Have I mentioned that I give little creedence to the calories in/calories out theory of weight loss? That is the idea that if you consume less calories than you expend through metabolism and work, you cannot help but lose weight. Of course, in the short run, this is definitely the case (I have used Nutrisystem, and friends have been successful on Weight Watchers, both based largely on this idea), but studies have shown that, long-term, most people gain back more weight than they lost using this method. It has also been shown that, when consumption of extreme excess calories is done on an irregular basis (like my cheat day), the effect on weight loss, if any, is enhancement, not the stall that calories in/calories out would predict.
No pictures today - I was without my cellphone (which I use to take all my blog pictures).
This is what I ate:
For Breakfast: Coconut oil-sauteed baby spinach, black beans, one large organic egg and a 1/3C of egg whites.
