We had a mardi gras party at work today. It was not good. If it had just been the fried chicken, I would have been fine. Even the biscuits...I could have stopped. The addition of desserts and sides though...yeah that was too much.
So for today I'm just going to call it a blown day, and award myself 0 points for it. I don't think I went completely nuts, and breakfast and dinner were both small-ish. Still, the walking alone wasn't going to be enough.

Day 2 - No cheating yet
Today was merely the second day of the diet. I'll consider myself reasonably successful if I can make it at least one week without cheating completely (there's a fried chicken Mardi Gras thing tomorrow at work...so I'll be cheating a little). For now though I'm reasonably on track.
For now though I'm doing okay: breakfast was pancakes again (out of other breakfast options) (450 calories), lunch was a meatball sub, chips and soda (750 calories), dinner was penne with sauce (800 calories) and snacks was a little peanut butter (100 calories).
Steps today were 15,128.

Starting Over Again
Last May I broke my foot, just as I was starting to get into shape. It blew up my plans for the summer, but worst of all is it took me out of the habit of exercise completely. I not only didn't recover after healing, I got worst.
So now my weight is the worst it's been in ten years. I have to end that trend. So I'm going to be starting to work my way back into the habit.
My starting weight this time: 289.6 pounds.
Today I ended up eating more than I initially planned (largely due to a couple granola bars I decided to have as snacks during the evening), but I got back on the exercise bike and walked quite a bit. It isn't a perfect start, but it's a start regardless.
Food today: pancakes for breakfast (450 calories), a Newman's Own pizza for lunch (900 calories), penne with sauce for dinner (800 calories) and snacks were the two granola bars (300 calories)
Exercise today: rode the exercise bike for 40 minutes or so (376 calories) and also walked 14,788 steps.
