Below is what I wrote on Saturday, June 27th, right before going on a long walk and later in the evening on that day I forgot to finish the post so I'm just going to include it in the post for June 28th...
Written on June 27th:
So two days ago being June 25th, I still did my normal routine and decided to have a few drinks with some Chinese food and I definitely went overboard and I think it was yesterday that my weight on the scale came in at 242.5 pounds, which I kind of expected it to go up anyways because of all that food I ate the night before.
Today, my weight was 241.0 pounds and I guess I can't complain. I haven't really missed a day of walking for 2 hours or more so that's probably making a difference and also, I haven't missed following the OMAD routine either.
I honestly think that if I wasn't able to be able to have some breaks once in awhile and eat something very delicious, I would probably crash and burn on my diet goals. Today, I decided to start keeping track of my weight loss by
creating a dedicated page on this blog where you can see on which dates, how much I weighed and that way everyone can track my progress. I should of started doing this a few months ago or maybe even from the very beginning but, I guess you can't be perfect.
I actually had some sort of spreadsheet that I had started before but it wasn't made public and I ended up deleting it at some point in the past. Anyways, I have one now and that's all that matters. I think today what I will be eating is maybe Spaghetti and Meatballs with a can of Zevia before I go on another long walk for the day.
According to the restaurants menu, this meal is some where around 1760-2000 calories so I may just eat only half of it and have the other half tomorrow maybe. It seems to be a sunny and cloudy day outside right now so I won't need to worry about bringing an umbrella and it's not going to be super hot either so that's great.
I checked my Workout app on my smart watch to see what the statistics were of my walk today when I got home but something didn't seem right so I decided not to share anything in this post because I don't even know if it's even accurate. I will see what it says tomorrow after going on a long walk, we'll see then.

So I weighed myself after having a shower today after waking up and the scale showed 238.2 pounds which I am actually happy with for sure and honestly I had a few drinks last night with that large meal I had which I don't do this every single day, only once in awhile. Before those drinks I had a coffee crisp chocolate bar which was around 260 calories according to the wrapper.
What do I plan on eating today?, well I still have left over spaghetti in the fridge and I might just finish the rest of the perogies that are left in the freezer maybe. After a long walk today I may have a small 300-400 calorie meal later in the evening just to keep me going.
Today I did walk for about 10.53 km's for a total of 2 hours and 24 minutes with 1,290 calories burned and last but not least had an average heart rate of 114 BPM per hour. I did indeed get home and eat a 400 calorie meal which was some sort of Buffalo Chicken Mac & Cheese that I found in the frozen section at the grocery store. I had two beers as well.
Maybe tomorrow won't be a very good result on the scale because of those beers but when I got home tonight I was feeling kind of weak and it may have been because of the medication I'm taking but I felt that I should have something smaller to eat.
We'll see what tomorrow brings for the results on the scale and change some things if needed. I sometimes feel I'm not learning anything when I realize I've eaten too much, but, I still know that I have already lost over 90 pounds and there is a damn good reason for it. Persistence.
