I did it! I got through all of my exercise sessions yesterday even though I was stiff and tight from Monday. I was so tired by the end of the day that dinner was an hour and a half late though. That part's not so good. I tried a new recipe last night too, a stuffed chicken marsala. I tend to watch the Food Network while I'm doing my stepping in the afternoon and it sounded good. It was good, but only half a keeper I think. The sauce was excellent, but making the stuffed, rolled chicken breasts was more of a pain than it was worth. The recipe is here if you want to try it.
Anyway, yesterday's food:
Breakfast: Oatmeal, banana - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, salad - 12 points
Snack: Apple - 0 points
Dinner: Stuffed chicken marsala, Rice-a-Roni, zucchini, milk - 27 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 4 points
Total: 53 points

Short post again today...I'll try to make tomorrow's longer!

Exercise Surprise
I surprised the hell out of myself yesterday. My intention was to increase all of my exercise sessions to 25 minutes and add a second step session in the afternoon - but when the timer went off at the end of 25 minutes for my first round of step, I said, "25 minutes already?" So I went ahead and did 5 more minutes for a full 30! I did 30 for my afternoon round, too. That means between 2 30-minute step sessions and 2 25-minute boxing sessions, I exercised for an hour and 50 minutes! Almost two hours of exercise for somebody who not that long ago got out of breath going out to get the mail is fairly amazing, at least it seems so to me.
Yesterday's meals:
Breakfast: Oatmeal, banana - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, turkey pastrami wrap - 14 points
Snack: Apple - 0 points
Dinner: Meatloaf, baked potato, carrots, milk - 25 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 4 points
Total: 53 points
Calories: 2545
Calorie deficit: 2276
My whole body's feeling pretty stiff and tight from all the exercise yesterday, but surprisingly I'm not actually sore...I'm going to get through the sessions today in spite of being stiff, though. Sometimes being stubborn is a good thing!

A Somewhat Disappointing Weigh-In
It's Monday again...that means another weigh-in day has arrived. After increasing my activity level again last week, I was really hoping for a good number on the scale today, but I didn't get it. I did lose, but only 1.8 pounds. I know it's better than nothing, but I was anticipating a more significant loss.
The main reason for that was the numbers I've gotten for the last three days as I've double-entered my intake and exercise into both the WW tracker and the fatsecret.com tracker. Well, see for yourselves:
Friday
Breakfast: Oatmeal, banana - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, turkey pastrami wrap - 14 points
Snack: Greek yogurt with applesauce - 3 points
Dinner: Chicken with teriyaki, Rice-a-Roni, green beans - 22 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 4 points
Total: 53 points
Calorie deficit: 2276
Saturday
Breakfast: Oatmeal, banana - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, salad - 12 points
Snack: Apple - 0 points
Dinner: Flaky herb chicken, au gratin potatoes, corn, milk - 27 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 5 points
Total: 54 points
Calorie deficit: 2625
Sunday
Breakfast: Oatmeal, banana - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, turkey pastrami wrap - 14 points
Snack: Greek yogurt with applesauce - 3 points
Dinner: Sauerkraut & sausage, milk - 23 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 5 points
Total: 55 points
Calorie deficit: 1831
At least over the three days I've done the double tracking, I averaged 2244 more calories burned than consumed, and they were pretty typical days. I've already met and surpassed my goal of a 2000 calorie deficit per day. With 3500 calories in a pound of fat, if I'm burning 14000 more calories than I'm consuming in a week, I should be losing about 4 pounds! I really don't understand what's going on here. I considered the possibility that I've built some muscle and that's offset the fat loss, but the types of exercise I'm doing at this point really aren't big muscle builders.
I'm not giving up, though, and in fact, I'm increasing my exercise again this week. Both of my Wii Boxing sessions are going from 20 to 25 minutes, and I'm planning to increase my Wii Fit Free Step session the same amount in the morning, plus possibly add another session in the afternoon. I'm not sure about the afternoon session yet, we'll see how it goes today. I don't want to overdo it and end up not doing anything. I'll let you know tomorrow!

Yes, Exercise!
So the last couple of days have been very interesting. I was really excited on Wednesday when I finally figured out what I think is the issue underlying my lack of progress even when I stick to my program like glue. Since I believe the issue is that I'm not exercising enough, I immediately began trying to think of ways to get more.
The most obvious answer is walking, but unfortunately that's not very practical right now. After falling and spraining my ankle and hurting my knee last fall while walking on the gravel outside the trailer, I'm very reluctant to do that any more. The footing simply isn't good enough. At the beginning of the year, I was using my father-in-law's treadmill, but he's moved things around and it's no longer accessible. So if walking is out, what about other types of exercise? Well, there's certainly no room in here for any type of exercise equipment, and even if I wanted to leave the house, which I don't, we can't afford a gym membership. Finally, I decided that since I've been using the Wii for exercise up to this point, I'd just step it up a notch and get the Wii Fit. The software's got a 330 lb weight limit, but there are workarounds for that.
So yesterday morning, very excited to start out with it, I started setting it up. The workarounds for the weight limit are annoying, but I eventually got it ready to go and started trying some of the aerobic exercises. Rhythmic boxing? Fail. Hula hoop? Fail. Basic step? Fail, plus run into the furniture. Ouch. I was very upset and discouraged, and about ready to give up on trying to lose weight altogether, but Chad said he'd help me try to figure out a way that I could actually successfully use it once he got home. I wasn't very hopeful that he'd be able to, but I figured it was worth a shot...and he did!
He discovered that an activity called "Free Step" is very simple, doesn't take much space at all, and best of all, is actually designed to be used while you watch something else on TV! Basically, all it involves is stepping back and forth onto and off of the Wii Fit Board. Even I can do that - most of the time. I did it for 20 minutes this morning...I had planned to do it for 30 minutes, but I just couldn't make it. It was probably a little overambitious anyway. The software even gives you a formula for figuring out how many calories you burned during your activity. I was a little disappointed when I discovered that my 20 minutes only burned about 175 calories, but it's a start. When I add that 175 calories to my 350 for boxing (yes, I'm doing the Wii Fit in addition to the boxing) I'm up to 525! Over a quarter of the way to my goal of 2000 per day!
Anyway, food for the last two days:
Wednesday
Breakfast: Oatmeal, banana - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, turkey pastrami wrap - 14 points
Snack: Apple - 0 points
Dinner: Chicken and dumplings, milk - 25 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 5 points
Total: 54 points
Thursday
Breakfast: Oatmeal, banana - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, salad- 12 points
Snack: Greek yogurt with applesauce - 3 points
Dinner: Beef & vegetable stir-fry, rice, milk - 23 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 4 points
Total: 52 points
It's going to be a bit labor-intensive, but I think I'm going to start double-tracking my food and exercise. The WW tracker tells me my points values for everything, but since I'm trying to increase my exercise until I'm burning 2000 calories per day more than my intake, it would be somewhat helpful to actually know how many calories I'm consuming and burning, don't you think? So I'm going to go back to fatsecret.com and its associated Android app (thanks to Travis for reminding me of it!) to record everything as well. One of the really nice things about that site is that it automatically calculates the calories burned in 8 hours of sleeping and 16 hours of resting at your current weight, so once I enter my activities and exercise I'll actually get a fairly accurate number for my daily calorie deficit. Double-tracking is kind of a pain, but I can't think of another way to get all the relevant information, and once I get most of my main recipes entered it shouldn't take too long.

Exercise?
Last night marked my first real attempt at taking one of my old staple recipes and adjusting it to fit into my available WW points. Chad's mentioned a number of times that he really misses my beef stroganoff, so I entered it into the recipe calculator to see if it was anywhere close to a reasonable number of points. To put it mildly, it wasn't...37 points per serving. Generally, my entire dinner is in the neighborhood of 25 points.
Ouch.
So I started adjusting...light sour cream instead of regular, half the amount of butter, ¾ lb of meat instead of 1 ¼ lb (partially offset by increasing the mushrooms from ¾ lb to 1 lb), and 6 oz of no-yolk noodles instead of 8 oz of regular noodles. All these changes resulted in reducing the points value to 25 per serving. Much better! I was a little concerned about there being enough to eat after having reduced the meat by almost half and the noodles by a quarter, but there was plenty and then some. I wasn't even able to finish my half. I was afraid the no-yolk noodles wouldn't be very good, but they weren't bad...a little odd, particularly in texture, but not bad.
Yesterday's meals:
Breakfast: Oatmeal, banana - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, salad- 12 points
Snack: Apple - 0 points
Dinner: Beef stroganoff, green beans, milk - 30 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 4 points
Total: 57 points
So obviously over the last week or so I've been doing a lot of thinking about my program and my success - or lack of it - in losing weight. Since even in the weeks where I stick to my program like glue I'm usually not losing much, I've reached the conclusion that the problem must be in the other half of the equation - exercise.
The WW points system is not based solely on calories, but on relative amounts of protein, fat, carbs, and fiber. While I think this nutrition-based approach is a good one, in the end the basis of weight loss is burning more calories than you consume. Since the WW tracker doesn't give calorie counts, I entered a typical 55-point day in another tracker and came out at about 2400 calories. I find that interesting, since I calculated my Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) with a couple of different calculators and came out with that same number: 2400 calories. Your BMR is the number of calories that you burn simply by being alive. If I were to stay in bed all day and not do anything, that's the number of calories I'd use. Basically, then, since my intake is equal to my BMR, the weight I lose is dependent on the amount of exercising I do.
Over the last 3 weeks, I've increased my daily exercise quite a bit. The week before last, I started doing 15 minutes of Wii boxing every morning. Last week I increased that to 15 minutes of boxing in the morning and 15 minutes of swordfighting in the afternoon, for a total of 30 minutes daily. This week I've increased it again - 20 minutes of boxing in the morning and in the afternoon for a daily total of 40 minutes. I thought that was pretty good...until I looked up the number of calories it's burning. For every 15 minutes, Wii boxing burns 125 calories. That means that my 40 minutes is only burning about 350 calories or so.
There are 3500 calories in a pound of fat. If I'm only burning an extra 350 calories per day, that means I'm only going to lose a pound every 10 days! Obviously those 350 calories from boxing aren't the only calories beyond my BMR that I'm burning, since I'm not in bed all day, but I'm not entirely sure how to calculate the calories I'm burning doing the dishes and vacuuming and making dinner and sitting at the computer and so on. With 3500 calories in a pound of fat, if I want to average 4 pounds per week, I need to burn about 2000 extra calories per day. Now I just need to figure out how to do that...
Ouch.

A New Deadline
Sorry about not posting yesterday, guys...I started this post yesterday morning and came back to it about 20 times over the course of the day, but it just wasn't happening.
Weigh-in day yesterday. I was really, really hoping for a good loss to help me get remotivated and back on track...didn't happen. I stayed right on program all week with my food, I did 30 min of exercise every day, as far as I know I did everything right - and I lost a lousy 1.2 pounds. Yes, I know it's better than not losing anything and it's definitely better than gaining. It's certainly not very encouraging or motivating though. I wish I could figure out what I'm doing wrong.
Meals for the weekend:
Saturday
Breakfast: Oatmeal, banana - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, turkey pastrami wrap- 14 points
Snack: Apple - 0 points
Dinner: "Gourmet" pork chops, rice pilaf, peas, milk - 30 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 4 points
Total: 58 points
Sunday
Breakfast: Oatmeal, banana - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, salad- 14 points
Snack: Greek yogurt with applesauce - 3 points
Dinner: Sauerkraut & sausage, milk - 23 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 4 points
Total: 54 points
Monday
Breakfast: Oatmeal - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, turkey pastrami wrap- 14 points
Snack: Apple - 0 points
Dinner: Pork chops with sweet potatoes and pears, peas, milk - 24 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 4 points
Total: 52 points
Thank you so very much to those of you who commented on my last couple of posts or had conversations with me about them. I really, really appreciate your support and input on this. I think what I'm going to do as far as my deadline is concerned is change it to the end of this year. Since I was off program for so long at the end of last year, I think it makes at least some sense to call the switch to Weight Watchers a new start. The actual date of the one-year weigh-in will be January 2 of next year. In order to make the deadline, I'll have to lose an average of 4.8 pounds per week, which means I really have to figure out what I'm doing wrong, but at least it's a little more possible than the original one.

Still Stressing
Short post today, I'm still stressing out about yesterday's topic. I've managed to keep myself on the program, mainly I think due to already having the meals planned and sheer habit and stubbornness.
Yesterday's meals:
Breakfast: Oatmeal, banana - 10 points
Lunch: Tomato-beef broth, turkey pastrami wrap- 14 points
Snack: Greek yogurt with applesauce - 3 points
Dinner: Curried chicken & rice, milk - 22 points
Dessert: Pudding with Cool Whip - 4 points
Total: 53 points
On a slightly positive note, I did next week's meal plan and grocery list this morning and it went pretty smoothly. I'll talk about what I did differently in one of next week's posts.
