Calorie counts for the week:
![]() |
6/17 was my day off from tracking--but I had about 4,000 calories. Yikes! |
With the exception of Friday, my calories were pretty low. While I was losing weight before, I was eating probably about 1600 calories per day. This week, I just tried to stay in my calorie range given by Sparkpeople, which is 1200-1550. I figured since I had such a high calorie day on Friday, that eating at the low-end of the range the rest of the week was best. Daily average ended up being 1690.
Mileage this week:
Wed- 2.0
Thu- 3.5
Fri- 3.0
Sat- 2.0
Sun- 7.0
Mon- 3.0
Tue- 2.0
Calorie deficit from food: 68 (with 1700 as a baseline)
Calorie deficit from exercise: 2516 (not counting strength training)
Calorie debt payoff for the week: 2584
I feel like I'm getting my mojo back in full-swing. I'm really excited to get back to the 130's. I feel very uncomfortable in the 140's. And since I declared 133 my "official" goal weight, I'm psyched to see it on the scale again soon!
I really need your motivation!!!! you're amazing!
ReplyDeleteGreat job Katie!! 3.5 lbs is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteYou just commented on my blog so I know you saw that my attempts to eat less this week (which were more like 1500 than 1200 calories) resulted in two days of over-eating and binging - I just can't do it! I'm sure my average ended up being closer to 1700-1750 if you factored in my two really bad days...
You can do it Katie. You are amazing =) vanillamama
ReplyDeleteYou rock girl!
ReplyDeletecongrats on a great loss! you kick so much ass!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are awesome! I am just barely getting out of the 140s right now and so excited about it. 4,000 calories is also epic. :)
ReplyDeleteYAY Katie!
ReplyDeleteDaaaaang, woman! Nice loss!!! Good work! Do you always run seven days per week?
ReplyDelete@Christina
ReplyDeleteThanks Christina! And actually, only two of those days were runs (3 miles and 7 miles). The rest was interval walking on the dreadmill. I made a goal to cover 270 miles this summer, which is roughly 3 miles per day, so that is the only reason I've been working out so much lately. In the fall, I definitely plan on going back to 3 days a week of running outside :)
Awesome job Katie!! :) I was so waiting for a success post like this from you. You're on your way to 133 girl!
