The first week

So I started last week with 235lbs, on Friday morning I was 222lbs, then weekend came, and today I was 225lbs. That's -10lbs in a week. Quite good. I hope I can keep up a similar pace until I get below 210lbs!

Weekend was tough... The only workout I did was washing and detailing 2 cars and mowing the lawn. The cars did look like they came straight from the dealership brand new... And my lawnmower is a push mower, but the size of the lawn is like a driveway (single car), so with raking I usually finish within 10 minutes. Let's not consider that these activities burned a significant amount of calories.

And we also barbecued (the weather was too nice!) :) Plus I tend to snack when I'm not occupied completely. Like watching TV and so on. I'm lucky only 3lbs came back on during the weekend!

How it ended up
And there were pancake's, too...

I also figured that I cheated a bit more than I wanted. A couple of pieces of chips, some nuts, BabyBells (light!) from the office's snack offering did land in my stomach during the week.

Overall I'm satisfied. And if my scale shows something below 220lbs by the end of the week I think I reached my goal for this one!

I'll watch the last 6 episodes of Bleach this week on the elliptical. They finished the show after 8 years and 366 episodes. I'm kinda sad. I liked it very much. Even though the best animes I've seen usually have 40-50 episodes max. If a show runs for that long, the episodes turn into 60% fighting 10% recollection, 20% talk to the enemy while you could finish'em off and 10% new story. But during the fights I realized I ride faster :) And 2 Bleach episodes are 5 mins longer than 2 Naruto episodes. Some more calories burned :)
