Ok, restart.

The past couple weeks since I started this blog have been really up and down. It involved days of fasting, extreme exercise, and binging. I'm really struggling to find a balance, but starting today, I feel motivated enough to keep up with this blog and remain dedicated. At first, I started off kind of weary of the idea of feeling responsible to my blog, that I had to make sure what I did looked good for the sake of the people reading it. But, I've reached a point now where I think I can be honest with all of you.

For this restart, I'm changing some things. Instead of weighing myself every Friday, I'm going to do it every Monday morning. This week is going to be like my starting week, getting into the groove of things, and next week on Monday I'll establish my CW and work towards my goals.

I would really appreciate some followers, I'd really like to know that I'm being supported. I need it loves :(

So, without further ado, here is my first day of my warm up week before I really get going.

Calories
250 -- Baked french fries;
2 Eastern Russett potatoes cut into pieces and baked: 220 calories
2 tbsp. of Heinz tomato ketchup: 30 calories

180
-- Betty Crocker Wild Blueberry Muffin

108 -- Betty Crocker Wild Blueberry Muffins (mini version);
4 mini muffins, 27 calories each

300 -- Chicken;
Marinaded in Wishbone Fat Free Italian Dressing and grilled

80
-- Salad;
2 1/2 cups of Romaine lettuce: 50 calories
1/4 cup of cucumber: 5 calories
2 tbsp. Wishbone Fat Free Italian dressing: 15 calories
10 sprays of Wishbone Balsamic Salad Spritzer: 10 calories

280 -- Stewart's Light Cookies 'n Cream Ice Cream;
1 cup. NOT my finest moment. However, low fat and a good way to ween myself off of unhealthy things.

Total calories consumed: 1198

Exercise
100 -- Walking for 20 minutes

Total calories burned: 100

----------
Net calories: 1098

Evaluation: I would consider this a successful day. I did not exercise for a full 30 minutes, and I did have ice cream (ugh), but as my first real day towards recovery, I don't think it was too bad. Another thing, because I overestimate my calories sometimes, I think the chicken I had was actually around like 220-250 calories. Anyway, as time goes on, things can only get better...right?
