Another great day at the gym. Mostly cardio. I quickly realized that it was my food intake and not enough cardio that was keeping me at maintaining my weight and not dropping.

It has helped so much to log everything I eat and count the calories. I know at the end of the day how much more I can eat or not eat. Last 2 days I have done great.

If I want to lose the 10 pounds in 12 weeks I can only eat 1569 calories a day, so my choices have to be good ones or up more exercise. Yesterday I had no problem hitting the calorie mark and I was not hungry, but made great choices.

I do need to up my water intake. Any suggestions?
