day 34, 35, 36, 37

My food intake has been good.  I think I have the general idea of how much I should eat, so I haven’t been logging in my food onto myfitnesspal.com.  I just got done moving out of my apartment and have not have time to go out for my 3 mile walks.

My schedule for the next weeks will be packed with school and work so I won’t be able to exercise much.  This means that I will be eating between 1000-1200 calories a day since I can’t find any time to exercise.  On the days that I do exercise, I will be eating anywhere from 1200-1400 calories.

I have class on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 1:30-4:30.  I work right after class from 5pm-11pm….so…I really don’t have time to exercise, unless I wake up super early to exercise.  Hmm…that actually sounds like a good idea!  Maybe I will start walking my 3 miles in the morning since I do have time from 8am-12pm (4 hours) to do something productive.

I won’t be logging in my food intake anymore since I’ve been doing it for a month and we all have a pretty good idea of what I generally eat.  I did go grocery shopping with my older sister and bought 10 mangoes, 5 bananas, yogurt, blueberries, broccoli, potatoes, and bok choy.

Exercise:

Moving boxes, furniture, and cleaning for 90 minutes (approx 797 calories…I don’t think I am burning this much though)  I feel like the exercise estimation from myfitnesspal is overestimating..I don’t think I will be burning 797 calories!

Intake: 1345

Net calories: 548 (it’s only 8:36pm here, so I will probably end up eating about 400/500 more calories when I’m done moving so that my net calories is around 900/1000. :D)

Deficit: 1242

I think my deficit is closer to 700-800 than 1242.  I’m moving to a different apartment, but I’m not constantly moving for 90 minutes straight.  I’m not hungry at all, but we’ll see how it goes after I finish moving!
