We are at 8 weeks and I am getting much closer to my goal and I lost 2.3 pounds lost.  I too one day off.

Exercise:Runtastic Distance and Steps

Runtastic Distance with Steps

During the seventh week, I had a great week of exercise.  I walked a total of 37.28 miles and averaged 5.3 miles per day.   I did take Tuesday off.  I continued to pushed myself this week and added 6 sets of push up and setups every other day with 40 of them per set.  

 

Runtastic Monthly Average

Figure 2: Runtastic Monthly Average: Above it a 28 day average.  I walked 181 miles for the month with 355,376 steps.  That seems like a lot of steps.  Heck I burned 16,000 calories and that is over 4 pounds of calories burned with just exercise.

Pretty good month and week.  Figure 3 shows that I averaged over 5 miles per day for week 8 and 6.46 miles per day for the month.  My best day was 21 September with 8.83 miles.

Lose it - Calories by Macronutrient

Figure 8: Lose it – Calories by Macronutrient: Image of the Calorie and Macornutrient consumption for 2 weeks.  

I averaged about 1300-2220 calories which is a deficit on the average of 300 calories a day or 1200 calories a week. That is just under 0.33 pounds on weight loss from my diet.  So how did I complete week three successfully. 

 

The weekly summery of calories deficits does show that I did have deficit decrease for the week.  I am pretty close to my goal.   

Almost done and I go on leave in a week.  I have some buffer for the PT test in October.
