Day Off Thursday: Calorie Update
So for this new year I have decided to change the way that I am counting calories. I am not changing the program that I currently use. (www.hotcal.com) But I am changing what it says about my daily allowance of calories. For the past 3 months I have been trying to lose 3 pounds per week, and I have been pretty successful at doing it. Since Jun 11th I have lost 26 pounds which is about 2.6 pounds per week. So I am a big believer in the calorie counting system. Sure it can be a pain at first, but once you incorporate it into your day it really is not a big deal. Lately my Calories have been hovering around 2700 per day. With my new plan of losing 2 pounds per week my calories are at 3200 calories per day. So hopefully I continue at the same pace and lose around 1.7 pounds a week which will place me at my goal in 28 weeks which will at the end of march 2011. I don't expect it to go totally smooth which is why my realistic goal is in August...but it would be really nice to wrap this up in March.
