I made kardemummabullar again at the request of the bf, so I ate one. Yes, one. Out of the 18. They’ll be in the house, so I need to exercise some restraint. I also had a bunch of egg yolks so I made some challah. Both of those put me over my carbs for the day, but I managed to make everything else work out. (I had already had the piece of chocolate and pad thai before I started to make those.)
So, I almost made it on food today. Issue was carbs, where I no longer could eliminate other food to compensate for the kardemummabullar and challah to get in under my carbs for the day. I still got fat and calories under the limit, and protein within 5% of the goal, but carbs were too high. Oh well.
Exercise … I end the week with no real weights, but I did put in a rather large, 78-minute go on the elliptical this evening. I’m hoping that the scale goes down tomorrow.
Ah … the scale. My nemesis. This morning I was up to 216.7 lbs, which was where I was at the beginning of the week, and far from where I should be. After exercising, I was down to 216.1 lbs (I sweated a lot, it had just rained and it was pretty humid), so I counted it as a “supplemental” weigh-in, so I have 8 for the week total. Anyway, that’s it for today, though I worked more on planning food for the next few weeks given my likely travel (see next post on the weekly summary.
