Obviously patience is not a virtue that I possess! Every day, before my shower, I step on the scale and start my day with a little 'yeah me' moment because the numbers are dropping. However, yesterday morning.... big FAT NADA!!! Not a tenth of a change :P This morning, my numbers were actually higher! Obviously my crappy night shift eating schedule (or lack thereof) has wrecked havoc on my momentum. I found that with waking up at 1pm, I was only eating the breakfast and dinner meals and skipping right over the lunch. I don't tend to eat when I'm on nightshift so even pushing in the one meal was hard, but to try 2 I found impossible. That means that I was only taking in 700 calories a day. I was on the treadmill for an hour each day, finishing 3 miles in 1 hour (430 calories). Lesson learned, I MUST eat all 3 meals and all of the 1300 calories or my body isn't going to give up anything.
I'm hoping to get back on track this week.
James is kicking diet ass! He has been diligent with his meals and his vitamens and squeezes time on the treadmill in whenever possible. I'm going to leave his weight loss numbers a surprise for the first weigh in but let's just say that if patience is a virtue that I don't possess, envy is something I've got in spades!!!
