So far so good.  This a.m. weighed 170.8; BF 20.6%.  Weight 2.2 pounds down from previous day, so with light eating I was able to shed some weekend bloat.

Eating was completely under control yesterday:

Breakfast: two bowls of grape nuts and cheerios; two turkey sausage; 1 1/2 cups of coffee at home and a medium nonfat chai tea latte on way to work.

Lunch:  1/2 of a parmesan chicken breast, with tomato sauce and a hunk of mozzerella cheese and about 8 tater tots.

Dinner:  I didn’t really have dinner.  I worked out, was home close to 9:30, and to put a little post-workout fuel in my belly had maybe 10 grapes and 5 cherries and about 80 calories of lowfat strawberry yogurt.

O.K., O.K., so it wasn’t the most serious daily diet ever — seriously light on green vegetables, I guess — but it was within the parameters of my diet and it was definitely fewer calories than i burned yesterday.  I’ll get some greens today.  I count it as a success.

This a.m.:  1 bowl grape nuts and cheerios.  1 scrambled egg with Habanero pepper sauce.  The remainder of the yogurt (about 90 calories).  In the middle of two cups  of coffee.

I will drink a lot more water today.

Workout yesterday:  38 minutes on the elliptical machine at the gym.  Kept watts fairly high, around 270, and my HR was sustained around 150 for a fairly long stretch of it.  Burned 740 calories.

I may go running today.
