Okay, so here is my day as of 8pm:
Ate 2 chicken sausages and 6 egg whites
Went to Humane society, walked dogs for 2 hours
Had Drs. appointment and was early. I parked about 1/4 mile away and walked to office. Went across the street to the Hospital and walked up the stairs to the 5th floor. After appointment walked back to my car.
On drive home, stopped and bought bag of pork rinds and diet soda...ate half of bag...2 ozs
Stopped by friends on way home, parked about 1/8th of mile away. Walked back to my car after.
Stopped by store on way home. I bought 2 heads cauliflower, an onion, some chicken thighs, a 18-pk of eggs, and a 6 pk of diet soda. I walked the majority of the aisles in the store on purpose....I parked as far away from store as I could.
Got home, took eager dog for a walk in park down the street, threw the tennis ball and walked towards the ball,moving slowly around the park, then re throwing it further-- for about 15-20 minutes until dog got tired. Walked back home.
Cauliflower chopped and microwaved for 10 minutes, then sprinkled with Cajun spice, onion powder, a little garlic, and some paprika...I like the dark red stuff cause of the flavor..but it also gives the white cauliflower a "bbq'd" dark color that is appealing to my eyes. Oven 400 for 45 minutes...10 minutes with chopped onions. De-yoked 6 hard boiled eggs. Dinner: 1 lb. cauliflower, 6 egg whites, 2 chicken sausages:
Numbers so far per Fitbit dashboard: 1436 calories, 37.2 carbs(under 50 is outstanding) which are ALL good slow carbs, only 10% of my calories came from good carbs, 203 grams of protein.
I've walked 5.58 miles, walked 12,403 sreps, had 20 minutes of very vigerous activity(low for me), and burned 2978 calories.
On a plan to lose 25 lbs in the next month, I can eat 980 calories from 8pm now till bedtime. I'm not hungry at all...If I do get hungry I have a small potion of what I cooked left over.
I can sit and do nothing for the rest of the night if I want to...I'm reading my email, Facebook...watch my fav college basketball team just win a game. Thinking and planning my day tommorrow INCLUDING what I will eat, what excersize I will do, etc.
I won't sit still though...during commercials I will get up and move, watch tv on an exercise ball. I will go out and walk my dog before I go to bed. I'll probably add another mile, mile and a half no sweat.
I have not sweat at all today, I've never been even slightly hungry. I will weigh myself in morning, be happy, and do it all over again.
YOU GUYS CAN DO THIS!
Hope this helps! Greg

This is fantastic. Your food choices are WONDERFUL (and actually, they're Paleo). It's really nice in a lot of exercize without sweating!

Well done @Blackbandit ! This is a really awesome thing to read when you hit the weight loss wall (that time where you are frustrated with the diet or don't see the results); it's super helpful to know that small tweaks on your day-to-day life can lead to big improvements.
Great job!
