Day 16: Back in the game!

Weight today: 54,9 kg (121 lbs)
Goal weight: 55,2 kg (reached 06/11/11)
Change: -0,3kg (0,7 lbs)

After a bit of a rough beginning, my Consolidation Phase has continued quite nicely. During the past weekend, I ate some sweets and cheese crisps as a celebration meal, and guess what: it didn’t ruin my weight loss! In fact, I have been able to return to the figures I had before taking a bit of a setback.
So it seems to me that stating the rules clearly (which I did last Friday) has helped. Maybe this Consolidation thing can work after all…
Tomorrow, I am going to have my weekly pure protein day, so we’ll see how things go. Until further notice, I leave you with the menu of the day…

Menu of the Day:

• 2 slices of lingonberry rye bread with 9% processed cheese and yellow pepper 
• Beef with hot salsa and vegetable sauce (rocket leaves, onion, green pepper, tomatoes) 
• Fat-free cottage cheese (about 1dl ) 
• Apple crumble (second half of the batch I made last night) 
• 5 sugar-free licorice pastilles (hardly worth mentioning, but here goes anyway…) 
• 2 cups of black coffee 
• 3 small chicken breast pieces in a low fat coconut curry sauce (with onion & yellow pepper) 
• 3 wafer-thin slices of chicken 

Exercise:

• Cycling to work (15 minutes; 3km) 
• Cycling to the evening school (15 minutes; 3km) 
• Cycling from the school to the grocery store (10 minutes; 1,5km) 
• Cycling home (10 minutes; 1,5km) 

Total exercise: 50 minutes cycling, 9km (=5,6 miles)

P.S. We got our first snow today... I guess winter is really upon us! I'm hoping we won't get the -25C temperatures we've had in the last couple of years... My electricity bill would soar!
