Sunday & Daily Health Report for June 20

Tweet

You never know when the weatherman will be right. Today is not one of those days. It was supposed to be raining all day. I'm sure all fathers are happy with the sunshine instead of rain. It's a beautiful sunny day. We did get rain overnight and a lot yesterday. I just got home from church. It was a different morning. Last night I realized I didn't get a call from the pharmacy and looked and sure enough, no medication. I was up early this morning, nothing unusual about that, and headed over to Walgreen's to pick up my medication and find out why they didn't call me. I actually forgot all about it until last night. Otherwise, yesterday was a good day for food and fitness. Here are the numbers. Food - 2 Bananas, 3 Eggs, 2 Potatoes Calories: 610 Sugar: 26 Carbs: 98 Protein: 26.2 Sodium: 212 Fat: 15.6 Potassium: 2174 Snack - 1 Banana Calories: 90 Sugar: 12 Carbs: 23 Protein: 1.1 Sodium: 1 Fat: 0.3 Potassium: 362 Lunch - 1 Whiting (fish), 5 Servings French Cut Green Beans, 1 Potato, 1 Serving Lite Sweet Vidalia Onion Dressing Calories: 515 Sugar: 21 Carbs: 67 Protein: 34 Sodium: 160 Fat: 6.5 Potassium: 1690 Snack - 2 Servings Triple Berry Blend, 1 Serving Veggie Straws Calories: 270 Sugar: 17 Carbs: 48 Protein: 3 Sodium: 290 Fat: 7 Potassium: 530 Total Macros: Calories: 1485 Sugar: 76 Carbs: 236 Protein: 64.3 Sodium: 663 Fat: 29.4 Potassium: 4756 Fitness Steps: 15,730 Miles: 5.9 Activity/Exercise: 73 Minutes Water: 4 Bottles Calories burned: 2208 Total calories: -723 Weight: 192.0 There's been a trend in the last few days. I'm going to slash that trend today. I'm doing a fast to get rid of all the toxins and water weight. I have no idea why my weight is going up when I'm not eating stupidly. I needed the Veggie Straws for the sodium and the potassium yesterday and I achieved both. It's doubtful I'll see that again as I'm not going to eat three meals just to get all the potassium necessary. Doing so upped my calories to a level I didn't want to see. I am not a happy camper this morning. I'm going to lose this awful weight before my birthday. I have just under a month to make it happen. Otherwise, I'm happy with the fitness side of things. I'm getting my steps and my exercise. It's going great. I just need to get rid of the water weight. So today is a water day. I'm not eating. I don't know how long I'm going to fast. It might be a couple of days. Don't panic. I need to fast for that awful colonoscopy test and that's three days, I can do this for a couple of days too. Once I start eating again, turkey bacon is back on the menu. I've had a hard time getting my sodium since I took it off the menu. It's back. Okay, that's my story for food and fitness. How did you do yesterday with food and exercise? Thanks for reading. Image courtesy of Pixabay.
