As it stands now my weight is 182, so i am down about 4lbs since last entry. Which is great, but i must push fourth and reach my next goal. I would like to get down to at least 178 by Halloween. So that is my new goal. 4 pounds by Halloween should not be hard at all. Hell as long as I lose something I will be happy.

So far I have had my breakfast at 7am this morning. I will be eating my first snack around 10am, my lunch at 1pm, my second snack at 4pm, and my dinner will be at 7pm. As I mentioned earlier in this entry I created a daily chart. This is what my chart consists of.
Ate on schedule
Ate 3 meals
Ate 3 snacks
Included protein, fat, and carbs to each meal and snack
drank 91 oz of water
physical activity for at least 20 minutes
multi-vitamin and Omega 3 supplements
Im not perfect, so I dont expect to follow this to a T. But, it will show me what I need to improve on, and what I am doing right. I will add more to this entry about the other meals and snacks. And I WILL keep track of this every single day until Halloween.
