The weight loss is slowing
Date: 3/9/2009 2:14:22 AM ( 15 y ago)
This week was in some respects quite good and in others not so good. I gained one pound of muscle mass while dropping 2 pounds of fat mass. The end result was a one pound weight loss. I just feel that as hard as I am working it should have been more. I have decided to up the cardio once again and really keep an eye on my caloric intake. I don't cheat at all as far as junk food goes, but I think my portion sizes may be adding more calories then I originally thought, especially my protein. I buy fresh chicken breasts in a three pack and although I don't weigh each one individually, I suspect that they are closer to 6 ounces rather than the four ounces I have been counting towards my daily total. Over a week that adds up because I'm eating around 24 breasts a week. I prefer the chicken to fish as it's really hard to get fresh fish where I'm at. I do eat quite a bit of tuna however. Anyway, I either need to burn more calories each day through aerobics or take in less calories to try and keep my daily intake to around 2200 calories. Overall I can't really complain as I have lost 34 pounds in 10 weeks. Only 29 more to go to meet my goal. Here are the week 10 stats.
