I called William on my way home from work today to talk to him about going swimming early in the morning. He is okay with it. I asked him if he had stepped on the scale today. He said he had lost 2.3 more pounds. I asked him how he felt about it, because he said it like it was no big deal again. “Okay I guess, I have been here before and put it back on.” He said. I told him he should be pumped! He is only working out a few days a week, and he has not changed his diet and he is losing weight.
William has done Weight Watchers in the past with no success. He has also worked out with me, but I did not push when he had an excuse. Not this time! I am getting up at 4:30 in the morning to make sure he sticks this out.
We also talked about logging his calories so he knows how much he is eating. I am hoping that keeping a log of what he has eaten that he might see where he can improve. He told me that he had Wendy’s for lunch today. I was a little disappointed because eating fast food you can rack up the calories quickly. But he told me that 2 weeks ago he ate fast food everyday for lunch, so one day a week is an improvement.
Tomorrows work out is going to be an hour of swimming and maybe some biking at the gym. Hope he is ready in the morning an hour of swimming at his weight he will burn about 1500 calories. Now, only if he does not answer that Wendy’s craving tomorrow, it will be a big day!
