I've spent the morning investigating the percentages of carb/protein/fat, net calories, and other important stuff. My head is swimming.
I really like the list view aspect of this site as you can see the food and exercise calories with the net calories expended for each day all at once. I am faithful about logging every bite of food and every dumb thing I do to "exercise" -- washing dishes is in there most days!
I'm gratified to see that I have a deficit each day for my calories, but my research today is encouraging me to have a deficit of at least 500 calories a day. Since I was basically going by calories intake, this is new info for me.
From the info I've logged, this site tracks everything for me, which is gratifying. I just went over to My Fitness Pal and found that they don't have the same "exercise" options as this site, like "desk work". It's not exercise per se, but I'm expending calories and am not just "resting" all day. I like having that option.
Out of 11 days of tracking, I have managed to create a net calorie deficit of 500 calories on 6 days. The other five days show a net deficit, but not the desired target of 500. I find this incredibly interesting and it gives me something to shoot for, which I like. If I'm not at target, maybe a late-night walk will help, and that's do-able.
Yesterday was cheat day galore. I started off well with oatmeal and tea, and then rode right off the rails with two big Mai Tais for lunch. Shopping and Eggs Benedict followed. However, since I've been reducing my food intake for the past week and a half, I was full! I ate a piece of string cheese before bed (shared with the dog, but I counted all the calories) so I wouldn't wake up with a headache (mission accomplished) and so far haven't felt like eating anything today until just now (10:10 am).
I'm really trying hard to listen to my body and I feel that it's working. My goal for this week is to hit that 500 calorie target every day so I can drop this weight more efficiently, not just ounce by ounce.
