As of 8:44 pm tonight I calculated that I have only at 1274 calories today. I went to the gym this evening. The elliptical machines were busy so I jumped on the stationary bike for 15 minutes to burn 100 calories and then on the elliptical machine for another 15 minutes for an additional 100 calories. So if you subtract my eating calories minus my work out puts me at around 1074 calories for the day.

No I know that if you eat to few calories you will not lose but I am hoping this is not the case. I really enjoy keeping track of my calories throughout the day. It’s more entertaining than counting points. For Dinner I had two Arby’s regular roast beef’s at 310 calories a piece. For breakfast I had a bowl of cereal and for lunch I had a chicken salad sandwich.

I got that after workout metabolism going and feel really good! BTW: I am down 2 lbs since yesterday and 4 lbs total this week after starting a calorie restriction diet.
