6 pounds in 15 days... I'm pretty happy with that. However, this is my 6th day being around the 428 mark and I'm beginning to think that I need to reduce my normal daily caloric intake. I'm going to do a 2900 calorie Refeed today but tomorrow I'm considering lowering my normal daily calories from 2300 to 2100 keeping it at 40% P, 30% C and 30% F. It's not a drastic drop and I know I can be satisfied at that level.
Regarding hitting the scale every morning... I know it's the best habit to get into but psychologically it's really difficult when you have so far to go. Day after day of seeing little or no change can be daunting at times. I know that once per week is not enough but I'm thinking that maybe Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays might be a good schedule for weighing myself. I'm going to mull that one over a bit before I change it.
The one thing I haven't worked into my life is exercise. I plan to buy an exercise bike but I haven't yet. Starting today I'm going to take a 10 minute walk each day around the yard, around the neighborhood or wherever I might be that day. Any place where I can fit in a walk. I have to start someplace and I need to start sooner rather than later.
