She's got her daddy's tongue and temper, sometimes her mouth could use a filter

I am so out of control right now.

Today I woke up at 127.8.

I knew I'd have to pay for my sins eventually.

Numbers always make me feel better. Math is reliable. Nothing ever changes. So I'm gonna do some calculations...

If:
3,500 calories = one pound
My BMR = 1432.7 rounded up to 1433
And I eat roughly 1,000 calories/day

I lose 433 calories a day. Which is equal to a pound lost every seven or eight days. (433*8=3897)
Basically a pound a week.

However,

If you do all the same calculations, except you substitute 1,000 for 500 calories/day, you get:
933 calories lost per day. Which is about one pound lost every four days. (933*4=3732)

If I start Sunday, on 1,000 calories/day I weigh 118 pounds by the first full week in August. UHM. NO.

But, if I start Sunday, on 500 calories/day I weigh 113 pounds by the first full week in August. Better.

Much, much better.
