Another bad weekend

Over the weekend, I did not log my foods. And when I stepped on the scale this morning, I could totally tell. Sure, I'm weighing in at 5:30 am after not really sleeping very well, but in the course of 3 days I gained 7 lbs. I ate chips (so my sodium intake is really high) and didn't eat many veggies. I don't feel great at all. You think I would learn my lesson - that eating late at night usually means that I don't sleep well and I end up with a stomach ache. I'm going to do well this coming week and then I'm on vacation. So I'm going to do well for the next 5 days and then try to have moderate days away from home.

Thursday: Ate 1871 - Burned 2695 = Balance 824

A few more night shifts

Tuesday (working nights): 1716 - 3042 = 1326
Wednesday (called in to work nights): 2357 - 3274 = 917

I just need to do activity when I work nights. I have gone for walks on breaks - it is just hard to do consistently. And today - it is a lazy day - I had to get up early for a hair appointment and only slept about 3 hours. Which isn't great for weight loss. But planning on getting a great sleep tonight!

Just okay

Monday (working nights):
Ate 1735 - Burned 2624 = Balance 889
Not bad, but I didn't drink enough water. I also didn't do any extra activity. I ended up sleeping all day. Normally I'm not that tired, but I just couldn't stay awake. So I'll go to bed now and hopefully get enough sleep for work tonight!

Sunday's Balance

I'm off to work tonight. I think it is going to be a long night - I'm just a little tired....

Sunday: Ate 2858 - Burned 2996 = 318
But I hardly drank any water... and I had an ice cream treat because it was someone's birthday... Not a great day.

All that walking at work

Saturday: Ate 1681 - Burned 3528 = 1847

Walked 11948 steps. But after work, I was feeling stiff (and old) so I did some yoga. It sure made getting up easier today. And I just finished a 15 minute stretching period now and I think I'm ready to take on another day!

More aware

I realized last night (when I felt like snacking), that I was actually thirsty and tired. So instead of finding something to eat, I had some water and went to bed. It was a great decision! Sometimes, before I realize what is happening, I have eaten everything that is bad for me and then I realize I'm thirsty. I'm trying to be more aware of what I'm eating. Sometimes it even works!

Ate 1669 - Burned 2644 = Balance 975

Extra Shifts

I worked a couple extra nights shifts. I didn't have much time to plan my food, so I think I did pretty good.
Wednesday: 1983 - 2649 = 666
Thursday: 2826 - 3193 = 367
I tried to drink all the water I was suppose to, but I find it hard to do when I'm working at night. And I probably had food that was much too salty. But overall - not a bad couple of days!

Trying harder

I ended up working an extra shift last night. And after the couple of short walks I took during the day, I did pretty good.
Ate 1619 - Burned 3056 = 1437 calorie deficit

And took 10274 steps. Pretty good. And I drank all the water I was suppose to. I have to keep this up now.

Bad weekend

Okay - I should know better than leaving logging of food 2 days after I ate it is pretty much impossible. I can never remember what I ate. I was pretty tired this past weekend working nights that I didn't log my food. Now I'm really struggling to remember. But if I remember correctly, the slip up on July 1 carried on for a few days. I need to really get back on the wagon after I fall off. So these values (I think) are pretty close.
Saturday July 2: Ate 3310 - Burned 2858 = 452
Sunday Ate 1397 - Burned 3202 = 1805
Monday Ate 3916 - Burned 3107 = 809

NOT very good. I'm going to try harder. To meet my goal of burning more than I'm eating, I went for a walk this morning when I got up. I'm picking up a few extra shifts this week, so I'm going to log my meals better. And I'm going to drink more water. At least 2 liters a day. That's the plan for this week.
