So here are the results for today and yesterday I weighed in at 239.1 pounds and today I was 237.9 pounds which totals a total loss of 1.2 pounds. I am happy with that result, and now let's get into how much I walked (it's insane really) but I'm not sure if I can do it on a daily basis.
The Workout app tells me that I walked today for a total of 4 hours and 6 minutes. The total distance I walked was 17.66 kilometers. The total calories burned was 2,282 calories and the average BPM per hour was 122. I think it's been ever since I reached the 260 pound range that I haven't really felt out of breath, which is a huge improvement.
What I ate today?, I had a small glass of milk before I left around 1PM and some sort of Masala frozen meal which was rice, chicken and some indian sauce on top. I knew today was going to be a hot one and that's basically why I made sure I ate something before I left.
While I was out and about walking, I did stop to eat some Chinese food which was Chow Mein and some battered fish and spicy chicken. I did drink some water along the way but I mostly drank that Gatorade you can get with 0 calories, so it basically has aspartame in it, and I also had some fruit juice from the grocery store that said "Zero Sugar" so that probably had Aspartame in it too. I had a tall beer when I got home to kind of reward myself in a way, and I think it was around 300 calories-ish.
I wore a hat today and it may have made a difference in keeping the sun off my face and I also have a fishing hat but I have yet to try it out. For the next few days it's supposed to rain so that should be easier on the my skin... hopefully. When it's sunny again I probably will start using sunscreen again (I should of started using it from the very beginning).
I don't know what my motivation was behind walking for over 4 hours today but if I can sustain this for more than one day I might try doing it every day. I think as long as I take it easy it might be achievable. I think tomorrow's results on the scale will be interesting, and hopefully rewarding.
Update:
It's pretty close to 12 at night right now and I kind of cheated and had some frozen korean dumplings that I found at the grocery store, and on the box it says that box was around 300 calories. I had some cravings... and according to a search online it's common for cravings to hit you when you work out for longer than you usually do, but the effect of this varies differently from person to person. Maybe it's just my lingering cravings from the medication I was taking?, I don't know. I think I'm done for the day for food and drinks, so that's for sure all I got for now.
