2/27... Goal, Toll and In-Control* Total Daily Calories: 1738


According to the Weight Maintenance Calculator for Woman (link below) at my age (50),
height (5’10”) and exercise level (light exercise/activity) I need to consume 1960.4 calories daily to
maintain 180lbs. Said another way, if I eat 1960 calories per day – I will eventually reach my
goal of 180lbs. To accelerate the process, I can reduce the calorie count even further.


180lbs is my ultimate goal. But to get there I’m going to have to set a bunch of smaller goals. To start, I’ll begin each month posting a new goal, one that can be easily tracked and recorded. I’ll also set incremental weight loss goals probably every couple months starting on March 13, once I have weigh-in results. But first things first…

Tomorrow is the last day of week 7 and 14 days of Case Study Data. Yipee! I’m getting very excited about that. Another thing I’m pumped over is a new addition to the calorie tracker – I’ll be adding an asterisk (*) in front of all foods that are Positive on the IF Scale. I expect this list to grow in the coming weeks. My goal is to add lots of anti-inflammatory foods to my daily tracker until I reach 50% à consistently. That will not be an easy task – have you seen the IF list? I’m not a big fan of dandelions and baked spot (huh?) Historically, my diet could pretty much fuel the sun (according to the IF).  But times, they are a changin. I’m gonna cool off the inside whilst heating up the outside (I crack myself up). Seriously, I’ll keep you posted.




Here’s the tracker for today:
