Day 36

As of today i weighed in at 206.6lbs. I suppose i was wrong about the plateau! At first the scale was saying 205.6 and i was like "no way" so i let it reset and did it again. The scale i have is usually accurate but weight fluctuates so much its definitely not something to count on.
I've been getting so so SO FULL on every meal i eat lately! I've only been eating around 800calories or so because thats all i can handle. I'm slowly raising it day by day and i've been eating every couple of hours but there is no way to go from 500 cal to 1500 cal in a day without making myself extremely sick. i already feel almost uncomfortably full after each meal and i'm not eating a whole lot. I'm not worried though because i'm taking vitamins for calcium, b12, vitamin c and such and everything i'm eating is very high in protein and such so i don't think i'm lacking any nutrients. I'm trying to increase my intake a little each day. I'm sure by next week i'll be saying the opposite and trying to decrease again. I've definitely shrunk my stomach.
Yesterday i had celery with peanut butter, coffee, an apple, chicken and 1 avocado worth of guacamole. I have this app on my android called "noom" and its really great to help calculate calories, exercise and make a weight loss plan! I've been using it the past couple days to track my calories. Instead of calculating each item individually like usually, it calculates things by the amount of calories and what kind of food it is. if it's a good food its green, if its ok its yellow, if its bad its red. I havent eaten any red but most of the food i eat is yellow. yellow encompasses all lean meat, avocados, peanut butter, etc.. green has every other veggie and fruit, tofu and other really healthy items. ideally you should eat 50% green, 35% yellow and 15% red a day. I probably have 30% green and 70% yellow a day. i'm trying to increase the green but i just love all the things in the yellow category! definitely need to fill my diet with more veggies and fruits everyday. now i see why people get frustrated eating so many veggies. i LOVE them, but having to eat a ton of them everyday is tiresome.

Anyways, i'm off to get my daily coffee and pick up a few things at the store.
Keep you updated!
