February 18, 2010--Dieting Scorecard (228.5 lbs)

Morning Weight: 228.5 pounds (see note below)
Diet Goal: 225 pounds (3.5 pounds lost, 3.5 pounds to go)

6:00--walked 45 minutes
7:00--260 calories
10:00--100 calories
12:00--600 calories
5:30--250 calories
7:45--320 calories

Daily total = 1,530 calories


NOTE: If the body is something like 70% fluids then my body is composed of about 160 pounds of fluids. That means a daily loss of 3 pounds in certainly possible, but I don't honestly believe that 3 pounds of pure fat has melted away. Going by the calculation that a pound of fat equals about 3,500 calories of energy, I don't think my body burned up 10,000 calories over the last 24 hours. Not that I'm complaining. It's definitely a move in the right direction. Now I need to hold on to this success and work hard to get through this 228 pound area which has been a sticking point for me in the past.)
