast at 340 calories and some mushrooms for dinner at maybe 300 calories. That made yesterday almost a 1600 calorie day.
Nevertheless...
Morning weigh-in: 374 pounds (estimated)
Blood pressure: 128 / 84
Lost 4 pounds. And my hypertension is gone again.
I'm starting to enjoy this. 26 pounds is only about 6% of my weight, but it makes a lot of difference at the margin. My knees don't hurt like they used to. Getting in and out of the car is noticeably easier. Climbing the stairs takes less out of me, and I don't have to hold on as much. Tying my shoes is easier. All these little things are getting better.
Also, I took in my belt a notch yesterday.
