Default Day 45 -- Still 23 pounds gone

Day 45 and still 23 pounds gone

Got on my scale today and saw that I had not lost any more weight. Oh,
well! Time will pass and the weight will come off. As Dr. Faustus said
in Marlowe's "Tragical History of Dr. Faustus": "The stars move still,
time runs, the clock will strike, the devil will come, and Faustus
must be damned." Well, I'm probably not going to see the devil in the
near run (and I don't think I did anything this week to single me out
for damnation) but there is a clear inevitability to the passage of
time. In a 150 days I'm going to be 150 days older - I might as well
be 150 days healthier.

I got back quite late last night - at least for me (9 PM) - and did
not have a chance to walk before bed.

My behavior is now shaped up fairly well. No emotional turmoil over
limiting my calorie intake, no feeling of outrage that I'm limiting my
food choices, etc. I'm still keeping my calories well below my
maintenance intake - maybe about 1500 calories yesterday.

At 1500 calories a day and using a weight base rate of 200 pounds
(this weight understates my weight deficit), I would lose about the
following amount of weight in the following days (they are in 5 day
intervals).

Day Lbs Scale weight
Lost
5 1.6 240
10 3.1 239
15 4.7 237
20 6.3 236
25 7.9 234
30 9.4 233
35 11.0 231
40 12.6 229
45 14.1 228
50 15.7 226
55 17.3 225
60 18.8 223
65 20.4 222
70 22.0 220
75 23.6 218
80 25.1 217
85 26.7 215
90 28.3 214
95 29.8 212
100 31.4 211
105 33.0 209
110 34.5 207
115 36.1 206
120 37.7 204
125 39.3 203
130 40.8 201
135 42.4 200
140 44.0 198
145 45.5 196
150 47.1 195

My target is 200 pounds (or slightly less) will be reached in about
145 pounds on this intake level. At 1200 calories a day, I would reach
the high 190's in about 110 days. I think I'd rather do it more
quickly than more slowly and so I will try to nudge my calorie intake
down to 1200 a day.

Looking at these numbers helps remind me of the behaviors I need to
reach my goals.

Anyway, I hope everyone has a great Valentine's Day, and a great rest
of the week!

Yours truly,

Caleb
