Calories and BMR
One of the most common pieces of feedback I’ve received so far for my 1 Million Calories Challenge is that 2739 calories per day are too many! Maybe everyone is right. I’ve definitely done more restrictive diets previously to lose weight and was able to feel fine for long periods…

1 Million Calories Challenge
TL;DR – January 1st, I start a countdown giving myself 1,000,000 calories for all of 2019. My cousin decided to do a push-up challenge in 2018 in part to improve his health. He completed over 37,000 push-ups during the year. His dedication to a challenge that he set himself was…

Weight Loss Update: No Loss
Well… I tried my hardest, but this week, I didn’t have any loss at all. I am super frustrated by this development. I didn’t indulge, or eat more than the points allotted to me. I had a deficit most days of 10 or so points. I earned 10 activity points,…

Weight Watchers Day Five Food
Sunday was supposed to be an easy day, but with a Nascar race on, I was planning on going to visit with some of Annie’s family and watch it. This meant having chili for lunch, with bread, and there was lots of chips and dip around, but I didn’t have…

Weight Watchers Day Four Food
Saturday, I was left home alone to fend for myself. And for most of the day, other than supper, I wasn’t responsible for anyone else. This is how most of my week usually is, so it shouldn’t have really changed my eating schedule too much. I have to admit that…

Weight Watchers Day Three Food
With the week ending, Friday is usually my worst eating day for two reasons. Firstly, I head to the St. George restaurant for Friday Office. I work from the pub, and eat pub food. Secondly, Friday night is usually more poor eating choices because I stay up late and get…

Weight Watchers Day Two Food
On day one, I thought eating 61 points was going to be hard, but today, with some choices, I came 4 points away from reaching that limit. I don’t think I made any horrible choices, but a few things took far more points than I was expecting. Morning 4 Points…
