Monday was weigh in at work and the scale said 248.2 - which is upsetting because the scale at home says 242. Whatever.
Also worth noting - the much-taller-than-me-not-so-in-shape-male director in my building weighed in at 240.2 and he's rubbing it in that he's lighter than me.

| New short-term goal: weigh less than him. |
So far it's been a successful two days. Confession - I had 3 beers for dinner last night (plus some bites of a friends pizza calzone something). HOWEVER COMMA it was trivia night and I had a sitter for the first time in forever. I still had room in my daily calorie limit for food but I wasn't really hungry for maybe the first time ever. I'm calling it a win.
I never said I'd get healthy - I said I'd lose weight.
Serious Time Below This Point
(because you should take weight loss advice from a fat person)
5000 Steps/Day & 10 floors climbed each day
This is really hard when you work an office job tied to your phone & computer all day. Solution? I started taking smoke breaks again. I quit smoking a while ago, but I started going back out with them throughout the day. That's more steps taken, not to mention the added bonus of taking the stares up/down 3 floors each time.
I'm using a Fit Bit to track my steps and floors climbed. I would have no motivation without it. It gives me bonus exercise points when I go above my typical Sedentary (code for lazy ass) activity level.
Drink Water All F'n Day
It's pretty simple - if my cup is empty I refill it - and then I drink it. Rinse. Repeat.

Kinda Sorta Mostly Plan Meals in Advance-ish To Meet My Calorie Goal
I'm using MyFitnessPal. In order to lose the 30 by Thirty my daily calories are set to 1360. I'm packing lunches at work and eating reasonable dinners at home.
There's nothing crazy - add me on MFP as a friend if you want to see specifics.
My username is "Redcarpetwifey". (old username).
That's all for now.
