90 day challenge day 3

Today I weighed 89.1, a rather high gain from yesterday but of course it's not fat.  Food, water, whatever.  I'm not bothered.  Today I ate healthy but I ate too much.  I need to develop an actual eating plan, rather than just 'grazing'.  I ate 8,393 kJ and 121 grams of protein. Tomorrow I want to spend some time on developing a plan, let's see how that goes.

90 day challenge day 2

I never weighed myself today, because I had something to eat during the night, as I was hungry.  That's totally normal after eating a lot of sugar, in fact it's to be expected.  I kind of delayed weighing myself throughout the day, until it was obvious that my weight would be affected by my earlier eating.

I had an awfully large amount of fruit, which is something that I enjoy.  Plus some vegetables, a bit of cheese, and some tuna.  It was a pretty healthy day although I want to change things in the future so I'm not eating huge amounts of fruit.

My intake was 7,658 kJ and 99 grams of protein.  I wanted my intake to be less than yesterday, and my protein was higher than expected, but that's fine.  I'm going to tweak each day what I'm going to be eating, and slowly develop an organised system.

90 day challenge day 1

I got distracted by the impending doom of a global pandemic caused by COVID-19, it's something that I'm worried about.  I do actually feel looked after by the New Zealand government but people are losing their jobs and the government is basically trading off money vs lives, with emphasis on saving lives right now.  The government wants the New Zealand group of islands to be virus free, whether that is possible I have no idea.  With a doubling period of 4 days (10 times in 10 days) it's hard to make decisions since every minute counts, basically.  I remember being shocked when NZ closed it's border to anyone but citizens, permanent residents and their immediate families.

I happened to watch a Youtube video of a 90 day challenge by a woman who runs a website called Bloglates.  She seemed to know what she was doing, and had a positive experience, so I've decided to copy her.  Every day on this blog I will post how I'm going, my intake and my weight.  I might miss a day or two, hopefully that's all.

I want to lose 100 grams a day, so 9 kilograms in total.  Today I weighed 88.2 kg, so by the end of the challenge I want to be 79.2 kg.  If I can't do that, hopefully I can do something near that.

I'll post my intake number at the end of the day.

End of the day intake: 8,389 kJ, 22 grams of protein.  So today, as is pretty much compulsory with me and weight loss restarts, I ate a lot of sugary food.  It's a habit I've gotten used to, I doubt that's going to change anytime soon.  I had chocolate, soft drink, apples, chocolate biscuits and cheese.  Not particularly healthy but I'm fine for one day.
