Day 4

Day 4

17/11/16

So today was a bit of a lazy day. After not much sleep last night i decided it would be a good day not to leave the house, Plus the car was in the shop for a service and it was 30 degrees outside!! Not the best weather to take a newborn out in.

So today I decided to have a look at how many calories I should be consuming, so I looked at an online calculator and calculated how many calories a day I should be consuming. Apparently:

2,450 Calories = contain current weight
1,950 Calories = lose 0.5kg a week
1,450 Calories = lose 1 kg a week.

It also states that you should eat at least 1,000 Calories as a minimum to keep healthy. So my calorie intake goal is between 1,000- 1,450 calories a day. Also I don't eat enough fruit and veg, so my added goal is to eat at least a piece of fruit a day. Today I ate 2, a Banana and an Apple!! Yum!! Today i only got to 973 Calories, so almost there, mainly because I picked sleep over tea!! Also my Fitbit has an estimate of how many calories I have burnt for the day. So will be using that too. I read that It takes burning 3,500 calories to lose on pound of fat, which in metric terms is 0.45kg. So we are looking at just above the 7,000 calorie defect to lose 1kg. So by the end of each week i want to be at least -7,000 calories. An easy way to do these is aim for -1,000 a day (at least)

Slowly adding more goals, although they are simple goals to begin with.
