Urgh I was doing so well today... until my flatmate comes back and brings with her all the ingredients to make an amazing chocolate fudge cake. Of course i couldn't say no to helping her because she could see I wasn't doing anything. She opened the white chocolate for the chunks (white chocolate = ultimate weakness) and it went all down hill from there... I even licked out the bowl and whisk. Fatty fatty fatty.
I was so pleased this morning when the scale said exactly 116 lbs. That means I've lost 1.6 lbs since yesterday. No doubt most of that will go on, since in addition to eating the mixture, the smell from the kitchen means i will probably not be able to resist a slither of freshly baked goodness. Hopefully I'll be able to not offend her by just having a taster mouthful.
I also found this really good site that tells me how many calories my body needs per day.
My results are as follows:
At rest, my body needs: 1,355 calories
(this is my BMR)
For typical daily activities, my body needs: 542 calories
It also says to lose 2lbs a week I need to eat 1,400 calories and burn 503 calories. This is waaaaayyy too many calories to take in :O.
Looking at another site, it says that for my height and weight i should eat 1,205 calories a day for fat loss or 928 calories for extreme fat loss.
Well for the past 2 day I've been allowing only 800 calories a day and so far I've managed to stay in the 700s until my slip up this afternoon. This makes me 77 calories over my limit today (I have already factored in dinner).
I was also wondering whether to factor in fruit and veg, which is most of my calorie intake (I always do anyway)...???
Today's plan (I always plan before I eat anything so as not to go over my limit for the day):
Breaky:
Banana
Greek yogurt
Honey
2x Malt loaf slice (definitely didn't need these)
Calories: 363
Lunch:
Grapes
Mandarin
Calories: 139
Dinner:
Wild Mushroom soup
Spinach leaves on top
Calories: 125
Snacks:
Apple
Peanut butter
Urgh and cake mixture :( I would have been under without this.
Calories: 251
Total : 877 calories

I hope i lose tomorrow morning. If not it will have taught me not to unnecessarily snack.
Any tips will be greatly appreciated :)
