Calories

So I'm all about calories now.  I can have 1700 a day.  If I exercise then I can have more, but I'm trying to stay focused on the 1700.  This week I have done well and have lost 3 lbs.  More importantly, I've kept off 3 lbs.  Goodbye 260's...I hope I never get to back to you.

Once I get the hang of the calories, I'll delve deeper and focus on FAT calories.  One step at a time though.  Right now I'm trying to figure out how all these food blogs say making your own overnight oatmeal is better than store bought, but the calories don't match.  1/2 cup overnight oats is around 250.  1/2 cup of instant oaks (banana cream) is 160.  I suck at math but even I can figure this one out.
Must be the milk.

Still working on motivation.   For example, I should be at the pool right now.  But I'm sitting here instead eating some overnight oats about to watch another episode of Alone (I like learning things).  I know the pool water is cold from recent rains but I have an aquatic center I can go to as well (for free) that has a heated pool.

Darn, just realized I need to go to Walmart and get some store bought waffles cos my husband doesn't like belgian waffles on the waffle maker.  Sigh.  I really hate shopping.
