I haven't posted in a while. I lost track. Yesterday I hit a real low point that is motivating me to get back on track. Today was better.

My daily caloric intake is around 1700 for today. Burn will be around 2300. It's a low burn day because I didn't get nearly enough steps in. I will work harder on that tomorrow. I did bike on the stationary bike for 45 minutes again, but that is such a low calorie burn. It's fine though, it's a start. I know if I follow my Fit Bit tomorrow and get up for 200 steps every hour I will get a much higher calorie burn.

I need to get my intake down a couple of hundred calories. 1700 isn't bad (I'm very overweight.) I can't function on less than 1500, but I think I can cut out that 200 fairly easily if I change my lunch sandwich to a salad. Could also adjust my breakfast to cut out a couple of hundred calories. I've also learned that fluctuating intake daily, some days a little higher and some days a little lower keeps my body guessing.

I am going to get back down to my healthy weight and kick this habit.
