CC start wt and CC start date: 197, 04/14/2009
Start Weight in November 1, 2009: 173.2
Goal Weight (by November 29, 2009): 169
Week 1; 08-Nov: 174. 
Week 2; 15-Nov: 175.2
Week 3; 22-Nov: 172.8
Week 4; 29-Nov:

Total monthly weight loss: -.4lbs

Sedentary Burn= 2130
Exercise Burn   = 577

2130+577= 2707

So your total burn is= 2707

Calories consumed = 1775


Total deficit = 2707-1775 = 932 cals

You're supposed to have a total deficit of no more than 1000 calories a day which would in theory help you lose two pounds a week.  You seem to be right on track with that deficit, but just remember that you'll need to eat considerably more then 1200 calories a day :)  Calorie count probably meant for you to eat that only if you were not working out.

I hope this helped!

Any Monty Python film.  Airplane.  Unrelated to the two before, I also love pretty much any romantic comedy... :p

I would recommend swimming for sure.  :)

I'm pretty sure that your body burns more calories naturally when it is trying to fight off illness, so I wouldn't cut back.  You want to make sure that you have what you need to feel better sooner.  :)

The crackers are indeed for crispiness :)  The whole thing was quite delectable!

Sorry about the confusion, I wasn't trying to start a snowball effect honestly.  All I meant was that in terms of scientific calories, which are units of heat energy, one calorie is equal to another calorie because they have the same potential in latent energy.  I would never insinuate that all calories are created nutritionally equal because that's obvious not valid.  Better fuel = healthier body :)

I wish all the best in your life change!

(Yay!  Where the heck did that come from?  That's super exciting!)

Technically a calorie is a calorie, but even though I'm only a lacto-ova veggie and not a vegan, I find that it is much easier to eat the right amount of calories thanks to lots of veggies and fruit.  Plus because you have to be careful about what you eat in order to be healthy you are more aware (in my humble opinion, and not that omnivores always don't) of what you put in your body so you can still get all of the nutrients for what your body needs.

These are my top played for working out...
